The day in sweats

Running away with the Minnie Mouse ears up after she ripped off the sunglasses.

Laughing and clapping, that's how we finish breakfast around here!

Waving to her adoring fans over scrambled eggs and potatoes with milk in the morning.


Clapping for the camera is a great way to start the day. She's always so happy in the mornings!



Yesterday we hit the zoo. Isa rode in the backpack and I hoofed it around and all we needed were jackets. Today we needed all out sweats because it was so cold in the house. Thankfully a little warmer weather is on the way.

I'm trying to hold out on dragging out the winter wardrobe until we move. That's right the posse is relocating! We're outta Webster and moving to Ballwin (for all you St. Louis folks). The closing date on the house is October 9 and we're all ready to go!

Isabel: post-church

Pointing at mom who is telling the baby to look at daddy for a picture. I truly used to despise people who did this, I thought it was annoying until it was my princess' pictures that needed taking.

She sat still long enough for me to do this to her hair this morning. It helped that she had grapes, milk, and Disney channel was running a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse marathon while I was braiding.


Hi Dad, I'm looking right at you after you and mom have managed to drive me crazy taking these pictures!


Mom, I don't want to play around the fountain, I'm busy with these stairs!

After Isa played in the nursery, and yes, I DO fix her up like this to go to church even though she plays in the nursery the whole time, we stopped by City Hall here in Webster to take some pictures. It has an awesome fountain in front that Isa loves. Usually I can't pry her away and yet this Sunday she just wanted to play on the front stairs and wave to the cars. Still cute none the less.

All dressed up

Welcome Friends!

Yesterday Isa wore an outfit we picked up at a garage sale before she was even born. It was so weird to think of my baby ever being big enough to fit into it, and yet here she is on the steps of church and in our backyard wearing a dress that she can't wear again because it will be too small by next week. Crazy!


Come on in!
I only look like I attended church, really I was playing in the nursery.

Taking a break, being beautiful can make a girl tired.

She has taken forever to start talking but now she talks all the time, if it isn't a real word, she'll make up something. Her most popular words are: shoes, kilk (milk), gakes (grapes), and kickey (mickey). This limited vocabulary does not in any way hinder her ability to make noise all the time though. Call up the house and see what I mean sometime.
