Mom's Group

We had mom's group at the park yesterday. It was a beautiful day out and we all enjoyed just sitting around and soaking up the sun.

We have beautiful weeds

Isabel loves to go outside and pick the flowers. Dandelions are her favorite but there are not too many of them left right now, so she goes for these purple flower things we have.

Laundry

Isabel loves to help me sort laundry. She sits in front of the laundry pile and just pulls the clothes all around her, some on the left, some on the right, some right on her lap.

Cute Stuff

Isabel and I have just been hanging out. She really likes to read me her books these days, pointing at the pictures and telling me all about them. I know I'm a little biased, but I think she is super cute these days.

Big Girl

Isabel had her twelve month doctor's appointment today. She is well and happy and didn't even scream too much about her shots. She had a great time playing with the paper that they lay down and hardly noticed the doctor. Her stats were:

Length: 28 1/2 inches, 40th percentile
Weight: 17 lb, 15.5 oz, 8th percentile (much improved over last visit)

We do have to go visit a pediatric orthopedist because she is not crawling or sitting herself up or anything, but hopefully that won't be a big deal because although she isn't doing those things it sure seems like she could if she wanted to.

First Birthday

Isabel is one year old today! What an exciting day we have had!

This morning she played with her toys while mommy and daddy cleaned the house.

We had lots of friends over for cake and a party, yum-yum.

Opening presents was lots of fun.

We took Isabel on a walk around the neighborhood since this is her absolute favorite activity.

Windy Days

Spring is in the air, which means that it is starting to get really, really windy. But that doesn't phase Isabel, she still wants to get into her stroller and take a walk. She's a bit obsessed with her stroller right now and is actually pretty happy if I just strap her in and we just sit in the front entry-way for ten minutes.
