Water Toys!

We finally had a break in the weather and was able to spend some time in the backyard. Friday after work I picked up a water table for Izzy because I knew how much she loved playing with water.

She had no problem with how cold the water was and spent the time doing her best to empty her table of water.

Tupperware makes the best toys.

Izzy's Gap ad. I think her entire outfit came from the Gap. This is the reason why I can't stop buying her clothes. She's way too cute in anything I put her in.

Learning is Messy!

Isabel is at the age where she has to feed herself. She's growing more and more independent everyday. Here are some pictures of her "freedom". ABC pasta landed in her hair...

I didn't realize that chocoloate pudding could be so disastrous...

But yes... someone thoroughly enjoyed herself!

Wolverine Went to a Birthday Party

Isabel was invited to her second birthday party (first one was Lexy's 2nd birthday) and this one had a theme - Superheroes! Since there aren't really any great female superheroes I could think of, I went back to the day Auntie Cindy did her hair for crazy hair day and used that as my idea for Wolverine. She made the PERFECT little Wolverine! I hand sewed her costume (no sewing machine!) and spend less than $10 on materials. It took awhile but it was so worth it. The costume fit her perfectly!

Wolverine did not want to go into the bouncer for the first hour but of course once mommy was inside, she had a blast! Daddy then threw her into the ball pit which freaked her out.

Wolverine is eyeing an Elmo balloon....

Did I mention that she did win best costume for girls? Yay! Thanks to Gavin for having a birthday party, it was so much fun!

Banana phone

Ever since Isabel has had an obsession with cell phones or phones in general, everything has become a phone! She'll hold up everything from remote controls to bananas and think she's talking on the phone.

Isabel is turning 1.5 years old on Sunday. How quickly time flies! I can't believe that baby #2 will be here before she turns 2.

Pregnancy update: I'm getting bigger and it's true what they say that the 2nd time around your body "remembers" and it just gets bigger faster. I feel much bigger than I was last time. I'm not heavier, just bigger! My clothes are definitely not fitting right now and it sucks! I don't want to buy and maternity clothing. I found my maternity clothes from the first pregnancy and I couldn't be more appalled at my fashion choices. Some of those pants from the Gap are just ridiculously large. I'm sticking to loose tops and two pairs of my favorite Sevens and those will be what I'll be living in. Maternity clothes are just so awful. What I learned, just buy a couple pairs of really nice jeans at a Pea and a Pod and spend the rest at Forever 21 with some cheap tops.
