Here I Come

Give Lizzie a room full of toys...both hers and Maury's...and what does she want? The diaper wipes. So, hey, that is what I put out of her reach on the night of June 4th and she finally got it together and crawled. When she first crawled, she kept her fanny really low...right on her feet. So, when she crawled away from you, you saw these cute little tootsies turned inward inching forward with her fanny on top!

Play Ball!

I know you won't believe this, but Lizzie already plays catch! She will throw herself at a ball that is rolled towards her, pick it up, and roll it back. Father's Day weekend, she was actually BOUNCING it back.

Nice Do!

I have no idea how this happened. We left Cracker Barrel after breakfast on our way home from visiting family, drove 1-2 hours, stopped for gas and drinks, and this is what Lizzie looked like. Can you see that her hair is standing STRAIGHT up? It stayed that way for the longest time, too. I could NOT get it to stay down!

Daddy's Book

For Father's Day, I had the kids' pictures taken in black and white and then I had one blown up and hand tinted. Steve was totally surprised. How did he not know something was up when his mom and I left at 7:15 a.m. on a Saturday to take the kids to the Botanical Gardens? God love a man who just knows he has a morning to himself and asks no questions!

Sign of Things to Come

I had no idea that I had captured Lizzie taking a little bite out of Maury when I was taking pictures. I feel like this is just a sign of what is to come. Poor Maury has no idea that she will get bigger and will be able to defend herself. Actually, they both love to play rough until someone is crying. (Sadly, it's usually me or Steve.)
