Grandpa's Coming!

Grandpa Castillo is finally coming to meet his granddaughter. Grandpa is the last of Wil's immediate family that hasn't met Elisa because he owns and runs a family hardware business in El Salvador's capital city. So, he's a busy man. Anyway, he is planning to come to KC to meet our little girl and celebrate her first birthday with her. Please pray that these plans will work out.

I am excited for the upcoming long weekend so that Wil will be home a few extra days with us. No big plans, just a family BBQ, but at least we'll all be together. Hint, hint to my little brother that means you, too. No more skipping your own birthday party!

Elisa is now walking...with the help of push toys and I wouldn't be surprised if she was walking by her birthday. She also mastered the art of crawling up stairs when her friend Anna from Omaha was here. Thanks to Anna (3 years old), Elisa learned to walk behind a push toy and crawl up the stairs in one day! I think we need to go to Omaha and learn to be potty trained now. So, the little one now throws a fit if we don't let her play on the steps...and until she learns how to go down them safely....there are permanent gates and barracades in the house. Oh boy!
