Who wouldn't trust this baby to be left in Princeton without Mom and Dad? :) Ellie told us she was ready for a week with us because she wanted a visit with her grandparents all to herself. Nannie, Gung, and Grandma came to Princeton and stayed with Ellie while Phil and I went to Europe. Phil had a conference in Croatia, and we added on a few more days in Slovenia. Ellie loved every minute of her special week with three people who adore her (and spoil her rotten!)
Uncle Jonathan and Aunt Katherine came for a few days to help out. Uncle Jonathan was extra good at spoiling Ellie with her favorite snacks: Mum-Mum rice crackers. Delicious!
Grandma Connie went to swim class with Ellie - this is one of her favorite weekly activities! She loves the water and is starting to learn the basics of blowing bubbles, reaching her arms out in the water, and kicking.

A very special thank you to Nannie for all the countless hours holding Ellie, singing to her, and playing. You are the best! Phil and I enjoyed our vacation more than we ever thought possible because we knew Ellie was so happy at home with her three grandparents. Thank you for everything!
