First of all, thank you to all of you for your birthday well wishes! I really appreciate them. I had a wonderful birthday!! The boys all made me a cake. Dennis got me some beautiful flowers and a movie. Sean and Ryan both made me some cards which I will treasure always.
Yep, school starts at the SRE Academy (that is Sean, Ryan and Elizabeth Academy) on Monday!! I'm excited.. the boys aren't, but I am!! HAHAH! I wrote out all the lesson plans for next week, have the books all arranged and in order, we are good-to-go!!!
I'll leave you with this final video that I took of Elizabeth today!! She says Ryan's name so well! Whenever the boys go back to their room to play, she stands at the gate and shouts "RYAN!!!" for them to come back and play with her. LOL
Amazingly enough I was able to catch the last few steps on video of Elizabeth's first walk all by herself across the room. Before now, she had only taken 2 or 3 steps on her own! Today, she started at one end of the room and made it all the way across (I just only caught the last little bit on camera).
Can you believe it? Elizabeth is 10 months old today! UGH! Time is flying by WAY too fast. She has decided that she is not a crawler, that getting on her belly stuff is just NOT for her. Instead, she sits up (like a lady) and scoots on her bottom everywhere she goes... and BOY does she GO! Her little hands are into everything! If she can reach it, she tries to get it, which also translates to eating it. She likes to keep mommy, daddy and her big brothers busy chasing her around and keeping every little fuzzball out of her mouth. Yuk!!
Elizabeth is a talker! She can babble in complete sentences now. She will tell you the most amazing stories, if you could understand her own secret language. Her favorite animals are doggies. Copper brings her absolute joy, and any other doggie she sees in books, on tv or just out and about in town.
Her favorite TV personality, without a doubt, is Elmo. She just loves Elmo! Why? I havent the foggiest idea, but she does.
She also loves to be read to. She has a favorite book that counts to 5 on each page and she will ask to be read to over and over and over and over and over and... well you get the idea! :)
Here are a few videos of her that I took this weekend. Don't mind the stain on her shirt, she just had her dinners and we were just about to head up for bath time :)
This second video is her playing peek-a-boo with her blankie. haha!
