The fuzziest thing in the world

And this picture especially for you, Ma.  Ella and Hannah playing Pioneers

Hannah is happy enough to participate in one of Ella's games.  Evidently eating pineapple out of a jar while rocking your baby is a necessary part of playing mama.

Dressed as spies...that's what they told me!  Joshua was hiding a camera made out of a block under his hat.  I guess the drawstrings are tied up for extra security?  Ella looks so inconspicuous, no?  The gloves of course are so she will not leave fingerprints.  And Gabes I think was dragged into the whole thing, maybe to make them appear "normal". 

 Dear Hannah- the bread was ready and you got plopped in the laundry basket:

Ella put on a "puppet show" for us using her hand painted scenery:

Nature Notes

 Picked some beautiful yellow flowers on a yet to be identified shrub

Glimpsed one striking fox streaking through the trees

Identified a Cooper's hawk using this fantastic website

Found one crane fly larva (pictured below)

One Month plus One Day

 I posted pictures for one, two and three weeks and somehow I neglected the big one month post!  So, here we are, one day late with some pictures from this past week.

 

Three Weeks!

Yep!  Our growing girl is three weeks young today...and so happy to be out in the fresh air and sunshine!

Two weeks!

Hannah smiling in her brand new birthday crown!  Thank you Doe!
