Walkabout

Lizzy is now walking everywhere. She loves walking outside and anytime we go to the store. One of her favorite things to do is to push her stroller or a shopping cart through the store. Lizzy is also getting really good at remembering the actions to songs. Her favorite song is Popcorn Popping and she's really cute doing all the actions. She also enjoys Once There Was a Snowman and The Wise Man. She loves doing Ring Around the Rosies and learning to do somersaults.

Lizzy is learning lots of new words. She now says Lizzy, Bunny, Doggy and even says Woof Woof every time she sees a dog. She has a lot of fun talking to Grandma and Grandpa Bailey on video with Skype while they are on their mission.

Lizzy's cousins recently let her borrow their playhouse so we put that in the playroom and she spends hours playing in there. She loves to sit at the table and read with her dolls or cook on the stove or push things through the mail slot. This has bought us hours of free time the last couple of weeks.

Lizzy has 3 new teeth which brings her total to 9. She is such a good helper and just wants to do whatever we are doing. She wants to try everything and can learn new things so quickly. Once she's done something once, she wants to be the one to do it every single time after that.

Here are a few pictures of the last month:

Lizzy enjoyed riding the carousel and the Bob the Builder ride at the mall

Her first ponytail

Cheesing it up for the camera

Lizzy has learned how to use Daddy's deodorant and after-shave lotion and loves wearing his belt and tie

She was laying on the ground reading the comics but every time I went to get her picture she would stand up

Lizzy really enjoyed helping Daddy make fresh salsa. She loved the limes and wasn't at all bothered by the sourness

Here she is stirring the salsa and occasionally taste testing. She actually really liked the salsa, though she didn't care as much for the hot sauce she tried recently

Lizzy helping us get strawberries ready for waffles and doing some Quality Control as well. Did we mention that she loves helping us do everything?
