Just Because She's So Pretty

From Aug 2011

I absolutely love this picture. It's hard to get good pictures of Lizbeth these days. She would much rather come see what you are photographing than be in the picture itself. This is such a good picture of where she is right now. Sweet smile, her hair with a touch of curl, so many pearly white teeth poking through. The only thing not evident in this picture is just how busy she is!

Lizbeth is into everything these days, running, climbing, dancing, spinning. She's super cute, and has a sweet personality. Generally feels really bad when she does something wrong (if I don't catch her throwing food off her plate, I'm usually alerted to it by her telling herself "no, no!"). She's still not much one for cuddling, but she loves to sit in your lap to play with toys or read a book. For 30 seconds, that is. :-) Everyone exclaims about just how smart and good-natured she is, Chinese and foreigners alike! She loves the ocean, and going places. She loves wrestling with her daddy and going for bikerides. She sleeps great (takes 1 minute to put down at night), though she is an early riser! Somewhere between 5:15 and 6:00 we can count on hearing her cries for us. She also loves to eat, but is starting to be a bit of a picky eater.

Overall she is a delight, and we feel so blessed to have her in our lives.
