More of Eleanor's Birthday

I'm certain that no one could possibly overdose on stories about my grandchildren, so even though Carrie has already posted a couple of delightful reports on Eleanor's birthday, I thought I would add more information and pictures.

I was impressed with the pretty dress Eleanor wore for her 2nd birthday, which was printed with flowers and butterflies–a pretty dress for a pretty little girl.

Among her gifts was this new backpack. She modeled it for us. It looks good with the dress.

She also got her very own lollipop drum, something we understand she loves to use in her music classes.

Now she also owns her very own pair of low top "Chucks."

And, to make her time in her kitchen even more fun, she received a supply of "food" in all the basic food groups.

Of course, no array of gifts for Eleanor would ever be complete without one or more new books.

Carrie had put lots of time and thought into decorating the house for Eleanor's birthday, including these two arrangements of flowers.


With a little help from Mom, Eleanor blew out the candle.

Then she got on to one of the more important parts of the day.

Happy Birthday Eleanor, and many, many more.
