Mommy, Grammy, and Elise went to Omaha to visit the
Lippys and attend a
Dorn reunion over Memorial Day weekend. Mommy's been slow to post the pics, and she's sorry! Elise visited her great-grandma and great-grandpa
Dorn's grave for the first time, and we took pics to commemorate it.

Elise also had her first swinging experience while in Omaha. She loved it! She giggled the whole time and even hung on like a big girl! Mommy was very proud of her. Wish we had a place around her house to put a swing up, but since we don't, Mommy can just take her to the park!
This wasn't taken in Nebraska, but it's darn cute! Elise got tuckered out one day playing with her toys and just fell over asleep. She just got played-out!
Elise had her first real baby food for the first time about 3 weeks ago. We started out with the oranges, and the first orange was squash. Her first bite was a little iffy as she got used to the taste...
But after a few bites, she was getting impatient about the speed at which her father was feeding her! She says "Mmmm" after every bite of food.
Elise can be a pretty big mess when she eats, and usually gets almost as much on her as she does in her mouth, but she is always very excited when she sees that spoon coming! She hasn't met a baby food (we've cycled through all the "level one" baby foods) that she doesn't like yet!
