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.

Isabella also got to see her other grandparents who live in Houston and they have not seen her since she was 3 weeks old!

Thanksgiving 07

For Thanksgiving Isabella and I flew to Texas to see my brother and his family. Isabella had a great time with her cousins who are 7 1/2, 5 1/2 and 4. She was walking a little bit but enjoyed the stairs more than anything at their house. She got quite good climbing them.

the actual wedding

October 07

In October of this year we took a plane ride to Rhode Island for a friend's wedding and Isabella was quite the hit. She was sooooo good on the plane and even though she did not sleep much the whole weekend she really was such a good girl at the wedding.

When we flew back the whole family was exhausted and poor Isabella got her first ear infection. That made for a very long week for her parents.

October also brought her first taste of Mac n Cheese and a beautiful rocking chair that was her tia's (aunt's) when she was little! She loves that chair and has since figured out how to climb in and out of it in the past few weeks (early December).

catch up - The Diner tee

Well, it has been awhile since I have posted anything and I swear I tried but the site was down when I tried to upload photos! Then here we are two months later and the holidays are next week!

Isabella has been a very busy girl, we shall start here with her sporting a t-shirt to promote Daddy's restaurant.
