March

We started a new swim class every sat at the ymca closer to the house. Since its on Sat, daddy gets to go and he has almost taught her to blow bubbles!

On March 6, we went to the Zilker Kite festival and Lizzy tried her first pita bread. She loves bread just like her Daddy. There wasn't much wind for the kites but Lizzy had a great time looking at all the people. After, we brought her to her first Music concert (Ian played to raise money for the clean water for Malawi project). She was a little scared by the load music but then started to really enjoy it and jump and crawl around. She sat with three of her great aunts and charmed everyone in the room.


The next week she spent with her Grandpa and uncle Ian who was in town from Whales. Ian bought her an amazing Giraffe named Gerald and sang many songs to her. Ian also told us that in Whales, there is a flower called "busy Lizzy" and here they are called impatience.  Lizzy is certainly busy and sometimes a little impatient. We will have to plant several of Lizzy's flowers soon.

Here's Lizzy and Uncle E

The week of Spring Break, her Grandma Bonnie watched her two days and they had a great time. She pushed a baby around her stroller and played and played.

Her Daddy took off three days with her and her mommy took off 2. We went to a St. Patrick's day festival and planted a garden. Lizzy's started saying hi when she waves hello.

Then last week of the month Lizzy completed several mile stones.  On March 26, she actually chewed her Cherio's without swallowing them and ate chunks of banana and mango. On March 27 Lizzy stood twice all by herself. Then on March 28, she stood and took her first step. That same day she started clapping! 

Here is our big girl eating a California roll!
