Eliza has started to enunciate her R sounds. Sometimes she'll catch herself saying a word the "old" way and correct it. It's not like I wanted her to have a life long speech impediment or anything, but I'm a little sad to see her old way of pronunciation go! It reminds me of other things she used to say that are now distant memories, like "cock corn" for popcorn, or "rispy crispy treats", or how she made us call her Rosa for over a year! Or even when she was a baby and used to say "goya goya goya" or "pock pock" instead of "pat pat" when someone coughed and she'd pat them on the back. She's such a big girl now! In fact, the other day at Home Depot, S said, "Darn it. They don't have the part I need" and Eliza said, "Dad, I'm glad you didn't say damn it." LOL! We've been talking a lot about our upcoming vacation and the other day at school Eliza told one of her teachers, "Sorry I won't be able to make it for your birthday party. We'll be at our cabin." The teacher got a kick out of it. I assured her we don't actually have our own cabin. :)
I need to remember to document the little things Ezra is doing, especially since now I know how quickly they grow up. He has a different smile now, more of a grin, with all of his teeth showing and a wrinkled nose. Even though he looks just like Daddy, I'm pretty sure the wrinkled nose look is all mine. He still says, "whoa!" all of the time and the other day he said, "ki cat" for kitty cat. Saturday morning I took him on a kitty cat neighborhood tour and he loved it. One cat even came up and let Ezra pet him. Sometimes he imitates Eliza and last night he imitated her squeal.

How sweet! I can't believe how fast they grow! Eliza cracks me up, telling her teacher that. :)
Can't wait to see Ezra's big new smile. Try to snap a pic, if you can. :)
