Happy 6 Months Isabelle!

Six Months!! Wow! It is hard to believe that she has only been here for that long, it is hard to think of our life without her. She has brought so much into our lives. She has taught me how to be more patient and loving and to realize what is most important in life. It can't believe that a little person can make you learn so much in such a short amount of time.

She has been growing and changing like crazy lately. She is such a pleasant baby, full of smiles and giggles. Even when she is sick and teething, she has a smile on her face. Her personality reminds me so much of Michael's, very patient and laid back (thank goodness :D ). This weekend we saw a baby that was the same size as Isabelle when she was born and it was hard to believe that she was that little, just six short months ago. It makes me want to take in every minute of every day with her, because I know she won't stay small forever. I am looking forward to having the opportunity to stay home with her for more then a year, it will be worth it :)

Another great milestone for us (especially me) to celebrate is that I have been nursing Isabelle for six months strong now. I honestly never thought that I would have it in me to nurse. My original plan was to nurse for a month, but now it is six months later. Our plan now is to continue for the year and to see where that leads us. I know many people will think I am crazy, but hey, if I can do it then why not I guess. I know this may seem strange to many of my readers to celebrate, but for those Mamas who have nursed, they know how hard it is in the beginning to do and to stick with it. I did originally give up, so I guess that is my main reason for being so happy that I am still doing it.

Well here is one picture from today of our Isabelle :) I will have to post some others soon!

Enjoy!
