After a long hiatus, here we are again. Rather than give an update on too many details (and further delay this post) I'm just going to quickly summarize. Carrie is now working at the Supreme Court for Justice Thomas and is almost done with the term - it runs from July to July and at least partially explains my lack of posting. :) Roger is still working at the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty but soon will be moving to the Civil Rights/Housing division of the Department of Justice. We've had alternating grandparents living with us this year to help take care of Ellie. Right now we're on GaGa Campbell, and TaTa and NaNa Severino will be here at the end of April. Ellie is growing up so fast! She is very articulate (for a two-year old) and although she prefers English she does understand pretty much everything in Spanish and can manage well in Spanish when NaNa and TaTa are here. Now we're up to 35 3/4 inches tall, 32 pounds, brown curly hair, brown eyes. She eats nearly everything but her favorites are still eggs, avocados, hummus, and nuts. Her favorite story is Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and her favorite song is Peter and the Wolf - she loves identifying the various instruments and characters. She's also now enamored of her new little brother or sister - as she calls it her "baby in da womb." I'm due October 13 or thereabouts and so far am having an extraordinarily easy pregnancy.
Here are some pictures - enjoy!
