Friday at Home

We just went to the local park. There was a little boy named Isaiah who took a fond interest in Isabel and kept trying to interact with her. He's in the last bottom picture (in the 9 picture block). His grandma took the picture for us.

Isabel was being super silly on the swing. She likes to reach out to me and have be grab her arms.

A couple of things she started doing in the last couple weeks is ringing doorbells and pulling the chain to turn th light on/off on her ceiling fan in her room (with mom proping her up there, of course.)

If you click on the picture, you can see the images larger. Her favorite slide was the tallest, twisty tube slide. So, of cours mom has to follow right behind and go down with her. It's a fast slide and is a lot of fun. We wore ourselves out there this afternoon.

When she was done, she climbed down the stairs to me and pointed to the car. I picked her up and she put her head on my shoulder and we left. She went down for a nap right when we got home.

She took a nice hour nap this morning. My friend Linda came to babysit (w/ her daughter & daughter's friend) while I went to a dr. appt. She did great with them. I don't even think she realized I was gone whenshe woke up because she saw the big girls there and wanted to watch & play with them.

This was before we left for the park and she was being silly. Her newest word in the last few weeks is "Arr", as in Larry. She can't quite do the l or y yet, but she only sayd it to him or when she wants him to come to her (like when she takes a bath, he always comes into the bathroom and sits while she takes a bath and she gives him a dish of tubwater, which he drinks.)

We have another showing of thehouse on Sunday, late morning. So, hopefully the weather holds out and we can go to the fair during that time. Otherwise we might not get to the fair (it's supposed to rain all day tomorrow.)
