Erilyn is two!

We love Erilyn's sweet smile and her easy ability to make anyone who sees her smile as well. She brings joy wherever she goes! She loves to color, copy Anthon, play chase and tickle, play with her baby, play with Shadow, jump on beds, and swim. We love our Erilyn!

Erilyn 2008 and at her party!


We tried to keep Erilyn's birthday this year minimal simply because we learned with Anthon that two year olds don't really care or remember all that much. So, we just invited our neighbors over to share cake and ice cream with us. It was great fun and both Erilyn and Anthon LOVE the play kitchen that we got her (a great internet steal!). The only drama came when Erilyn fell backwards off our couch, screamed, and then promptly fell asleep. We couldn't wake her for anything, so we were off to the ER. She ended up snapping out of it and is fine, but she was a bit sad and clingy all night. I had some nasty flashbacks of ER trips with Anthon--concussions etc., so we were glad she's okay!
