Goodbye

After Three years of blogging. I am closing the pages of this blog and consolidating our family happenings into one site. From now on I will be blogging our family life on Andrew's blog. http://www.aolsenstory.blogspot.com/

I originally created E and A's blogs to capture milestones and highlights as they grew from infants to toddlers. For Christmas my sweet husband printed and bound the books for safe keeping. I now have a wonderful hard copy of my babies first years. Since I have two children who do everything together it seems more appropriate to capture our lives together as a family instead of individually. We are grateful to all of those who have visited this blog and smiled at our silly Elizabeth. She is a sweet girl.

Play Dough Fun

Give a girl a little play dough and she will be happy for as long as you let her play with it. Elizabeth loved cutting out different shapes with her play dough. After 30 minutes of creativity, she asked for a baking sheet and proceeded to put her creations in the oven to "bake." After I had cleaned up the mess, she had a small panic attack thinking that her "cookies" were gone. I showed her the container of play dough and peace was restored to her world. Hooray for play dough!

Makeup

While Grandma Johnson was staying with us, Elizabeth loved watching her put on her makeup. I walked in the bathroom and this is what I found. Her first run in with lipstick didn't turn out too bad. :-)

New Outfits

Grandma Johnson sent the kids new church clothes. Don't they look great? Thank you Grandma.

Happy Halloween

We had a great Halloween in Bisbee. The church had a trunk or treat for the kids. They were giving candy out by the handfuls. Elizabeth loved being a cowgirl. She chased all the boys around for a good half hour before the trick or treating started. She did a great job of saying trick-or-treat and thank you when the candy was put in her bucket.

A Great Party

Elizabeth had a great time at Aunt Jeremy's baby shower. When we arrived, she walked upstairs and told Aunt Jeremy, "I'm ready to party." Then she said, "we need candles."
Elizabeth loved the game of finding safety pins in rice. She watched Aunt Jeremy do it, and immediately wanted to try it herself. So, she hopped up on the chair and grabbed the bowl. Then Grandma Johnson elisted her help when it was Grandma's turn to find the pins.

Thanks Aunt Jeremy for such a fun time. We love you and can't wait for our new cousin to arrive.

"Mommy, I want to make a snowman."

It snowed in the mountains yesterday. Now every time Elizabeth looks at the snow, she wants to make a snowman. She might get her wish over the weekend.

Making Cookies

Grandma Ross and I baked cookies today. Thanks Grandma Ross. I had fun.

Coloring with Great Grandma Ross

Great Grandma Ross and I are having a great time coloring.

Corn

I helped Grandma shuck corn today. She taught me how to peel off all the layers to find the corn. It's fun.

I also tested a few for quality purposes.
