A Little Lady with A Lot of Personality


All if a sudden Elisabeth is a toddler with the desire to be as independent as possible (except when she figures out how to get Jack to do stuff for her) she walks all around just doing her own thing and cracking us up!


She has decided she is just too big for the high chair and much prefers dining with Jack. She takes care of feeding Roxie her meals and never lets us forget when it's time to give Roxie food! She grunts and moans when her diaper is dirty and brings me a clean diaper to change her. She brings us books to read to her. She reaches out her hands and yells "Jaa" when she needs Jack to lift her up on the couch, help her down from her dinner chair, or get her a toy (little diva)! 











She is a total daddy's girl and cries for him at the door even when he just walks outside to grab something or goes upstairs to change his clothes. She always wants him to read to her, chase her and play their games together!



She is adventurous, funny and obsessed with her brother! She watches him all day and we like to remind Jack that he should be a good example for her which he takes very seriously! 




She loves when their friends come over (I babysit a few days a week so Jack and Elisabeth are loving our house full of friends!) 




Keeping bringing all that JOY to our lives Elisabeth Jane! I can't stop smiling when I'm around you and Jack!

A Memorable Day at the Zoo

A few weeks ago we had such a wonderful visit to the zoo! We love the Cincinnati Zoo and can often be found there 2-3 times a week! This particular visit was exciting because so many animals were out to greet us! 


The snow leopard was definitely the coolest! The zookeepers must have drawn peanut butter hearts on the glass and the leopard was going to town!







We met The Milroys at the zoo for this trip and their kids were equally excited about all the animals putting on a show!




The hippo exhibit opened this summer and it has been a big hit! Always a line but always worth the wait!!







A new baby giraffe named Cora was born just a few days before this picture!


And of course this sweet baby was there too! Jack had fun trying a few different hats on her! 


Cincinnati Zoo you NEVER disappoint!
