Isabelle wanted to talk on the phone, so Mike called Nana and here is part of the conversation.
Enjoy!

Can you believe it...
Two posts in less then a month!! Incredible :P
Isabelle has been up to her usual tricks, being absolutely cute with a some terribleness thrown in...lol. She has started to say a few more words...hi and all gone (in her own way). Besides that she is still not walking, but is getting more confident standing on her own everyday though.
It is hard to believe she is going to be a big sister next week!! We are very excited to have another little person to add to our family, but at the same time it makes me a little sad to realize that our time with just Isabelle is coming to an end. Sometimes I feel a little guilty about it, that I am taking away the attention that she deserves a bit too soon. I know all will be well, but I love this little Izzy so much, that it is hard to think of another coming. It will be interesting to see how she interacts with the new baby, I am pretty confident though that she will love having a little baby around...well most of the time!
I thought I would put up some recent pictures as well as a couple of videos that I have taken recently.
The next post will hopefully have pictures of new baby too!! Crazy!! :)
Enjoy!

Playing catch up
Wow...I had no idea as to how long it had been since I last made a post on here...almost two months...oops.
Isabelle has been up to her usual antics...being super cute! This past week she has started to stand some on her own, which is very exciting, seeing that she is now 15 months. She loves "talking" up a storm and reading her books. Isabelle has also taken a recent liking to my DS...not sure if it is a habit I should support or not though (following in her father's footsteps I think). She is becoming more aware of different words and associating them with things...Dada is of course Mike...pup-pup for Koda...a kitty type noise for Nala...she will sometimes say the full word for banana, but usually it is nana, which is the word she seems to associate with all foods and drinks. She can say mama/mom, but she has yet to associate a word with me, I think mainly because she is home all day and when Mike comes home we say Daddy is home.
It is strange to have a new baby coming though in less then 5 weeks now, and not being able to really talk much about it with her (seeing that she doesn't understand what is happening). I do point to my belly and say that there is a baby in there and she will come over and pull my shirt up and kiss my belly button and then sometimes she will show me her belly after. It will be interesting to see how she will be with the baby, she is so loving with all her dolls that I think she will just want to kiss it all day.
I figured I should put up a few recent pics, as well as some videos that we have taken of her, so everyone can see all the new and fun things she has been up to :)
Enjoy!

I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night....
Well we just got back from a great shopping trip to the states! Mike and I had our first weekend away in quite a while and probably our last for a while...:). We spoiled ourselves a little and spoiled the babies a lot! Isabelle spent Friday night with Nana Sue and then Saturday night with Nana and Papa. She was a great girl all weekend! We were very excited to get back home to see her!
While we were away we bought Isabelle a drum that came filled with lots of fun shakers and drumsticks. Here are a couple of recent pictures and a video of her being a rockstar!
Enjoy!

Don't worry...we are still here!
Wow...it has been a while. My intentions with this blog was to keep it fairly up to date and try to have a new post at least once a week...well that hasn't happened. I feel a bit bad about that too, because I haven't really been keeping track of things in a baby book, so I was depending on Isabelle's blog to remind me when different things have happened. Oh well..that is the life of a pregnant Mom with a one year old I guess.
Isabelle turned 13 months yesterday! She is growing like crazy too! At her doctor's appointment last month she had gained 3.5 pounds in one month, so that brought her up to just about 19 pounds. She is still not walking, although we have been trying to encourage her to stand on her own by slowly letting go when we are helping her walk. She will sometimes stand for a second but then will get down on her bum. She seems very afraid of hurting herself, but I am sure she will get the hang of it soon. She loves to play with her toys and read her books. She also has a huge love of music. She will dance away whenever she hears music playing, it is pretty cute, and she has pretty good rhythm. She gets cuter everyday and her personality gets more and more prominent. She has discovered the evil eye and her new favourite noise to make is an "o" sound. All in all she has been doing very well.
Here are a few pictures from the last month as well as some shirts we made for Isabelle and the new baby.
Enjoy!
