Toddler days



This week has been a bit challenging on the toddler front to say the least! Eliza is almost 19 months now and we are feeling every bit of it.
On Sunday while at a friend's house I wasn't the most attentive mom and she fell down a flight of stairs...top to bottom and they were steep. It is amazing how "flexible" their little bodies are as she only suffered some minor bleeding around her mouth. Until Lucas discovered later that night she had also chipped the corner off her front tooth. So that called for a trip to the Pediatric Dentist. Everything was fine, no nerve damage and the tooth will round out eventually and not be so jagged. I was so impressed by the office too! It looked like Chuck E Cheese with bright murals, games, entertaining staff and prizes. I really wish I could go there too. Click on this link to see the office although it doesn't do it justice until you see it in person.
While Eliza can be such as sweet little girl throughout the day, she has also been more challenging while sitting in the stroller and being around people she doesn't know too well (especially men). She loves dragging out all of her diapers and scattering throughout the house, she insists on taking her baby everywhere with her and she can reach more things than before. Things such as pens in the office...
Any suggestions on cleaning up this lovely work of art?

The medium was a lovely black ball point pen from our office while I was cooking dinner. I am sure it was a blast to write on microfiber with:)
