Dress-up

Elizabeth LOVES to dress-up and pretend to be every character in every story she has ever heard or read. She started this trend back in February, but she is still going strong and then some. She is constantly "changing" between characters. Keeping up with who she is at various moments throughout the day can be quite a challenge. She is always sure to assign roles to everybody else as well. For a long time, I was always "The Evil Queen," which was totally unfair because Ed was always the prince, but she has since branched out in her character assignments, and things are much more evenly balanced!

Here are some photos and footage of some of my favorite ensembles from the past few months...

Easter eggs!

We spent Easter weekend in Morganton this year. Elizabeth was SO excited to dye eggs at Grandma's house. In fact, one morning the week before Easter, she came into our room at 5:00am to ask if it was time to go to Grandma's house and dye eggs! It was not the time or even the day, and I have since learned not to give her quite so much warning about trips to Grandma's house and such.

There was a lot of splashing and several cracked eggs, but she eventually got the hang of "gently" and was quite pleased with her finished products.
