Hair cuts

 

Last weekend Elizabeth and Daddy both got their hair cut, courtesy of Mommy/Barb. Daddy looked pretty good with the standard one-inch trimmer cut, but Elizabeth had a bit too much of the Moe Howard-look for a few days until her bangs grew out.

Twinkle, twinkle, Little Star.



Elizabeth loves watching videos of herself. I hope we aren't fostering some sort of monstrously narcissistic ego in our little angel.

Latourell Falls



Back in early May we went to Latourell Falls in the Gorge. I had Barb take this "video portrait" rather than a still because... well, because we were standing in front of a waterfall. I don't think it was entirely successful, especially because Elizabeth always wants to camera in her hands if she sees it pointed at her.

Worth noting, however, is the fact that on this day Elizabeth hiked well over a mile on her own two feet, much of it a pretty steep uphill. Quite a feat.

Sorry.

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."

Stair-Climber: One Year Later



The video above is Elizabeth Rose climbing stairs for the first time on February 15, 2009. She is a couple of weeks away from her first birthday. We are at a vacation home (friend of a friend's) in Manzanita, OR.

The video below is Elizabeth Rose climbing the same set of stairs on May 16, 2010.

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.
