Brush Your Teeth

tonight after elizabeth's bath, she got super excited when ryan said he was going to brush her teeth. it's funny watching her mouth turn into this smile/grin to show her teeth so we can brush them. she loves it the most when she gets to do it herself though.

Playing Around with Sugar

today while i was blogging, i could hear elizabeth laughing and squealing in the other room. i went to see what was going on and she was playing with sugar and having a good old time.

This Is What Happens...

August 24, 2008
this is what happens whe you don't buckle your child in their high chair! elizabeth always thinks she is so funny cause she get's up in the table part of it and dances. she hasn't got up again after her little fall right into the seat.

Playground Fun

August 22, 2008
the townhomes that we live in have a little playground and elizabeth loves the slide! she's getting so big, she'll go down by herself and then climb the stairs to get to the top to do it again! it's so fun to watch the smile on her face.

Cabin Trip

August 15-16, 2008
we had another fun trip to the cabin with my parents and my youngest siblings. it's getting to be a bit more cold, but we still had a great time. we enjoyed just sitting around talking, playing horse-shoe, and elizabeth had fun coloring in the trailer with grandmerry. my dad spent a lot of time fixing up my grandma's sitting deck. there was also a bunch of distant relatives up at their cabin and they had a ton of dogs with them, so we all enjoyed playing with the cute puppies. it was a nice weekend.

Give Me More

August 14, 2008
I have the most talented daughter. if there is something she wants, like a treat, and you have it in your hand, but it's more than she can hold. she always manages it somehow, with her little fingers and just using one hand she'll take all of it. then she'll put it all in her mouth, and even store it in her cheek like a hampster. it's the funniest thing, she did it with papa the other day and we were just laughing.
well ryan and i were just playing the wii the other night and elizabeth walks in the room with two Binky's in her mouth...it was so funny!

Dance Baby Dance

August 14, 2008 it was so funny, elizabeth was just letting loose and dancing all over the place, i just caught the end of it, but it was super funny watching her cute personality.

Daddy's Girl

August 10, 2008
it was such a nice day, so after church we just sat outside on the front porch. elizabeth climbed right up next to her daddy, she is such a daddy's girl.

All Aboard

August 9, 2008
we went to out good friends the cleverly's and they have the sweetest daughter brighton who just turned a year. elizabeth found a lid to a box and her and brighton wanted a ride in it, so landon pushed them around in it and they had so much fun. they were smiling the whole time and when he stopped they weren't happy, they kept getting back into the lid.

Messy Face

August 4,2008
elizabeth has never had a problem with us feeding her, but i think she has hit the age that she wants to do it herself. when i watch her make a huge mess, i have to remind myself that it's okay, this is how she learns. it is a slow process, but she's learning...plus i get cute pictures out of it.

Pool Party

August 2, 2008 we had a family pool party to celebrate mariah's 7th birthday. it was so much fun swimming with the family! we had just bought elizabeth a life jacket so we wouldn't have to worry so much if she were to fall in the pool. she actually doesn't mind it. it was nice to, cause kateyann and william (benjamin's kids) were there, and they are just the cutest kids!

Lucy Made a Couple Friends

okay this picture was taken awhile ago, like early july or so. this was my cousin jonathan's puppy lucy. he brought her over one night and elizabeth and sugar chased her the entire time she was at our house, it was very entertaining to watch.
