Daddy and Isabel
Rough day-a paci and not one but two Pippys

Tummy time=rest time

Crying
Pouty (she is working hard at perfecting this-this face tugs at daddy's heart)


Another attempt-both of them were watching TV

One Month, One Day

Day One
Just shy of 4 weeks old
Isabel celebrated her one month birthday yesterday.
8pounds, 9 ounces, 20 inches long
I went back thru the pictures we have taken over the last month and I really don't have many of her and not much by way of video either. I will try and do better but with two it is proving to be a bit difficult. Thankfully we have seen Aunt Sarah and she has gotten some great pics starting with her birth pictures (the pictures above were taken by her).
The last month has flown by- Isabel is now one month, one day old and Caleb is one day shy of being one month from his 2nd birthday. I can't believe how fast my babies are growing. Some days I wish I could just freeze them so that they would always be this little.
Caleb is still being a great big brother and loves to give his sister love. His vocabulary is picking up and he is showing his desire for independence. He starts school again on his birthday and I can't wait to see how he blossoms this year. Caleb still loves books and a day without going outside is torture for him (picking up sticks, swinging, driving in his Cozy Coupe, and pushing his wagon are his favorite things to do).
Isabel is just loving to be held and already has her daddy wrapped around her little finger! She has already rolled over from her stomach to her back (at 9 days old) and has good head control and strong little legs. She has started to be awake more now during the day and just takes in her surroundings. Like her brother, she loves her baths. We love having her as part of our family. I am trying to savor all these moments (wishing I had more on tape and pics to look back on) for I know just like Caleb she will be doing for herself before too long. I will try to keep you posted on our growing little Choes.
