Time Flies



So I don't have a great excuse as to why it has been MONTHS since I've posted.

All I can say is, time flies when you're having fun!


Isa News

I never thought I'd be "that parent", but I guess I am.
Isa is a genius! She really is!!
She talks all the time! Puts little sentences together and picks up new words daily.
People, she's not even 15 months!
And she loves sign language!
Her favorite sign is "baby"


She loves to hug and started giving kisses yesterday (she did it when I told her I loved her!)
Awww!!


She is SUPER active. She demands to be outside playing on our deck, chasing the dogs,
or on a long walk/jog in her stroller.


She is still not sleeping through the night, but hey, she's a busy gal!


She is the happiest baby I've ever met, and people often comment on that when they meet her.
Unless she has to stop playing or is under the weather, she is laughing & smiling.


She is very mischeivous!
Isa loves to try to play in the cat/dog water bowl daily..
.. she is so wonderful, we thought we'd have another..
we're trying for #2 now!

Daddy News
Thomas is doing awesome at work.
We're so happy that in a rough economy, Thomas' company is doing just great!
He is starting to have time to golf again!
And loves to go jogging with Isa.
And of course he's looking forward to hunting season later this year :o)
Mommy News
I'm in the process of filing my first patent!!
Of course it's crafty related..
I'm hoping to license it, make some $$, and be done with it..
I really don't want to start yet another business :o)
My etsy sales are great!
The library is wonderful!
Still volunteering with Junior League, and looking forward to more fundraisers!
We're so blessed!
I'll try to be back to updating on a regular basis!
Miss photos? Please check out the Flickr account for the latest..
(Not too many new ones right now, but that too will be updated this week!)

In Cora's Memory

I don't know what I would if something happened to Isabelle. My heart leaps out of my chest every time she falls, my heart breaks whenever she has an owie.. So when I read about Cora Paige last night, I spent most of the evening crying.

Please, please, please consider buying something from a Etsy crafter that is donating proceeds to Cora's playground. I bought a few for Isa's birthday.

Hug your kids today and tell them you love them!

MORE!

Isa understands AND can now do the sign for MORE!

Could two parents be any prouder?
I think not!

Not Every Girl Loves Tutus


So Angel Pie hates tutus.. Maybe it's itchy, maybe too busy? I don't know, but they make her grumpy! So we had an unhappy Valentine..





Check out Flickr for more Valentine pictures (and the rare smile today..)

Bliss

Do you know what bliss is?
Today bliss is watching my baby girl play with my best friend's son.
It just doesn't get any better than watching Quinn hug Isabelle
and try shove some Cheerios in her mouth!
Thomas found the viedo camera and hopefully
they will be just as cute today as they were yesterday.
This weekend will be my "happy place" for awhile..
I'll post pics when Karen & Quinn fly home,
I don't want to miss a minute of the action!

Big Girl

Isa can now
* walk while holding your hands
* crawl in warp speed
* laugh when you say "no" or "stop"
* feed the dogs her food
* eat all grown up food - no more home made purees!
She also has a TON of teeth coming in all at once..
I was wondering for how much longer she'd only have those 2 chompers!
