Eliza at 33 Months

 Isn't Eliza beautiful?!  I can't get enough of her sweet smiles and fun personality.  She cracks me up!  She is our "thank you" monitor.  If a kind word is spoken or good deed done without the recipient giving thanks, Eliza will quickly remind with a questions she's heard a time or two: "What do you say when someone [says something nice to you]?"

I think Eliza is just like me (the older sister, "Miss Bossypants" version of me).  She is a little mommy, making sure Caleb does what he's told.  She's an enforcer and an informant.

Eliza earned purple Dora boots for filling up her obedience jar.  I got them at a yard sale and thought they were just one size too big.  When she put them on, I realized they are a kids size 10 instead of a toddler size 10.  She doesn't mind one bit.  It doesn't stop her from wearing them every chance she gets. 

Eliza's umbrella was another fifty cent yard sale purchase.  She loves having an umbrella.  She likes to just stand in the yard under her umbrella when it rains.

Eliza is learning the art of making silly faces, thanks to a favorite Dora book that poses the question "What's your silliest face?"  She loves to ask to see our silly faces. 

Eliza loves her kid-sized rake.  It makes our grown up rakes a lot more useful when little hands are occupied with this one.  Only mistake- I only bought one.  Poor Caleb felt left out.
