Learning to crawl!

Elsie turned 9 months this week and is growing into quite the little Wild Thing. She's 19 lbs, 12 oz, 28.5 inches tall and lots of fun to play with. Here's a video of her during one of her many "training sessions" ...

Like Mother Like Daughter


Happy Mother's Day! I wonder where Elsie gets her hairstyle inspiration from? As you can see from this photo, I think being a mom is the most fun thing I have ever done! Elsie continues to make me laugh, smile, and sometimes happy cry. I am thrilled to join in on the Mother's Day celebration. After laboring (for way too long) and delivering Elsie I have a whole new respect for my mom and all my girlfriend moms who bring these specials babes into the world. It's tough work, but so worth it! I will spend the day celebrating with two of my favorite mothers: my mom and my sister.


Erickson girls out.

We Came, We Saw, We Walked

Elsie's first MS walk was a success! The weather was great and they gave us Papa John's pizza for lunch, which Elsie enjoyed watching us eat. Elsie asked we give a BIG thanks to her donors:

Grandpa and Grandma G, Grandpa and Grandma E, Uncle Matt, Uncle Cliff, Auntie Stacey, Uncle Nathan, Cuz Gabe and Great Auntie Carole.

My future's so bright...
