Riding the zebra with Daddy

Eliza completely adored the carousel...when it wasn't moving with her on it. This photo was taken moments before the ride started spinning and she started screaming.

We kicked off Father's Day weekend with a trip to the Houston Zoo, which is only about a mile from home. Eliza had a great time watching all the animals, but her favorite part was definitely all the fun stuff to do in the Children's Zoo section.

She really kept Mommy and Daddy chasing after her.

Fun Father's Day (and weekend)

At Discovery Green right now. We're having a fun morning playing in the fountains. Eliza was a little scared at first, but she's warming up to the water. She likes splashing us.
We started the day by taking Dada out to breakfast. Happy Father's Day to the best daddy ever.
We'll post some better pics later of our fun weekend adventures.

Lately Eliza has become obesessed with all shoes. She loves taking them on and off. Here she is in Baby Gap trying on a pair she picked off the shelves. Hmmm...she already likes shoes and shopping. We are in trouble.

Time for the 18 month doctor's visit! Eliza had fun kicking the exam room paper and yelling to hear her voice reverberate on the walls. She wasn't so much a fan of the nurse, and the shot that she gave Eliza.

Here's her new stats:
weight: 25lbs,10oz - 50-75%
height: 33.75" - 95% (tall!)
head: 19.24"

Eliza knows her parts!

We already knew that she loves dipping her fries in ketchup, but we've recently discovered her love of all things "Tex Mex" including chips and salsa.

Eliza loves the accordion music

We went to a folk music night in Herman Park, and Eliza loved dancing to all the accordion music. There's a little bit of it in this video - it was hard to capture, as she always stopped when she realized she was being videotaped.

These ladies are true Astros fans

Tonight we went down the street to Minute Maid Park to watch the Houston Astros take on the Colorado Rockies. Eliza loved all the cheering, dancing, clapping, and talking baseball with everyone around us.

Her and Mommy both wore some cute, girly team shirts while Daddy sported a jersey made from some strange, space-age fabric.
