Cuteness Overload! Isabel Recites the Alphabet

OMG - So our fabulous super duper camera proved its worth by showing off my dear daughter at her best. I had NO idea that she could recite the complete alphabet. I knew she could do segments but to actually have the attention span to sit there and do it was amazing. Well after all, we did just come off of a fun play date at our house where she wolfed down like 4 chocolate chip cookies. The energy was still there at 9pm, way past her bed time. Izzy absolutely adores her daddy and for like 30 minutes, her and Ben are in the kitchen having a conversation. I could watch this video a million times!!! Yes I'm a proud mama!

A New Big Girl Bed!

So based on how many times Izzy has fallen out of her toddler bed, we were finally convinced that maybe the bed was just too small for her after all. She sleeps in such weird positions and flips all over the place at night that eventually she ends up on the floor. We walked through Ikea a few weekends ago and found the perfect bed for her. It's actually a reversible bed that flips over and becomes a bunk bed so when Zoey gets older, they can share a room together.

The bed is actually navy but I had to customize it. I hand sewed the drapes and bought the canopy from Ikea. Isabel LOVES her bed. She plays in it and reads books in it too. I ended up buying her a new duvet set and a new goose down blanket too. She has not fallen out of her bed once since we've gotten it.

Last weekend we spent a day in San Leandro with our cousins and it was actually the first time we took both the girls out for the entire day. We had not planned on staying the entire day but ended up doing so which meant emergency run to the grocery store for formula and diapers!

Zoey makes the strangest faces! She constantly makes odd faces when she's awake. She has grown so much the last 6 weeks. We haven't weighed her yet but she's at least over 10 pounds now.
