Leaf

Hi, my name is Elizabeth & I ate a leaf at school today. Mmmmm....It scared my teacher and it'll probably scare my parents later. :-). Great day!!

Sippy Cup???

I'm not so sure about this thing. It's fun to play with but nothing compares to my bottle.

Guess who is 9 MONTHS OLD???

ME!!!!!  I can eat peas, green beans, squash, and carrots.  I am really excited to try more foods in the near future.  At my last doctor appointment, I weighed around 20 lbs and am almost 2 1/2 feet tall.  I sleep in my crib and have really started to enjoy stuffed animals.  I like to cuddle and hug them.  My school thinks I am about ready to move up to the next class, wow!!  I sometimes go there to meet my new teachers and friends.  I am pretty tired those days but sure have fun while I am there.  So much to learn.  I still don't have any teeth but that doesn't stop me!  Next month, I will be in the double digits.  Mommy seems pretty sad about that but I am not sure why, I think it is great!!

I went swinging and I LOVED it!!!

Merry Christmas!!

Our family celebrated Christmas in El Paso this year.  We had a great time with family.  We enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandma Johnmeyer. 

Elizabeth was able to see a large portion of Texas on the trip to west Texas over the 2 days it took to get there and back.  She enjoyed most of it when she wasn't snoozing or being upset from being in her seat too long.  Overall, she was a great traveler and enjoyed the time with us in the car.  Not to mention all the sweet gifts we all received. So many nice things for Elizabeth to love on and learn from.

We loved seeing Hudson who is already 6 months old.  Where did the time go?  Elizabeth and Hudson played together (well, next to one another when they were both not being fed or napping).
