Eliza is Three!

 

Sweet, sweet Eliza - you're already 3 years old! You are up to so much right now. You say the cutest things sometimes. Here are some of my recent favorites:
- "It's just a mow lawner guys. Chill down!"
- "Mommy, I have a kangaroo sore" (meaning a canker sore)
- "I need one more taste - for my tongue."
- During her prayer, "bless Lenora - (while pointing to her) 'you cutie! you cutie!'"

You like to spend your days playing like a wild child with Hazel. You love to play baby and can frequently be found crawling around talking in a baby voice. You also love all things dress up and princess. You have such a sweet relationship with Hazel. She is your model for everything. In fact, when I asked you who you wanted to invite to your party you said, "Hazel." When she's not around you're much more shy. You even tell me sometimes that you don't like kids haha. I love that you two share such a special bond.

You love life and exploring. You also love to have things your way and get upset when you're corrected. When you get really mad you always tell us "Leave me alone!" or "I don't want to talk to you!" You have a pretty good pouty face when you want to too.

Health wise you're doing awesome! You've gained 4 pounds in the last year (bringing you up to the 0.8 percentile) which is huge for you! You're blood counts were also the highest they've ever been! Mommy and Daddy asked the doctor to check them because you've seemed really tired, but guess you've just been playing too hard. We are so thankful your body continues to work as it should. It's truly a blessing from our Heavenly Father.

Ellie, your lovey, is still your constant companion and comfort.  You like to pretend like she's your baby and take care of her. You do a great job!

Eliza, we love your smile. We love how you help invite the spirit in to your home. We love when you want to cuddle with us or curl up on our lap for a minute.  We love your fishy kisses.

 Happy Birthday beautiful girl!
