"she was that good"

we had a family outing today. we went to the mall to replace j.'s glasses, which have been mangled time and again during basketball games. elenora could not have been a more precious, wonderful baby. she smiled at everyone and was jabbering away. everyone kept stopping to tell us what a good, happy, beautiful girl she is. we were there for three hours, right when she usually naps, and she didn't cry a single time. she even fell asleep sweetly in my arms when we stopped in the food court to eat and give her a bottle. then she slept in our arms as we carried her around and picked up j.'s glasses.

we stopped by momB's on the way home. ella loves her gramby.

then we came home and had a tubby and bed, and ella fell asleep again without any crying.

it felt so good to get out with the family. elenora isn't a dice roll anymore. she's such a social person, which momB says she gets from j. i don't doubt that, as i'm such an introvert.

i love my family.
