Summer

Nick isn't home very often when Isabella is awake and so there isn't usually anyone to take pictures of us playing together. Today we ran some errands and Belle was kinda cranky when we put her in the car to go home so I promised her we would play outside when we got home. I don't know if she remembers promises yet, but I didn't want to break it. So we played. It was just for about half an hour, but it was fun. Someone finally mowed our front lawn today and so we introduced Belle to the tree she says hello to through our window.

I like this picture of the three of us. Nick snapped it and said "now I know you're not going to like it, but please don't delete it." It's true that I don't find it incredibly flattering, but I'm pregnant, so it's not like it should make me feel fat. It will be a good memory I'm sure.

It still surprises me how mobile Isabella is. I mean she's not even two yet and she was practically running down the sidewalk!. We shot a cute video of her climbing the stairs, her latest achievement of which she is quite proud, (as are we), but for some reason it's on it's side and I'm not sure how to flip it, I'll have to work on figuring that out. We wandered around our neighborhood for a bit and then Isabella was ready to go inside so she grabbed my hand and walked us to the door. A good fun time of play. I can hardly wait until we have a house full of children all playing together!
