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!
