Man a lot has happened in a short time!

So a lot has happened in the last month for sure! I will try to remember it all. Unfortunately I am that mom that takes my camera everywhere but forgets to take it out and take pictures. So you wont be able to see a lot of it. Sorry for that.

I believe in the last post I told you all about the three teeth that Elizabeth had poking through. Well three then four at the same time. No more. Within two weeks of poking through they went back in. Not a single tooth is showing! I have read that this is somewhat normal and is fine but I hope something happens soon because she is in some serious discomfort! Yesterday, however, I did discover that she had a tooth poking through again. Once again it is not a front tooth it is the tooth just behind her left k9 on the top so we will see if this one stays out.

We have had some good food, conversation, and fun at all of our play dates but unfortunately I only have pictures from two. They are some good pictures though. Elizabeth has a bff already and she is the daughter to my oldest bff. It is so funny to see them together. They are already like my friend Nanthida and I. Nanthida has always been the person that can carry on a conversation with a stranger and her daughter Vivienne gabs away as much as she can. Elizabeth is like me and is the sweet, silent type. It is so fun to watch these two together. They take a bit to rediscover each other and see what's going on with the baby in front of them but then they are holding hands and lovin on each other. They are going to be good friends!

Another one of my good friends let us tag along to the Crown Center exhibit of the Fairy Tale Village. We had a lot of fun but again I forgot to pull out the camera. Well maybe this was one of those not so much forgetting as Elizabeth didn't let me finish getting ready so I didn't want photographic evidence. I stole this picture from her facebook page and it's the only one there is while we were there.
It was really funny to watch Jacquie's daughter Charlotte run around and check out all the stuff. Man she has already got her own personality and it's great to see more of it every time we see them. It makes me wonder what Elizabeth will be like when as she gets older. Jacquie also has a sweet baby boy Matteo and I joke that he and Elizabeth will get married someday. Never know. Matteo may be two months younger than Elizabeth but I am three months older than Thomas so who's to say. Matteo hasn't really been at the point of getting on the floor and rolling around yet but when he does I am sure he and Elizabeth will have some fun!

Since the weather has finally decided to stay warm we have been able to enjoy some fun outdoor time as a family. We got to go to opening day for the Royals. Although Elizabeth slept through half of it we still had fun!








We also got to enjoy some fun at Loose park. We were going to take Elizabeth and stick her toes in the fountain on the Plaza but the water was way too cold for that so we will have to wait for another day for that. Here are the pictures from those two fun days










Elizabeth has had many small milestones. It is like she is doing something new or better everyday. She is using her hands more, able to pass objects from one to another. She is exercising her vocal cords and seeing what sounds they can do which is really funny to watch because she has a different facial expression for all of them. She is seeing what happens when she pushes things away and pulls them to her. She looks for things that have fallen or people that have left. When Thomas leaves the room she yells for him to come back. She is actually eating solids instead of just squishing the food around in her mouth. There are many more little ones, but the big milestone that has come about in the last month is that she can sit up by herself. She still has to support herself with her hands but she can do it. She used to just lean over and support herself with her belly but that would just make her sick and she didn't like that much. Now when she starts to fall over she can catch herself with her hands and support herself. She is doing great!



I think that is about it for now. I will leave you with pictures of Elizabeth doing her favorite thing right now. Watching TV. Yes if she is upset you take her around the TV she finds it and she is fine. TV does make everything better. She is already a couch potato. See you next post!
