Staying busy at a school assembly: playing with a cone!* She loves to eat chicken nuggets, yogurt, cereal, fruit snacks, and bananas. Although she doesn't like to try new foods, she is starting to add a few more things to that short list!
* She has enough hair that we can do a small pony tail on top. But it is still thin hair and fairly short, so I work hard to make sure she is wearing a girly color!
* Elizabeth knows a lot of words and is good at communicating what she wants. I don't know that others can understand her very well, but the 5 of us in the family can!
* She has started throwing mini-tantrums when she doesn't get what she wants. She'll flail and cry, but my favorite is her dramatic cry: she'll sniffle! None of the boys sniffled and I think it is so cute!
* She is very friendly and social. Lately she's been crawling under the pews at church to play with the families behind us. Most of the time it is just the pew right behind us, but sometimes she goes back another pew or two!
* Elizabeth loves her Baby Einstein movies. She didn't fall in love with them as early in her life as her brothers' did, but now she really enjoys them. She will say "moomee" and go to the drawer and get them out herself.
* She LOVES bath time and would stay in the bath all night if we let her!
* (added later): At her 18-month appointment, which was a week and a half after she officially turned 18 months, she weighed exactly 20 pounds and was about 32 inches. That means she is in the 60th percentile in height, and below the charts in weight! The doctor as always said he wasn't worried since he knows our family, but then he commented that it looks like she'll be taller than her mom :)
