A few more weeks at the Sullivans saw all family members, a new truck, a Jesus cake, a Christmas light short, a Christmas tree spectacle, a first birthday and a new year. Whew. Yet after all that, tears welled as we packed our suitcases to move down the hill.
11 months
Last month, baby.

Our 11 month old (what?!) Evvie continues her approach to toddlerhood. We can calm a fussy mood by holding her hands and walking anywhere. She grins wide and squeals with pride (or so I project). She plays independently with plastic barn animals, rocking chairs, butter cartons, whisks, but her corolle babies (vanilla scented) are still the favorites. She coos for books to be read over and over again with Nana. The Good Night Train and Brown Bear Brown Bear are already showing wear.
