Everyday seems to be a new experience. E's learning/finding new things and mommy & daddy are putting things up higher & higher. Just throwing things on the table & counter tops used to be "high enough"...no longer is that the case. And we have a climber on our hands. I found E on TOP of our kitchen table recently...I was so afraid I couldnt speak...as I knew if I would have showed her a loud reaction, she would have fallen off the table. So, she's climbing on kitchen chairs, recliners, rockers, couches...OH! She has learned that she if she takes her chairs/toys and steps on them, she can get a wee bit higher! Aigh Aigh Aigh. She is afraid of NOTHING! Which, is scary!
Elizabeth is constantly on the go-go-go. And she keeps climbing up-up-up. She knows what she can/can't do, but, still tries to do those "naughty" things when mom & dad arent looking. She's very sneaky at times. When she is playing in her bedroom, and all is quiet, I MUST MUST MUST peek my head in there just to make sure she's not climbing up on anything, and making too big of a mess! She has a toy that she got for Xmas from my brother, it was a bit advanced for her back in December, but she's gotten the hang of it since...its a little red barn that has different holes to put the different shaped pawns/objects in (shapes/numbers). For the most part, she has been able to put the square shape in the square hole...the numbers are a bit harder for her, but she's working on it. So, there have been multiple times when I have found E sitting on the floor in her room, calmly and patiently trying to get these shapes figured out.
Ahhh, recently E saw me scrubbing the laundry room floor on my hands & knees...Guess what E does with her wet wipes (if they arent high enough & out of reach!), or any dish towel/wash cloth that may have fallen from the laundry basket....YUP! She's mimicking mommy, and wiping up the floor...or dusting furniture, or, just wiping her face like mommy does after meals. And speaking of meals, we have transitioned from eating w/ our hands, to, using silverware! E has her own fork/spoon set, that, she loves to use. Even if she's eating food that doesnt require utinsels, she'll still try to use them. Its pretty hard to jab a apple slice, with plastic spoon, but, she'll try! Once she gets frustrated enough, she'll resort to just using her hands again, but, this is also usually the point when she just starts throwing food on the floor. Thats when we know she's had enough!
It seems she is physically changing every week. Her little mullet keeps growing longer & longer (but the hair on top hasnt seem to caught up yet!) Because of the awkward hairstyle, I havent been able to even put pony tails in her hair! I've tried little clips, but, she likes to just pull these out. She loves to wear hats though, so, we use those to pretty up the outfits as well as to keep the sun out of her BABY BLUE eyes!
I'll post some new pictures- hopefully soon!
