Classic Elizabeth IV: The Wood Gnome



May 28, 2008: Elizabeth was not quite three months old. Uncle Scott was in Portland for the christening. And we all went hiking!

A Conversation With Elizabeth Rose



A penetrating and insightful interview with one of today's most talked-about personalities: Elizabeth Rose!

Updated: Barb listened to the video a couple of times and translated the two words I couldn't understand. When I ask Elizabeth, "What did you look at?" she says, "Spoons and cutting boards."

Give Me an E!


Barb has been playing in a kickball league. It's great, because it's gets us out to the park (usually with Grandma, and in the picture below, with Grandpa, too!), and there are lots of people watching the game, and it's in almost every way quite jolly.

Elizabeth is the team's official cheerleader. She likes the pom-poms, but is actually not too enthusiastic about the job. She'd rather mosey on over to the playground and see what's what.
