Every day Liza has so many more words and ideas. She loves to have things explained to her so that she can repeat the steps back to you. Everyone comments on how cute her gallop/prance/dance-y way of running is. Every night at dinner she gives us live entertainment with her dancing and laughing. She loves music and will request songs by name. Just last night she was singing "Echa Pa'lla by Pitbull in her crib after I put her to bed. She loves when there is a puddle in out cul-de-sac to jump in.
We went swimming yesterday and she really enjoyed it after being skeptical at first and wanting to "go bye bye" as soon as we got in. She didn't want to leave! I also filled a plastic bin with corn flakes and she's been enjoying playing with the bin using spoons and cups.
We got a second opinion on Ryan's illness at Johns Hopkins on Tuesday and it was a very long appointment. She did really well with snacks and books while the Doctors talked to Ryan. The are confident that he is getting the right treatment at hershey and they think this could be a one-time illness and he may never relapse.

Spring update
Although it's not officially spring...
My mom is back and visiting with us again this week. Liza is in total bliss playing with Grandma all day. She's been showing off with how many words she's been learning and she is still dancing all the time, even when she runs she looks like she is dancing a little. She requests songs by name still. She loves Harry Belafonte's version of Hine Ma Tov and his Hava Nagila duet with Danny Kaye which we play on youtube.
Last week we celebrated Christmas with Ryan's family. We had dinner at his aunts house and had to head down to the basement during a tornado warning! Liza had fun playing with her cousins and we enjoyed spending time with everyone. Liza got an awesome teepee for the front room along with several other really neat gifts.
I'm at the library right now while my mom is home with Liza. I'm editing a couple submissions for the Lady Blue Publishing bi-annual literary magazine. I'm excited that my writing will actually be published soon!
I've also managed to sew Liza an Easter dress complete with matching hat and shoes. I'm not sure if i"ll make anything for her to wear on her birthday, but I might...I just might.
Ryan has been feeling much better and stronger. We are still dealing with some questions and his medications have been adjusted and added to. We are planning on getting a second opinion at Johns Hopkins as soon as he has another CTA and a urology consult next week.
Prayers are very welcome that we can put his health issues behind us very soon. We are so thankful that he is home and feeling well enough to be back to work full time.
