Just a little update

So a week ago Lizabeth and I went up and got her glasses adjusted, and I thought she's only had them for a week so I hope there's something even to adjust, he took them back and when he brought them back out to us he said they were totally of kilter! As for her looking over them, he said that's pretty typical, she wants to see what is "normal" to her, so he but bigger nose pieces on and tilted them up so she isn't able to look over them, and we've had no other problems! Hooray!!

Not to much has been going on 'round here, Tony's back in school,:( and Lizabeth and I are just doing the same old same old. Elizabeth did decide to hit an inconvenient growth spurt which has put her too big for alot of her 12 month clothes and most of her 18 month clothes are summer clothes, so we hit up a couple Kid to Kids, the DI and Carter's super duper sale, to get her by til warmer weather comes, most of the 18 month clothes are still a bit big, but better big than small!
We've been spending our weekends at my parents house as Tony is helping my dad put in my mom's craft room in the unfinished side of their basement. I've enjoyed playing Wii Sports Resort, it's lots of fun but way out of our budget! And It's nice to have someone else to watch Elizabeth for a bit!

Believe it or not...sad as it is, I'm still organizing all the billions of Christmas pictures we took, but as soon as I do I'll post them, they're way fun! Ok truthfully I've been slacking on the Christmas pictures because we got a digital picture frame(on black friday) for Christmas and I've been working on getting the pictures for it cause I'm way excited to see it in action!

As for Elizabeth she's constantly amazing me! Her newest developments are she can now sign "again" and "please". She can give a high five! And her feet are now a whopping size four!!(which at Payless is known as 9-12 months) I was beginning to think she was going to be a size three forever! Ever since she got her glasses she learns and does new things everyday! she's a pro at putting her rings on their pole, she can stack her blocks 3 or 4 high, she can even connect and stack her "legos", she points to everything(but mostly puppies) in her books. Oh and she can now go up and DOWN stairs but it still makes me nervous cause she's gotten into the bad habit of standing up and looking behind her which puts her off balance...SCARY!!
Oh the cutest thing happened yesterday...we were grocery shopping at Walmart and we were almost done but she was so cranky and being so so sooooo loud, so I grabbed a Baby Einstein book as we passed the books, and gave it to her just to appease her until we were done, and it worked! She calmed right down, and looked at it quite intently, and as we were checking out and tried to take it from her to put it on top of the pop fridge thing at the check out, but she wouldn't let it go for anything!! I looked at the price and it was only 6 bucks and we haven't bought her a book in a long time, so I broke down and bought it for her, she didn't stop looking at it till I ripped it from her hand when we got home and put her to bed!! She sure loves her books I tell ya!

Well I think that's about it, hopefully the next post will be lots of fun pictures!
