Say Cheese!

We had some new pictures of Ellie taken that I can't resist showing off. Knute's Senior Partner's daughter (follow that?), Courtney Steffens, came over a couple weeks ago for the event. I say event because it involved two hours of constant singing, dancing, and anything else that could get Ellie to smile. Courtney graduated from the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, and although babies aren't her typical subject to photograph, I think she has incredible talent. She even got Rudy to cooperate for a short while (and that is an extremely hard thing to do).
