My parents were here for a quick visit this weekend and they brought elsie a snuggable size “Mel-mo” which she has sinced pushed in her stroller, taken to lunch (wiped said lunch on) … well pretty much it has been her sidekick since.

Papa also picked out a new little dress at Nordstroms and when I came home today Elsie was decked out.

Just because you are a girl and wear a dress doesn’t mean you don’t play in the dirt

girls love dirt

On our way to the mail Elsie stopped for a chat with Papa Charlie, who introduced her to some wrenches

She was very impressed

and finally a shot of her preparing to steer the ship … who knows someone may need a pint size ship captain, I certainly know a very cute one that would fit that bill.
