These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

For the two of you that read my blog...it has been a while since I have blogged. The main reason being that Mike got a new job!!! This is a great thing, he doesn't have to travel anymore! Maybe once a year instead of once a month! The only downside is that he no longer has his work laptop and that's where we kept all of our pictures. Now all we have is old bertha pc that we bought in 2002 and it takes way too long to download pictures and stuff. So I will just record some of my favorite kid things over the past few months.
Eliza always had hiccups when I was pregnant with her. One Dr. visit she was hiccuping when he was checking her heartbeat. When she came out she still got the hiccups all the time. But, a few months ago the hiccups stopped, I kinda miss them they were so cute.
8/5/10 Ben was reading a book and came to the word pal and asked what a pal was. I said that a pal is like a friend. Ben said ,"a pal is kinda like me and grandpa Buddy cause we really like each other". (Grandpa Buddy is my dad)
Hailey says mustard munsterd, and Ben still says aminal for animal
8/20/10 We went on a Daybreak amazing race where we followed clues through Daybreak and got prizes and ice cream and treats. At the end we watched Tarzan in the park. When Tarzan grew up in the movie, Ben said "he's a daddy now but he's wearing a diaper, weird huh?"
9/1/10 Eliza learned to super roll! So much for crawling, super rolling gets her across the room and wherever she wants to go. She can even change directions and go sideways
9/8/10 Eliza loves to eat her toes yum!
9/12/10 Ben was being crazy so Mike told him to go outside. Ben's feelings were hurt, so he went up to his room and was crying "mama mia, mama mia, mama mia"
9/25/10 We were at my families house and Eliza said Aly, it was so crazy
9/29/10 Eliza said mama without crying it
10/5/10 We were leaving to go somewhere and I was in the house getting Eliza ready. Mike and Hailey were in the garage. Mike opened the garage and then heard a scream from Hailey. He looked over and saw Hailey being pulled up by the garage. He ran over and was worried that her fingers were stuck because she was screaming, he didn't know what to do to lower the garage or try to get her. He went under her and she let go and fell into his arms safe with no harm. She told him she wanted a ride so held onto the bottom of the garage door as it went up. Luckily Mike caught her because our garage is higher than normal, she was hanging 10 feet in the air! She is a strong little thing!
10/19/10 Ben's 6th Birthday! On his big day poor little guy had to have his tonsils out. He was such a good sport, and had a really fun time at the hospital before the surgery. The nurses made him a happy birthday card and rounded up a truck and motorcycle for him. The surgical team even sang him Happy Birthday in the OR. When he was coming out of anesthesia the Dr.'s were really worried because he had his bear with him and they kept trying to give it to him to comfort him. Ben would hold it but then say it wasn't his bear. They let me come back and said he was hallucinating because he didn't know the bear was his. I laughed, he had brought the kinderbear to surgery, because it was his week to take care of the kindergarten bear. He was just trying to tell them it wasn't his bear but he was just taking care of it.
Eliza also learned to crawl backwards and clap
10/20/10 Eliza first tooth! (bottom middle right)
10/21/10 Eliza's second tooth! (bottom middle left) This explains why she was a crazy sleeper for a week!
10/24/10 Eliza is scooting crawling a lot more. She looks like a caterpillar when she crawls, she puts her head down then scoots, then looks up to see where she is, then keeps going. My favorite thing she does is to turn into a little tent. She puts her head and hands and feet down on the ground and pushes her bum up so she looks like a tent and looks between her legs at whatever is behind her.
October was the month of Eliza saying mama all the time, so cute!
11/3/10 Eliza said dada! Mike was very happy about this! Now when he comes home she says, dadadadada! Eliza also has learned to wave with her cute little right hand and she claps a lot.
Ben says "of course" all the time.
