Geoff and Nel Sure Are Swell

Ellie and Nel

Ellie and Geoff

Finally got to meet Geoff and Janelle of Baby Bjorn fame. It was so nice of them to come all the way from Ohio to visit me -- even though I know the real reason they came was to hit up CBA. Nel and I bonded instantly. She's so good with kids. And Geoff was great too. He gave me this awesome new hairdo...

Who doesn't like a good comb-over?! Zayde, you might want to try this sometime.

Now if only I could get my mullet on.

Guy... er, Gal Smiley



I've been smiling for about a week now but we were FINALLY able to get one on camera. Check me out grinning ear to ear for Nel. Once Daddy got it he knew this video would make good blog fodder so he put everyone on the spot to say something profound. Mommy declared it her proudest moment ever... of Janelle. And Geoff chimed in to clarify that he "just works here." Fortunately, Daddy took the hint and stopped recording before this became another marathon video clip. Reminds me of a joke... what's the longest word in the English language? Smiles. There's a mile between the first and last letter. Tee hee.

I'm Big in Europe!

So I was checking my stats for the blog today and turns out I'm a huge broad... er, I mean, I'm huge abroad! Here's a map showing all the visitors to my blog. People in 17 countries are watching my every move... scary! Well I can account for at least one of them. Daddy's former co-worker Vanessa checked out my site from Germany. Thanks to her sister Val for giving me the idea for this post. And thanks to all my fans out there. I guess it really is a small world after all.

Workin' for the Man

Ellie at Daddy's office

Visited Daddy's office today. Everyone was so impressed by my search engine optimization skills, they offered me a job on the spot. I heard the Marketing team has an opening so I'm gunning for that spot. I even copped a squat on the Marketing Manager's desk to see how I liked it. So far so good. I hope I get the job. My first order of business will be to insitute naptime twice a day!

Brooke, Lauren, and Eliara

Got to meet Daddy's team at work, Lauren and Brooke (didn't recognize her without the wig!) They took turns holding me and teaching me about the QueryMatrix. It was truly fascinating. I never knew "findability" was a real word! What can I say... at this age, you learn something new every day.

My Future's So Bright...

C'mon, you knew that was coming.
