birthday gifts

it was a special treat to have our friends and eleanor's godparents, jeff and amy, in town for eleanor's party this weekend. we also got to meet their adorable little girl, violet jane, for the first time. she just turned 4 months old. this was our first glimpse of her when they arrived.

a few of E's more tangible birthday presents:
we gave her an easel with a chalkboard on one side and space for paintings and drawings on the other.
fun bath toys!
grandpa bill made this lovely toy box, which rob painted and we are in the process of personalizing with her name and some decorations.
our friends the boelks gave eleanor their deluxe kiddie pool and my parents gave her the water table (thanks for the idea, brandy and mike!), which we set up on the deck yesterday. she had a good time splashing around and pouring water from the pool into the table and vice versa.
