Elizabeth is obsessed with her new cousin Felix and visiting him in Santa Fe. Almost every day, she asks us "is today the day we're going to Santa Fe?" and she gets upset when she finds out that it's not. Yesterday, I asked her if she would like me to make a calendar for her, so we could count down the days and she got very excited - "and baby Jesus will be on it?" (we had an advent calendar at Christmas and she loved having baby Jesus in her kitchen). Baby Felix is not quite baby Jesus (sorry Mike and Kelly), but I made one yesterday and this morning, she crossed off her first day. Six weeks to go!
She's still struggling with all of the letters in her name, so I think that we'll try to teach her to how to spell Felix during the course of the countdown.

That was a good idea! Have they been on a plane before?
