Big Balloons

The other morning we were upstairs watching Mickey Mouse Club House and Isabella started shouting, "Balloon, Balloon!" I didn't think much of it, but then I glanced out our window. Two hot air balloons were coming up out of the trees and heading straight for our house. We ran and put our shoes on and ran outside. Izzy kept yelling, "Hi balloon!," up towards the sky. They floated right over us and you could hear the people inside saying hi back. We watched them until they were out of sight.


I am so grateful to have the spontaneous delight of a child in my home. It is so fun to discover the amazing world through her eyes. I love the she gets excited to see a bus or a pumpkin and that she tells me every single time. I am thankful for the opportunity to share her world every day!

Hold on Tight, Cause Here We Gooooo...

We celebrated Isabella's 2nd birthday this weekend. Her actual birthday is Wednesday, but was easier to do the whole celebration on Saturday.

Izzy really loves Little Einstiens. We are sure to watch it every day. I was determined to make her a "Rocket" Cake for her b-day. I did a search on the internet and discovered it was doable, even with my non-cake decorating skills. It turned out really cute and Izzy knew who it was right away. Yeah, I'm really, really proud of it.

Summer's Over??

Our weather has been so nice this week! It's much drier and the high today is suppose to be 72 degrees or something like that. I love the fall! I love waking up to a house that's 68 degrees and the fact that my air conditioner doesn't turn on. Don't worry, it's suppose get back into the 80's again this weekend. Yeah, I'm a little disappointed.

Anyway, here are a few picts left over from Izzy this summer. They are a little old (pre-potty training), but very cute. On a side note, Izzy is doing great with her potty training. We did have one accident last night, but that was the first one all week. We went shopping today and she went potty in the restroom twice! I'm so proud of her. She is still in diapers for sleeping. I'm just not ready to deal with that yet, but other than that she is doing great.

Watering the plants and daddy's tree. She loves pointing up to the sky.

Playing with sidewalk chalk has become one of our favorite out door activities. She like to keep all the colors for herself
