Thanksgiving...
We spent thanksgiving at Dad and Kim's. Elizabeth had fun trying to eat her food before Grandpa got it.... Sometimes that's the only way to get that girl to eat...... Grandpa and Sara can seem to get her to eat the best!
 |
| We went to the tree festival in Akron for Akron Children's Hospital. It was so fun to see all the pretty trees. |
 |
| Elizabeth and Nathan had a great time putting the tickets into the boxes....none of us won though : ) |
 |
| Elizabeth loved Rudolph |
 |
| Grandpa bought E and Na-Na Santa and Mrs. Claus |
 |
| Elizabeth and Zippy! |
 |
| All dressed up to go to church. Elizabeth loves to wear frilly dresses : ) |
Polar Express:
We had so much fun going on the Polar Express with Sara, Scott, and Nathan.
Elizabeth loved the puppet show put on by an elf, the pajama parade, and actually seeing Santa. He even gave her a bell!!

| Wore out on the way home. Even though she was tired she was up most of the night...... |
 |
| Aunt Kay came over with Gingerbread houses! |
 |
| E had a castle and Landon had a Home Depot! |
 |
| Elizabeth likes to line up her toys. She got this Mickey Mouse clubhouse for her birthday. She has all her characters ready for action : ) |
 |
| On our way to find a Christmas tree! |
 | |||||
| Elizabeth picked out the perfect tree! |
She loved Christmas and was sad when it was over. She even woke up when Santa was in our house delivering the presents. It was kind of scary though! She loved all of her presents and had such wonderful reactions. She made us a hand print Christmas tree at Daycare and we loved it of course! Over Christmas break she was doing a great job with potty training. She loves getting M&Ms or Kissy Kissies (Hershey Kisses) for going potty!

Favorite things to say:
-yesterday....... (everything starts with 'yesterday......' even if it just happened : )
-I no like...... (insert any word...mom, dad, cookies.... when she's angry she no like anything!)
-You're my brest friend (For some reason she inserts an R into 'best' but it is the most adorable thing....she throws those little arms around your neck and says 'you're my brest friend, mommy')
-You need a check up?...... (she loves the show Doc McStuffins, which is about a little girl who is a doctor to all the toys. Elizabeth has decided she is a real doctor and will give you a check up. She especially likes to give shots.....)
-You gotta be brave.... (that's for when she's giving the shots)
-Happy lives on Cook Road....(after telling her one what road Rachel lives on she told me a week later 'happy lives on Cook Rd...I live on Stroup Rd'.....She is so good with directions and knowing where we're at when we're driving around....she definitely did not get that from me : )
