Dear Eliza, (written around 9/25/12)
Just this week I've had several people comment to me that you are "almost 1" Um, I beg to differ. There are still 4 more months before your 1st birthday and we will not be celebrating 1 day sooner. In fact, your birthday celebration may have to wait til the day after your birthday since you were born at 10:42pm... and I just can't bear to make you grow up any faster than you already are.
This last month I have watched you change and grow in ways I originally thought would just break my heart. But with each new thing you do, I reazlize that I love you more than the day before and would never wish you to go back in time even for a second. You are growing, learning, loving and stealing your Daddy's heart and mine more and more each day.
All month long I was sure another one of your teeth would be coming through as it seemed there was a large portion of the month you were in a rather cranky mood. Though, cranky for you is still pretty happy :) Your favorite new thing to play is "empty the basket" in which I have 4 baskets of toys that I switch out for you and you promptly empty the whole thing to decide just which toy you would like to play with the most ;)
Your reach has gotten better, meaning you like to lean waaaaaaay over to get things not quite within reach and often fall over and end up on your tummy in the process. Once on your tummy, let the rolling begin. In fact, just the other day you rolled over to your new favorite tissue box and began pulling lots and lots of tissues out until Daddy discovered this and stopped you ;)
You're learning and growing more and more each day! I love you baby girl :)
Love,
Mama
