Rolling Around

Since the last post, Elena has finally mastered the art of rolling over and sprouted her second tooth. She has also gotten very good at blowing raspberries and singing very high notes. We think she may be destined to be an opera singer. I've included a video of her playing and laughing with Daddy.

Last month we stayed with some friends back in Hastings. Elena attended her first wedding and was able to visit her friend, Nate. When they were lying side by side, they immediately held hands - it was pretty dang cute.

Progress was made by leaps and bounds on the house this last week. We had our friend, Jon, come down from the cities to paint as much as was humanly possible in the span of four days. My dad also came to help, and I was assigned the task of painting a railing in an area that would make a leprechaun feel cramped. Jon somehow mananged to prime the thing. I think he may have had a job as a contortionist at some point in his life. (I'll try to add a picture of the spot later).
