These pictures are from a wedding we attended on the Isle of Palms - absolutely beautiful!


Poor Eva had a terrible evening this past Tuesday. I had to spank her for the first time. She deliberately disobeyed me and then turned to laugh as if to say, "ha ha". That was not fun for either of us. Then she fell off the couch and bumped her head. Then I spilled her milk and she slipped in it trying to come see what happened. Then she spilled her spaghetti all over her legs trying to get one little noodle that had fallen on her toes. What a tiring hour and a half!

However, she is getting smarter by the day. She now knows several shapes, colors and can count to ten (with some assistance). I am constantly amazed at what all she knows. Just when I think I've got a handle on things, she does something I thought for sure she couldn't. Like climbing up on the coffee table all by herself!

We're in the process of switching from two naps a day to one. Some days it's easier than others. I'm following her lead on this, although the two naps really helped me get things done around the house. But I think she's better off when she only has the one. She sleeps better and then has more energy the rest of the day. Looking forward to having a relaxing weekend. Maybe a trip to the pumpkin patch?!
