Carrots, Carrots and more Carrots...

Yesterday, the doctor suggested we start trying to introduce foods to her one at a time. This helps since she is eating me alive at night. LOL... So we went on a field trip tonight to Wal-mart to get her some carrots. She did so good with them, in fact to good cause she had time to tell me about how I wasn't feeding her fast enough in between each bite. Oh how fun! F-Y-I...Carrots die the skin by the way!!!!!

New way of Sleeping

She has fallen in love with her fingers. We no longer have to carry a pacifier with us because it is attached to her hand. She has finally learned our to put her self to sleep...SO CUTE!!!

Watchin' every move we make

She could not taste it, however, she thought for sure she would get to...She even knew how to make the drinking movement/noise with her mouth. She has started doing this when we eat also. Listen closely...

Rollin' Over

She is becoming quit the pro at rolling over... so much so that she did it more than twice tonight and daddy got to witness all of them.

Her First Laugh with Mom

After bath time Isabella is always so happy. I got her on video as she laughed at her"first doll"... ENJOY!!! She has the cutest laugh I have ever heard!!!!!

Blanket

My mom's cousin made all the girls (Isabella, Addie and Ellia) blankets. We saw her this past Sunday. It was good to visit with her. Thank you Jenny for the blanket. She loves it.

Play Time

There is this play mat in her room that she loves to play on almost every night after her bath. She loves it... but when it first starts making noise she is not quite sure what to think... the first picture captures the face she makes when she starts playing.

Houston Trip

I know it was over a month ago, but it took a while for me to get these pictures. While in Houston, Isabella got to meet her Great Grandpa. We got some really good pics of everyone including the pics of when Carina put her play princess tiara on Izzy. SO CUTE!!!

Funny Face

I was trying to take a picture of us while looking in a mirror.... don't pay attention to the quality of the picture. However, look at the face that my precious angel daughter is making... pretty scary!!!

Bath Time

She absolutely loves bath time... she can be tired and screaming her head off and when I get her naked to take her bath she immediately perks up and starts laughing.

SO IT HAPPENED!!!!!

She finally did it!!! She rolled over last night... the cool thing is that she did it from tummy to back. Baby's usually do it from back to tummy first because they don't know how to get the arm under them to rollover when they're on their tummies.... I tried to get her to do it again while recording it, but of course she got tired of showing off. However, she did show ya'll another one of her favorite tricks that she does... very well I might say.... take a look at the video.

Nap Time is Over

She is always so happy when she wakes up no matter what time of day it is. This time I happen to catch her looking over the divider in her bed smiling at me when I walked in to check on her... yes she was awake playing so I grabbed the camera and took an opportunity to grab some cute pics.

Seeing the Stone's

For those of you who didn't know... I was a nanny for a family in Houston. I started babysitting Madison Stone when she was just a few weeks old here in Tulsa while her mom gave piano and voice lessons. A year later I ended up moving to Houston to nanny for them. I have a special bond with Madison sine then, one that will never be forgotten. This past Friday, I had a full circle moment in my life. I went to visit the Stone Family and introduce them to my precious angel. Madison was smitten... and so was her brother Caleb, who is 3 months older than Isabella. Who knows maybe Caleb will be my "son-in-law" one day... LOL Crystal and I are already planning.... LOL. Madison is now 7, her sister Sara is 4 and her brother Caleb is 6 months. Oh... their cousin, Chloe is also pictured in one of the pics,leaning against the couch, I babysat her and her sisters also when I moved back to Tulsa. I love this family, they are incredible.

Cereal Time!!!

Isabella started eating cereal last week. I managed to catch some of the "mess" on camera.

"OH WHAT YA GOT MOM?"

"AW, SOMETHING FOR ME TO BITE ON?"

"UM, SOMETHING IS ON MY TEETHING TOY!!!"

"MMMM... I THINK I'M GONNA LIKE THIS!"

RED DAY!!!

Today, daddy dressed her in red. We went out for lunch to Pei Wei... that was a big adventure... so we headed back home for a nap.

LOOK WHAT I JUST FOUND IN MY LAUNDRY!!!!

She is getting so big that I decided to start teaching her the process of "DOING LAUNDRY"... since it seems to never end around here these days. ENJOY!!!

3 Months!!!!

They say... "Time flies when your having fun." I have finally started believing that. These past few months have flown by. As I look back, it is hard for me to remember what Preston and I did with our time before our daughter entered the world. She has kept us on our toes. We love making her laugh and cuddling her when she cries. We look forward to waking up to her beautiful smile every day. I miss her at night after she goes to bed. If I had the energy, I would watch her sleep at night so I wouldn't miss her smiles and laughs as she dreams.

Figuring Out Her Hands

She is sitting up very well in her Bumbo seat.... so we have started doing that more and more every day. Today she started grabbing for the toys in front of her. Look closely towards the end and you will see a split second of it.... don't miss it... she's quick.

More Dedication Pics

My brother took these. AWESOME!!! Thanks Jeremy.
