Elizabeth and Mommy having a good time together.


She gives us the cutest toothless smiles that you have ever seen... they make us laugh out loud!!!


Here she is practicing gymnastics at her high chair.


We've been together for over a month now. We all agree that it seems as if she has always been with us. What a blessing from God. She truly is a gift. She has made such progress in just a month. She is walking if she holds just one finger, but as soon as we pry her little hand off of our fingers, she sits down. It cracks me up. She can practically run if she is holding on. She crawls anywhere she wants to go now and is figuring out how to climb on things. She explores EVERYTHING!!! This is the first time I have REALLY had to be aware of childproofing. Lookout for the outlets, she is fascinated by them. It truly does amaze me how everything is so interesting to her. Jacob calls her Curious George.

She is doing very well sleeping. It is like clockwork... almost. By 8:00 she is wiggling and fussing for a bottle and bed. She is asleep in 5 minutes and stays asleep until 1:30, then she takes another bottle. I have watered it down to just a fourth of formula and the rest water now. Then she sleeps until 6:00.
