A friend of ours little girl is turning 2 this month so we attended the b-day party and Isabella while almost the youngest was taller than the two boys that were there who are 4 to 6 months older! My girl hamming it up and then trying to get all the 2 and unders to pose for a photo, as you can see not very successful. Isabella would not sit on the couch without her daddy and you can see how funny he thought the whole situation was.

I am so not good at updating this blog and I am sorry for those who do check back. Here is my little girl: in her party dress for her friend's 1st b-day, after picking strawberries (well, to be accurate she sat on my lap while I knelt on the ground picking strawberries and she was eating them as fast as she could hence the juice all over her clothes) and eating some berries with whip cream. Then I had to include a photo of my first baby or a recent photo of my Polo!!

First Haircut

Well, since she refused to keep a hairclip in her hair I had to break down and take her to get her first haircut. I was very aprehensive about it, would it be a nightmare experience? Could I handle my baby getting her hair chopped off? Okay to those non parents it might seem a bit dramatic but practically everything becomes slightly dramatic when it comes to your baby who is now a toddler!

I will say once I got over the initial shock of seeing her with bangs, I think she looks pretty darn cute with them. Now she does not have to swipe the hair off her face so she can see and it was not a huge drama with tears on my part or hers.

snow

Now this was not technically Isabella's first snowfall but it is the first one she could actually enjoy somewhat. She was not too sure about it that will change next year!

You will also see one photo she is standing next to me and then when I tried to snap another one she fell - much to my amusement!

Walking

Well, not too long after Thanksgiving Isabella started walking everywhere! Now she is even running but tends to fall. They are so amazing though we have also suffered a few bruises now.

There is a photo here of her Nana pulling her in the diaper box, that was great fun for Isabella.

Halloween

I almost forgot to include Halloween, how silly of me. Isabella was a little blue princess and enjoyed playing with her friend Sophia who was chicken. They were so cute but I don't have a photo of them together!

1st birthday

Isabella celebrated her first birthday in early November though she did not know why everyone was singing to her. She did enjoy her friends coming over, Sophia, Maya and Dylan.
