On September 9, Eleanor Claire turned ONE year old! A couple weeks later, we flew down to Orlando to celebrate with family in true "Brown Bear" style, inspired by Eleanor's favorite book. We were ever so grrr-ateful to have spent the day with those we love most!
| Even Brown Bear himself made an appearance. You'd be surprised by how little he ate. |
