listening and whispering

my sister’s birthday was last week and as an impromptu celebration my mom decided to hop on the train up to washington to spend a couple days with her…since the train passed through portland, i hopped on and joined her for the ride! we’re having an unofficial girls night (yes, our husbands are sadly bored and alone tonight).

this afternoon has been all baby talk…looking at furniture me sister has saved for me, talking about what’s a necessity and what’s not (she’s done it 5 times, so i definitely trust her opinion!), and even taking a peek at fun inspiration online.

and of course there was this moment that i love.

little miss eleanor (2 1/2) is listening very intently while mor mor is whispering sweet nothings into baby’s ears.
