Elsa’s had a fun week so far this week!
We took a short outing to Phantom Lake, where we strolled her along the gravel trail. She seemed to enjoy everything except the ride home. Most babies (we hear) love riding in the car, but Elsa merely tolerates it. What she does not tolerate, however, is red lights. As soon as the car rolls to a stop, Elsa cries in protest until we start up again. Suffice it to say that we are learning which routes have fewer stops and how to slowly roll into red lights with the hope that they’ll be green before we get to the intersection!
Elsa laughed for the first time yesterday at a funny face Lynne was making. Her smiles are becoming more frequent, especially in the morning when she’s generally in her best mood of the day.
As a sort of warm-up for Valentine’s Day, we put on Elsa’s “pink hearts” outfit yesterday for the first time. She looked so cute that I had to take a few snapshots!

In driving school they taught me to slow down when a light is red so that it turned green by the time I got to the intersection. Good for gas mileage… and babies, apparently!

Such a wonderful color of pink!
