20 Months

_MG_9722.JPG

20 months. Over the last month Eliza has really jump made a giant leap towards being two. When she feeds herself it's now more likely to end up in her mouth than on the floor which is appreciated by us and the rug. Two word phrases are becoming the norm like Poo-poo Ew, Bath hot, Daddy's shoe. She's left-handed, can hop and run like the wind, and boy oh boy does she want to do everything her big sister does.

This also means refusing to sit in her booster seat for meals. We used to let Addie eat at the coffee table but for the sake of our rug (and because it's just a terrible habit) both girls now eat at the dining room table. So grown up!

Saturday Eliza starts swim lessons and will join in the after swim routine of a trip to the donut shop. Whatever Addie gets Eliza wants. Eliza also seems to have much more of a sweet tooth than Addie. Addie doesn't really like most desserts. She's not interested in cakes, cookies, pies or pastries. Candy? Now we're talking. Eliza loves chocolate ice cream and can wolf down a cupcake like a champ. And everyone likes chocolate donuts.

So funny and random ... our little tradition has been a pre-swim donut since swim class is after school on Monday and they need that little boost to get them through til dinner

wow, well, I don't think I can top Prince's comment down there, but I did want to say I love Eliza's ponytails!
