As I post all of these pictures I'm realizing just how fun-filled our weekend was! On Saturday we had a few friends over for a "wine and cheese" holiday party, where each guest contributes a bottle of vino and some cheese for all to sample. Brian and I had a good time drawing comparisons between this event and previous ones we've hosted... where we didn't have toddlers on scene!
But Ellie had fun and even had a friend to enjoy it with — 15-month-old Max... who Ellie felt the need to bully :( They played together OK at times, but often we had to intervene when Ellie snatched toys from Max or tried to push him off her musical chair, etc. (sigh) This picture below where she's giving him the stink-eye sort of sums that part of the evening up!
Here's the impressive spread we put out, including swiss fondue, more than a half dozen kinds of cheese and some cheese stick jr. dippers!
A couple pre-party pics, too.
Ellie wasn't thrilled about this attempt at a family pic, or maybe because she was the only one without a wine glass...
