Eliana's New Friends from Bemidji

We spent a weekend in Bemidji, and Eliana was loved by many people. Here are few of the people that Eliana connected with.


We stayed at the Martin's house and Roberta held Ellie as much as she could.

On both Saturday and Sunday Anna held Eliana for extended times.

Mr. Wold came through while Eliana was fussing in her car seat. He picked her up and sang to her and she fell asleep right away!

Ruth held a sleeping Eliana so long that her back hurt!

It's so good to have friends.

Pictures of Eliana

Our friend Laura took some pictures of Eliana a few weeks ago. Here are just a few of them. She captured a lot of cute pictures of her!






Look who's learned to smile


The greatest thing about the last couple of weeks has been that Eliana is smiling more. She also "talks" to us. It's so much fun! Last night we even got Eliana to smile for the camera.

Eliana meets her Great Grandma Helen

Eliana is Grandma Helen's fifth great grandchild.

Ellie visits Lincoln

Ellie says, "Lincoln, why are you crying?"
"Stop crying, Lincoln."

"That's it, now it's my turn to cry!"


"Better yet, let's both cry together!""Only if our mommies hold us should we be content."
