E and her latest boyfriend

Last week Elizabeth's latest boyfriend from school, Ethan, invited her to a "members only" event at Pretend City.

As you can see they had lots of fun and particularly liked driving the BMW. Although E has been known to prefer a Ferrari.

We figure Ethan is headed to Medical school since both of his parents are doctors. So, needless to say, we are encouraging the relationship.

Manolo Blahniks?

If the headline of this blog doesn't mean anything to you, you may not appreciate the photo as much. But suffice it to say, Elizabeth loves her high heeled shoes--so much so that she had to take them to bed with her to make certain that Bodhi didn't touch them. You know how cats just LOVE to wear high heels.

Yeah, she really wants to wear them all the time. I had put them in my closet and had plans to throw them out since she falls all over the place when she wears them. Of course she tracked them down and now refuses to let go of them.

She is such a girl. She told me she wants 20 pairs of shoes. Actually I think she has about that many. Mommy has 3 pairs...she has 20. What is wrong with this picture?



Merry Go Round...and Round

Yes, so now that Elizabeth has discovered the Merry Go Round, she does want to ride it...A LOT. And yes, we indulged her the last time she rode it and let her go on it 6, yes, 6, times in a row. Hey, she had to make up for lost time. Yeah, 10 bucks for 6 rides. When she asks us about her college fund in 15 years, we'll have to let her know we spent it on the Merry Go Round.

After almost 3 years...

Who would have guessed it. After 3 years of being petrified of the Merry Go Round, as were walking through the Irvine Spectrum mall, Elizabeth spied the Merry Go Round. I figured we would have to walk the usual way around it to avoid Elizabeth having to even "look" at it--since she was always so afraid of it we couldn't even walk next to it--suddenly she announced, "I wanna go on it." I did a few double takes and probably asked her four times to be sure, "You want to go ON the Merry Go Round?" Yep, she wanted to go on it.

So she did. About half a dozen times. And as you can see here she decided that she also wanted to ride with Michelle, Emma's mom. She loves Michelle, especially since Michelle carries her around the mall whenever Elizabeth asks. I figure that the degree of Elizabeth's adoration is someone linked to the amount of time you spend carrying her around.

I have a lot of video of this day, but my new "not so "Incredible" Droid Incredible has a problem linking video to the internet. Stay tuned.

Holly and Elizabeth

Holly gave Elizabeth a real treat last week when she headed down for a visit. Did Elizabeth love her? Oh yes. Her only complaint was that Holly had to leave. When she woke up the next morning, she said, "I want Holly EVERY DAY". Yeah, me too.

E and K in White

Here are Elizabeth and Kaila donning their white "twin" dresses.



If you haven't seen Elizabeth in a while, I can tell you this--she is tall.
The other day she was in the bathtub and looked up at me and said, "I have long legs", oh, yeah she sure does. She is about 40 inches tall --which is in the 90th percentile for height and she weight 36 pounds-about 80th percentile. Not too shabby!

And a Fine" How Do You Do" to you too!
