18 Months!!!

Can you believe that Lizzy is 18 months old?!?  Ok so maybe I'm the only one who's surprised, but we're really excited for her.  She had her first official day in nursery last Sunday.  I think it's a little funny that she was tall enough to open the door and let herself out of nursery before she was old enough to be enrolled.

Lizzy is doing so many awesome things lately.  For starters she is sleeping so well!  She never fusses when we put her down.  She may jabber for an hour or sometimes more, but she's just in there being adorable.  

She loves to say Anna.  We're enjoying having kids out of school to play with.
Some of her other words now are turtle, Jimmer (Ju-ju), Up, Down, 
Bow, Shoes, Socks, Water and Strawberry

Horses are still her favorite animal.  She actually has a new rocking/bouncing 
horse at home.  Dad got it for $10 at a garage sale!

Lizzy is doing awesome animal sounds and she knows the sounds for like 15 different animals including: Bears, chickens & owls.  She's currently working on mice and birds...

Cool book fair at BYU - long lines for Brandon Mull, but worth the wait.  
(Especially since Lisa stood in line and we didn't have to...)

Lizzy loves sitting on her ball just like daddy watching his 
favorite team win the championship. Go MAVS!  
Don't let this picture fool you though,  she's a runner.  
Every time she's set down she's off and running by herself.  
(No concern for parent location either.)

Everyone talking to G&G Bailey on Skype during a farewell party for Dave & Erin.

Farewell Ring around the Rosies
We hope Dave, Erin & Seth are enjoying Sacramento!

Lizzy LOVES olives.  She can really down them - like she would eat a whole can.
Some of her other favorite foods are peaches, pears, icees, 
strawberries, pretzels, popcorn (still) and pickles.


Lizzy knows she's not supposed to play with her bows and 
she's usually really good about it.  But sometimes when Mommy is driving...  
This time Lizzy got her bow back on by herself, it was SO cute and she was totally proud!

The indoor shot, you can see a little better that it's really on her head.  :)

We'll have to post some swimming pictures soon - she loves swimming at our neighborhood pool or at Seven Peaks.  She loves the wave pool best at Seven Peaks.  Another favorite she has is trains.  She loves saying choo choo.  She's ridden a couple small trains and loved them!  She also enjoys helping mommy load and transport the "laundry train".  Watching trains from the car is good too.  :)

And she still loves music.  She now knows the actions to about 12-15 songs and she asks us to sing them by doing the action.  We can't believe how fast she is learning everything.  Such an awesome little girl!
