...bet you thought this blog was defunct, didn't cha?
Well I'm back, baby!
Sorta - I have a minute and about 35 other things I should be doing but I wanted to hop on before the year was over and do a quick update.
Liza is 3.5 years old. Wow! What an age. She is saying some of the funniest and cutest things, so completely adorable, and along with that some big emotions and not always the tools to handle them. It's a challenge but I thank God every day for my healthy, happy girl.
She is still really into soldiers, nutcrackers, bagpipers, and pretty much any type of job or occasion in which a person wears a fancy suit. Or is in a parade. Or a marching band. You get the idea.
Double Play wrapped up, Liza had a great time there every Tuesday morning.
We had a great visit home for easter, a fun birthday party at my mom's house, and made special memories in Ocean City again this year. Liza saw the Miss New Jersey parade and one of the contestants was dressed up as Frida Kahlo and Liza was enthralled. It was pretty neat.
We spent a lot of time with our friends going to playgrounds, play dates, and meeting up various places all over town. I'm so happy that we have good friends to make memories with.
Liza also started gymnastics this summer and really took to it. She has lots of fun on the balance beam, bars, and rings. We are continuing with it this fall.
We visited Ohio for a week in August and Liza went to the Natural History Museum in Cleveland, and Oh Wow in Youngstown where she also met her Aunt Jenny for the first time. Liza had a great Ohio week with Nana, Pop pop, and my parents.
Ballet started at Tap N Arts dance studio in September and Liza is so cute in her outfits every week. We can't wait til her recital in the spring.
We visited Canfield again in October for my Grandma Rose's 88th birthday, celebrated with a nice dinner at Stonebridge Restaurant.
We are back into the holidays now after a fun Halloween dressed as a cowbow family for trick-or-treating and as a dia de muertos skeleton girl (with a homemade dress!) for a friend's Halloween party.
We are planning on taking Liza to see the nutcracker this season after a teaser freebie show at Barnes and Nobel. We think she'll love it!
Until next time! (which will be next year, lets be real!)
