bff.

Nothing sweeter than watching your daughter play with her best friend. 

A few weeks ago my bestie, Erin, and her precious family came for a visit.  We had the best time; it was so nice and relaxing to have our friends here for a visit.  Being in Dallas away from family and friends we cherish having visitors!

monthsandmonths.

Although not back on a regular basis I thought I would drop in to update the world on all things that have happened since 6ish months ago:
1) baby #2 is being created at this very moment.  yep, preggers again and finally starting to feel significantly better (at week 20) and started to feel that little girl booger move around (16.5 weeks) (I include the weeks so I can reference this for future babies).  And nope, no name in sight.  And, nope Ibelle has no understanding that I am pregnant. 

2) Ibelle is a big girl!  She is def assertive and persistent.  Or maybe she just knows her mom is a push over.  Funny the other day dyer put her in time out; in an effort to keep-her-there he kept placing her back in time out.  She said "no push" in the most serious way, it was really funny.  She likes just about all fruit and most foods.  Bribing works: "oh, if you want a straw you better eat your PB sandwich", "want to play outside?  pick up your toys."  She still sits on the potty at night before bath and generally goes.  She even saw Rowdy potty outside (the gross kind) and she has since done that a time or two while playing with "aqua" naked.  She started ballet, she is doing much better than she was in the beginning.  I will have to add some pICHs in her ballet shoes.  Also, she loves to sing - mostly twinkle, twinkle and no more monkeys jumping on the bed.  She is not into shows, although some mornings I wish she were!

3)  Dyer is just being the best hubby a pregger wife and stinker daughter could ask for.  In fact he has the Pedi-boards on Monday.  Thoughts and prayers welcome :)

4) I turned 30.  I got a fancy pair of shoes, PERFECT for a 30th b-day!

5) I visited AZ.  My bestie, Erin, and her hubby Chris met Dyer and I in AZ for a fun filled few days.  We did lots of outdoor stuff.  Horse back riding, hiking, kayaking, laying out by the pool, the gamete.  It was definitely the best vacation ever.  And what better people to spend it with?!?

6) I'm an aunt again!  Michelle and Ross welcomed little nugget Michael William into the world on Sept 30.

7) Decluttered my worrying brain!

8) Garner graduated!

(eat Yogurt!!)


(throw July 4th fits.)
(that is her yogurt-eating-stool. She sits on it for yogurt time.)

Adios.

Life is busy at the moment

So long little blog, we will be parting.. When the days become longer than 24 hours we will meet again.






{I couldn't resist a little pICH sussy!}

stickerwicker.

Isabelle got some stickers with the egg coloring kit we bought*.  She LOVES them.  It was a whole sheet of teeny-tiny stickers!  Think: the little PAAS brand charaters.  She has had the stickers everwhere, on her arms, her forehead, her clothes, our clothes and stuck to the floor.  Who knew they would be such a hit! 


*Easter pt 3 post is pending me finding the pics of Ibelle and her dad coloring eggs, they are currently mia.  boo.
(Erin: do you notice the night jammies and xmas bow??)

:)

pay = play.

Isabelle loves to pay (play!). The other day Dyer and his dad picked up some sidewalk chalk - she was all about it. Sort of. She played and colored but mostly she was more interested in opening the packages of chalk. Funny, I had used a stick to open the cellophane on the chalk and little-mini found the same tiny stick and tried to open the other chalk rows! Too cute!
One of her little friends was outside too; when we asked Isabelle to share her chalk she was less than willing! So funny to watch little ones interact!!

gymnastics and a b-day!

Last weekend Isabelle went to a birthday party for her friend Kaitlyn (Happy 4th Birthday Kaitlyn!!!).  The party was so fun!  It was at a gymnastics place and the kids had a blast!  There was an obstacle course and trampolines.  Isabelle had such a good time (and I think that she secretly felt like she was part of the big kids group!).  She was so thrilled for the trampoline; she went straight to the girl that was coaching the kids and held her hands while they 'jumped' together (really Isabelle is still a little too young to understand jumping, but she loved it!).  There was a fun obstacle course with all foam pit at the end.  Isabelle loved all the different challenges, except the foam pit!  I think that it was too hard for her to walk around in, which got her a little scared.
After the games were over all the kiddos had pizza and Capri Suns!  (You can take a guess how the Capri Sun went, and if you are thinking something about her squeezing the packet and juice squirting out you'd be right!).


 her sweet little slightly-pigeoned-toed feet-sies.


pizza time!!  her fav is "pissa"!!



food!

eating now:

eating one year ago:

I can not believe this was my little bitty nugget just 12 short months ago!!  My how she has grown!!
She is really not all that interested in food.  Most nights we are lucky to get some turkey lunch meat and a cheese stick in her; or a Yo Baby and a piece of bread!  For the most part she is always hungry (or really, Thirsty!!, she has her words confused!) and will drink milk really well!  Often times she will continue to say thirsty any time she sees any one's cup and like to drink from an open cup (vs sippy cup).  She calls all crackers/pretzels/nilla wafers "cookies" and she loves craisins!

She is such a big girl and I can't wait to see what the next year brings!!

pick.

Do you need a pick me up??

She is so funny, most times
when I ask her to point to her nose she does like this:




Gosh, this girl is awesome
{if i haven't already stated that a million times}
the best part about her
{other than the way she snuggles and makes my heart huge}
is the way that she lights up my day!

{ignore the stickers on her forehead and dried fruit on her cheek and crazy bow on her head.}

Easter pt 2.

After the family Dyer left came the family Desiree.  We had the BEST time with Garner and my mom!  It was the most wonderful weather!!  Huge Thanks to the Easter Bunny (who took Ibelle's basket to Grandma's house!) for some very fun Easter goodies!  Isabelle got some movies, playdoh, bubbles and lots of LOVE!  Gma was so sweet to bring a stroller - which has been a BIG hit!  (and thanks to G for going to TRU for 2 hours while Gma shopped!)  We can't wait for a return visit!
