This week has been full and busy already. James did well in his classes last semester and started his summer classes this week--they are online, so we'll see how he likes them. Ben, James' brother, came to visit us for the past few days with Kyle who is Elise's age. Elise loved having her cousin Kyle here--when you put the two of them together they can make a lot of trouble!
I had some of the young women come to our house this week to learn to bake cookies, which was fun. The girls did great learning how to follow the recipe and working together. I realized how small our kitchen is when we tried to fit 7 girls and me in it at the same time!
Elise had a follow-up EEG test this week, we'll meet with the doctors next week to get the results. Hopefully all will be well and they'll take her off the medicine she's been on as a precaution ever since her February hospital stay. She did NOT like having the EEG though, you could tell she remembered what it meant when she saw the room and the hospital staff. She's strong for how little she is and she can put up a fight!
Here's a few pictures from our week...
Elise in her ladybug dress I couldn't resist buying when I found it...

Having fun at the park...
...climbing up to the top of the playground equipment...
...and finding the slide! She LOVES the slide, and even more, she loves going down the slide head first!Here's a little video of her climbing to the top of the playground equipment...
...and here's a little video of her gleefully going down the slide.

Ella absolutely loves the park too and so do we although we feel a bit old trying to keep up with her. We tire much quicker than she does. It is fun to see how Elise is growing right up.
