Apparently her pajamas didn't get put away this morning . . .
I love that she got the shirt on fairly correctly!
She thought it was so funny!
Other things I want to remember about her right now:
Elizabeth has grown up so much in the last few months. She is now starting to string 2 and 3 words together.
She loves her baby dolls and insists on having them in bed with her. Whenever we go get her up, the doll with removable clothes is always undressed. But Elizabeth will say "diaper" and insist on me dressing the doll again before laying down to sleep the next time -- so funny!
She is a smart girl. Ryan was especially impressed the other night when Elizabeth helped us get ready for dinner. The dishwasher was open and the boys' plates (Star Wars for Nathan, Spiderman for Benjamin, and Cat in the Hat for Joshua) were clean in there. She saw that other family members were setting the table so she got out everyone's plates, one at a time, and said the right name of the brother and took them their plate! She does similar things with shoes and coats, too.
Elizabeth likes to clean and organize. Not to say that she isn't messy -- the area around the highchair will prove that she is a normal messy baby! But when she sees sponges, rags, brooms, and anything that resembles cleaning supplies she loves to "clean" with them. Anytime she eats fruit snacks (or other foods in packages), she insists on handing me the trash right away. If we are in the car, I will tell her to put it next to her leg in the car seat while I'm driving, but she is not satisfied until I take it from her! When she sees trash on the floor at home, she will pick it up and walk it right to the trash can!
This girl has so much personality and makes us smile everyday!

I love the new family picture!
Hopefully Elizabeth will always love to clean! Wouldn't that be great?!
She is growing up so fast! I love the things you wrote about her. It's fun to read about what kids do. And congrats on finishing your basement. That's exciting. I look forward to that day, but I think it may be a long way off!
Can I rent her for a while! I could use another member of the Clean Up Committee here. The boys are pretty good but I'd welcome another helper anytime!
