Rolling Over

Elizabeth rolled over last week Thursday, at 16 weeks, from her back to her belly. She rolls to her right! We are still in Wisconsin this week. Pack and Elizabeth went to go see cousin Charlie at the Mequon Fire Department. Charlie treated us to a nice lunch and then gave us a personal tour of the Fire Station! And on Friday, Auntie Elizabeth took little Elizabeth and Pack to the Milwaukee Zoo with me. We rode the steam engine and we saw elephants, giraffes, hippopotamuses, hyenas and cows.

No time to start blogging like the present. We have been in Wisconsin since the end of June, enjoying the perfect summer weather. Elizabeth had her 14 week check up today with Dr. Dorrington, my pediatrician from when I was little. He complimented her on her beautiful eyes, how strong she is, saying she has advanced motor skills. She weighed 14lbs 1oz, which puts her in the 80th percentile for weight and the 90ths percentile for height (25 in) and 85% in head circumference. Elizabeth is desperately trying to roll over from front to back.

Pack made up a rhyme all by himself last week. It started with a walk to the park where he saw a plastic lawn ornament of a Canadian goose, which lead to Goosey Loosey stories. Pack's rhyme went as follows:

Goosey Loosey went in the hay.
Goosey Loosey was okay.
And Goosey Loosey had a niiiice day.
