the weekend before the one year mark!

Jane Ellen is already getting into her presents. Thank you Beate and Gerhard ... Jane opened the VERY cute pajamas and the other gift will be for her big day. You both are so thoughtful - thank you. The flattering photo of Jane Ellen sleeping will make a few of you laugh - guess she gets that from her mom - mouth open while sleeping - just catching a few flies. Have a great weekend!

harvest and more

Jane Ellen loves her new cat teddy that Nana and Gramps sent. THANK YOU! We have been harvesting beans lately and Jane Ellen has been a big helper. She LOVES driving ... anything with a steering wheel. I think she takes after her Papa behind the wheel as you can see from the first photo ... honking the horn.

Lots of smiles

Even though Jane Ellen is in daycare now, we still get some smiles.

happy happy happy happy

Now that the sun has come out, it is time to harvest some peas. Zucchini, beans and beets are also ready. YUMMY. Oma, we got the same giggles out of her at home. Wish I captured her expressions at your house.

she's back...happy again!

Jane Ellen is back. Happy parents are we! Lots of laughing today and yesterday. Looks like an eye tooth has poked out too.
