Newfoundland Mis-Mash

I am falling FAR behind on my blog
due to the month break I took while in Newfoundland.

Being a month behind on photos isn't that big of a deal,
except for the fact that Elliotte is changing SO much
from month to month.

I'm now going to post the rest of the Newfoundland photos
that I put aside for the blog,
then will post some from our week long stay in Nova Scotia,
then some from our short time back at home
and THEN some more from our visit BACK to Nova Scotia.

Piper, Elliotte and I just got back to PEI again last night,
so hopefully by the end of the week, 
everything will be back to normal 
and I'll be close to having the girls' blog up to date!

Both girls are doing great.

Elliotte still isn't sleeping and seems to have a little cold,
but hopefully it will pass quickly
and we'll have our prefect little baby back to normal.

Piper is as busy as ever.

You'd think she'd be just as used to packing and unpacking suitcases,
as what her Mommy and Daddy are,
but she hasn't quite got the hang of it yet.

When leaving Newfoundland,
she went into my mother's room,
took a Harliquin Romance novel from my mother's bookcase,
placed in her carry-on 
and announced that she was taking it to read on the plane. 

(Insert amused head shake from her mother here!)

Then tonight as I was unpacking her bag,
I asked her to take her socks and put them in her sock drawer.
She skipped off with her arms full,
seemingly happy to help. 

I didn't think twice about this,
until I walked out into our front porch 
and found all of the socks.

Sigh.

Elliotte bounced in her Jolly Jumper for the first time.
Our beautiful bouncing baby.
We went to Chaz and Kristina's wedding.
I thought Piper would be most excited about seeing the princess (bride).
Nope.
She was more interested in seeing Uncle "Sill" Phil.
Big kisses for Uncle Sill.
My girls with Aunt Cindy and Uncle Sill.
Washing dishes with Nanny Gandy.
Silly girl watching her big sister wash the dishes with Nanny Gandy.
I have a feeling she'll still be licking her tongue out at Piper in years to come,
when Piper has to wash the dishes and she doesn't. 
Skyping with Daddy on his birthday.
We bought a frozen brownie mousse cake for him before we left PEI
and hid it in the bottom of our freezer.
His girls were very excited to tell him to go and find it
so that he could blow out his candle on his birthday!
Daddy and Piper blowing out candles together,
yet in different provinces.
Isn't technology great sometimes?
Group shot at a Lynch-Andrews family dinner with lots of little ones.
I'm not sure what the game was here,
but Piper must have walked Uncle "Sill" along Poppy Lynch's rock wall
at least fifty times... 
... and then launched herself into his arms at the end.
I think there is a reason that this little one
was more interested in seeing Uncle Sill than the princess at the wedding.
