Last weekend for Memorial Day, Cara went to Destin, FL with her AU girlfriends and Andy and Elle spent the weekend in St.Simons with the Barfield family! Both parties had an excellent time! Cara enjoyed relaxing and catching up with her friends while the Barfields loved watching Elle enjoy the sand, the ocean waves, the beach club pool and the playground! It was a wonderful long weekend!
Elle had her first haircut today. She was so good and she was cracking us up with how serious she was about the entire affair. She loves her new cut... although I doubt anyone can tell that we did anything!

Teeth & Spaghetti
Elle is 13 months today! Here are some baby updates:
Elle has 6 teeth now - two on top and four on the bottom. She has added "ball" to her word list for a total of 5 words. She does not seem to want to walk although she enjoys holding our hands to walk but only when we initiate it (we are very happy since she is active enough crawling!). She loves most all foods (see spaghetti pic) which is such a blessing! She is now drinking milk after no longer nursing this month... She hated cows milk at first so this is a huge step. And she is allergic to eggs, which we discovered because of a nasty reaction to her Birthday cake! So things are exciting in the Barfield house! Andy and I are training for the Seattle half marathon at the end of June so we are getting in some serious mileage! We did 8 miles on Sunday! YAH!
Love to you!

Buckhead Church had an amazing Friday night service that we attended.

Happy Birthday to Elle
Wow - has it really been a year? It does not seem possible but Elle has been a part of our family for one whole year!!
We celebrated with a party with family, friends and neighbors on Saturday night! It was a party for the parents - a celebration that we made it through the first year! :) It was a wonderful time to hang out with many loved ones! Elle loved the cake - she ate lots of it and got it on every part of her body!
We have been doing a lot of celebrating; PapaSwan and GMom are here from Colorado and we had a family dinner with YaYa, Aunt Melissa and Uncle Drew on Thursday night. It is so fun to have all the family together!
Here are some pictures from the fun weekend!

11 Months Old
Time is moving fast! We cannot believe we are so close to celebrating Elle's first Birthday!
Here are pictures of some recent fun times with YaYa and at home.
Elle has a total of three teeth now and seems on the brink of walking but she is such a fast crawler that walking may not be on her radar!
