Eliza's Big Day
TWO YEARS AGO TODAY....
ONE YEAR AGO TODAY.....
TODAY.......
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELIZA GRACE!!
We had a really fun day celebrating the baby of our family turning two years old today....
Claire started Eliza's day off right right with french toast and candles and the first of maybe 12 happy birthday songs! Also got serenaded by Grandaddy and Grandmom via Skype!
Then we met daddy on the skytrain and headed down the Dusit Zoo downtown. It was HOT but we enjoyed the animals. Eliza's favorites were the tiger and the big turtle she's pointing at here.
Claire with a strange animal called a tamir which looks like a cross between a pig and elephant!
We saw quite a few monks at the zoo (they were having a large Buddhist rally at the nearby parliment building and apparently some of them slipped away to enjoy the animals). Upon seeing the first several groups of them Eliza shouted "Monks!" and pointed at them. One of them heard her, but seemed more amused than offended.
Eliza devouring an icing tree from her cake.
Enjoying some presents. Thanks family for the great birthday packages in the mail. Eliza and Claire are going to have a great day tomorrow playing with all the new toys!! Masts- Eliza loved the e-mail video and cracked up at Elmo in the backgound! Dara- thanks for singing!
We are really proud of our big girl and having so much fun watching her grow. We love you Eliza!!

Eliza, i love your birthday dress in the pictures. It was fun being able to see you on your birthday. Dara had fun talking to you about the zoo and hearing about the animals that you had seen. You are getting so big! We love you and miss you,
