Elizabeth

Well when Elizabeth turned 2 I got a free photo package for Elizabeth's birthday. I really was never happy with the pictures we got because we had to pick them from the first 4 taken. So I decided to get new pictures of her taken so I'd have some I really liked until her 3rd birthday.

James suggested using the dress we got Elizabeth for Christmas. So I decided to make some clips for her hair. They came out very cute, and Elizabeth thought they were cool.




Yes, I do realize this picture is blurry. This is just an example of what the poor lady at Olan Mills had to put up with trying to get this kid to hold still for a picture. Elizabeth was very uncooperative. I was told after we looked at the few pictures we got that we could reschedule if we wanted, but I don't think a change of days will make Lizzi want to hold still more.

Our next adventure is potty training, and I am going to make myself start when we run out of diapers Elizabeth's size. I keep putting it off because it is intimidating to me. She is ready though, and she picked out her Dora the Explorer underwear and potty seat (we needed another one for our bathroom in the basement). So wish me luck, I really don't know why this is so intimidating for me, but once we start I'll let you know how it goes. And I'm sure Elizabeth will want to show off her Dora undies, silly kid.

I also wanted to include this picture of Clayton. We had a somewhat long day yesterday. After pictures we ran to Office Max so I could find out how much laminating is (and if anyone can tell me what a linear foot is I would really appreciate it). Then we went to see Grandma and Grandpa because Elizabeth wanted to show them how adorable she looked. Well after that we were all starving, and being very sick of sandwiches we decide pizza sounded good. So Poor Clayton only got about a 25 minute nap while we were home changing Lizzi and getting some money. He enjoyed the Pizza Hut lunch buffet though. So by 8pm when Lizzi went to sleep he went behind the love seat while James was playing Wii and I was working on our taxes. Well about 10 minutes later I asked James what Clay was up to and he had laid down and gone to sleep. So cute!

Wow, Clay is such a doll. I wish my boys could fall asleep anywhere.
