3 year check up

Last Monday, Elizabeth had her 3 year physical. Here are her stats:

weight: 30 lbs (42%ile)
height: 2' 11" (19%ile)

This kid cracks me up. The second the doctor came into the exam room, E kept asking her when she would get to say "ah..." This was after telling me the whole drive over there that she would NOT say "ah..." LOL

Fun at the pool!

Today we went with my friend Misty and her 5 year old son Paden to a really fun pool with slides and and a playground next to it. The kids had a great time :)

Beaching it :)

Saturday, Cranes Beach with friends Meghan and Brianna...

Sunday, Sandy Beach, where we ran into one of Elizabeth's classmates!

A very hot, fun sandy weekend!!

She's 3!!

Today, my little girl turned 3- wow!!! I took her to a nearby beach and playground, where she quickly made friends with some other kids. Too cute :)

Happy Birthday, sweetie pie!! I love you!!

Three year portraits

Well, I don't think these came out too badly, considering Elizabeth's level of cooperation was...not too high. I especially enjoyed getting to chase her around Sears while trying to select which photos I wanted afterward. Ugg... This is an annual tradition, each year on or around her birthday, I have her pictures done professionally. Year one was pretty easy (she was crawling, but not walking yet), year two and this year were tough. I'm hoping year four will be easier!!

Early birthday party for the almost 3 year old :)

Elizabeth's birthday is on the 11th, so we decided to have a little celebration on Monday night in Maine, since a lot of the family was together.

This picture is out of order cause I can't seem to move it to the bottem of this post (sometimes blogger is really frustrating!!) Anyway, out on the deck setting off a "birthday sparkler" with Grandma and Aunt Betsy...
Below, having her first taste of lobster. She took one bite and said, "Gross!", then a few minutes later took another bite and said she liked it. :)

Blowing out her birthday candles...

She got some adorable outfits and presents from Grandma and Aunt Betsy, unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of her opening them. Oops...

More from Maine

Elizabeth and I returned back to work and Day Care today after a wonderful long weekend with family in Maine. Here are some more pics from the weekend.
On Sunday night, we went to our cousins' house for dinner. Elizabeth loved playing with my cousin Barb's two boys, who were adopted 3 years ago from Russia.

On Monday, we went to go pick up some lobster for dinner that night (can't really see them in this picture).

Elizabeth also loved playing down on the rocks. The water actually wasn't too cold for Maine!
