Almost 2

Well Eliza just finished up her 726th day. It was a happy one; the joys in her life are many.
  • Smiley face stickers--one for each pudgy hand
  • Strawberries and blueberries
  • Peek-a-boo--an old favorite
  • Proudly pronouncing her own name on request
  • Gently patting the feet of a baby we met at a store
  • Cruising around the block on her trike
  • Planting hear head on the ground from a standing position and waving her hands around
  • Helping to feed fishy
  • Getting close to doggies, but not too close
  • Throwing rocks in the creek
  • Putting anything we allow in the trash can
  • Walking in other peoples yards
  • Dancing to the 1980 rock band Duran Duran
  • Seeing her reflection in her dinner spoon
  • Watering the pavement with her yellow pail
  • Flushing the toilet and saying "bye bye"
The joys in our lives are many as well.

Duran Duran! I don't care what her nationality, that girl has got to have some of my blood in her veins! I can't wait to meet her and crank up Rio (Shane's Favorite)
Much love and kisses.
