Fall in Indiana

We're finally starting to feel settled in Indiana. We've made several trips around the state to visit family and we've enjoyed our new ability to see everyone more often! 

A few pictures of the recent months:

Enjoying a beautiful blue (Carolina blue?) sky in Indiana!


Ms. Julia at 10 months in a dress her cousin Sydney wore at our wedding rehearsal dinner in 2005. 

Elaina being silly in Chicago. We drove up for a weekend to see Jordan and Carmen while they were in town.
 

Julia playing in the "cabinet of doom". A few nights after this photo was taken, Julia fell and hit her chin on the shelf at the rear of the cabinet. She knocked her bottom two teeth loose and removed a large portion of the gum in front of her lower left tooth. After a bloody trip to emergency care, we were told that she will probably lose her left tooth. I'm happy to report that one month later, she still has her teeth! We're hopeful they'll stay put at this point. It's important to note here that she is named Julia Jordan after her uncle Jordan. Baby Jordan at 18 months old successfully knocked out one of his front teeth while playing. This was NOT the legacy we had in mind when naming her. 

Ms. Julia at her first birthday party. She's 1. OMG!

What a cute party hat. Thanks, Grammy!

Elaina is enjoying more and more the ability to "play" with Julia as she is getting bigger.

And that brings us to the present! We recently decorated for Halloween. Elaina LOVES the decorations.

Julia had fun with the decorations too!

Remember this photo of Elaina from 2009? 

And little Jordan from 1991? THIS is the legacy we had in mind.

Last but not least, Elaina has been enjoying the fall leaves. Happy Fall!
