First time for everything


Lats night Isabelle FINALLY slept through the night!! I am very happy and impressed with her! Makes my life much easier and a lot happier!! Now, I just hope she continues to do it!! I'll take less naps if it means she sleeps ALL night long!!

Today will be a lazy day. It's much cooler out than it was yesterday!! For that I'm happy, and it's over cast which I like a little better when i take her to the park! Which I do plan on doing today too. This girl could swing all day if she wanted to!

She's doing well. I'm doing well and so is Daddy!!! Happy weekend!

Unexpected Dr. Visit

Well today we had our first experience with a not planned doctors visit for Izzy. She out of nowhere broke out in a rash on her back. We noticed it somewhat once a few weeks ago but it wasn't like it was today. She had little bumps all over and this time they were actually raised above her skin, so mom and I took her to a walk in clinic since it was after 430 p.m. and her doctor was too far away to make it! So, long story short, she was fine. It's some sort of contact dermatitis. That means it's something she's coming in contact with that is causing it. Nothing bad, not painful, we just have the fun part of figuring it out. The Dr. said it could be as simple as her being in her new clothes that haven't been washed yet. The simple solution to that, he suggested, is to just run water over them! haha-who would have thought! We also had her ears looked at as well, only due to the fact that she's been fussy lately, but they were totally clear!! :o) Our baby is almost 16 lbs now though!!! Holy cow! :o) HAHA I guess she only gets the best!! Well until next time!

Teething....I think So


So the past few days Isabelle has been rather moody and gets really mad when she gets rolled over from her back to her tummy. She is able to roll back over, but she gets her arms flat out in front of her and starts to bury her face into the floor and screams. It's kind of funny, but we roll her back over and what does the stinker do....rolls right back to where she was. Once she gets it figured out that she is able to roll over and over and over, she won't get so mad.

We think she's teething now as well. She's been REALLY, really drooly, and grumpy. She hardly napped at all yesterday (Monday), and just isn't really wanting to be put down when being held either. She did better today. I got her to sleep finally and put her in her new swing that my mom bought her yesterday (at a consignment shop-$25 bucks!!) and she slept for 2 hours!! It was awesome!!

We also have been working to get her out of her swaddle at night, because she's starting to break out of it and rolls over when she gets out and then screams! haha. so we starting with naps and its a long process. She is pretty much done sleeping with her boppy at night and being flat on her back. So that's also progress too!! It just takes a lot of time getting her used to new things and transitioning and I'm selfish and LOVE my sleep when I get it. The little booger STILL isn't sleeping all night long. I'm beginning to think she NEVER will! She usually sleeps for five hours (but by the time I get to bed it's usually three for me) then is up two-three times after that!! My nights are NEVER long enough anymore!!

It's been raining ALL day today and is supposed to again tomorrow. Mom has a job interview in the morning and after that we're going to walk around the mall and eat lunch there. Just stuff to do inside since it's yucky out!!

Oh and one more thing, Izzy has found her feet too this past week!! Its so funny, she LOVES grabbing them!!! :o) She has yet to get them in her mouth yet though!! lol

She's A Rolling


Well it's official, our baby girl is rolling over now. she's getting so big! She really started going yesterday and today she's been unstoppable!! she still can't go both ways, but I bet in a day or two she will have it down pat! she's really working hard at it!!

tomorrow is saturday and we're going to walk to the library to a book sale they're having. also, our east here they call garage sales "tag sales" so mom and I plan to check a few of those out. then in the afternoon we're going to go w/ our neighbor to her sons t-ball game. He is IN LOVE with ryan too. it's so cute, he always wants to play with him and hugs him goodbye! Adorable!! haha

Well I'm a tired momma, so it's off to bed for the night for me!!
