Elizabeth Rae is 1!

I can not believe my little baby turned 1 year old. She is growing so fast. She is 24lbs and in the 95th % for her height, weight and head, she is one big girl!
She is not walking but she LOVES to talk...HI (I cant count how many times she says hi), doggy (which is any animal), kitty, ni ni (night, night), bobbem (bottle), flowow (flower), mommy, dada, ga ga (grandpa), she says "hi sisser" (hi sister), ook (book)...thats all I can think of. She will pick up the phone and say 'hi'. She waves hi and bye bye. She is working on using a fork and a spoon. She drinks out of a sippy cup and drinks whole milk. She loves to eat, anything and everything, her favorite thing to eat is watermelon and anything sweet :)

She is not walking but she is standing well alone, and cruising well, she can go from sitting or squatting to standing. She is a growing girl and I cant wait to see her start walking and playing more with Emily. Emily loves to give her hugs and kisses and take her toys and food! Emily gets jealous of Elizabeth and likes to be the center of attention, they are wonderful girls!!

Elizabeth 2 Months

At two months Elizabeth was 12lbs and 22 3/4 inch. She is getting big so fast. She likes to sit in her bumbo seat, she can grasp her rattle, she is now smiling, laughing and babbling. She is going to sleep around 8-9pm wakes after 4-6hr then every 3. She is such a good, happy baby. Everyone thinks she looks just like Daddy!

Halloween 2011

This was Elizabeth's first Halloween, she had fun watching her big sister run from house to house getting tons of candy. Emily loved Halloween this year, Emily and her Grandmas have been practicing how to trick or treat for months :) After a few houses she knew exactly what to do. We found it funny when I looked into Emily's bucket of candy and it was almost full and then I looked at her friend Carly's bucket and it was barely 1/4 full...Kevin says it means she is going to be successful. I think she just loves candy :)

Busy Weekend with the Girls

This weekend we had a lot to do. On Saturday it was Codys 1st birthday and on Sunday it was the Meet and Greet for Elizabeth. We had a great time at both and it was fun to visit with our friends and family. It was nice to have everyone meet Elizabeth, she enjoyed being passed around and held by everyone. Emily had a lot of fun too, she played with Grandpa and went next door to Barbara's house and played with her toys too. It was a great party that my mom planned for Elizabeth!

Pumpkin Patch

We took the girls to Daves Pumpkin Patch today. Emily was really excited. She is really getting into Halloween this year, I think its the first holiday she really understands. Both Grandmas taught Emily to knock on the door and say trick or treat, so she likes to practice that. She cant wait to dress up and get candy! Into the maze!
