Her is Isabel at Rachael's house last night. She is wearing her new swimsuit from her friend Sofia & Tommy. It is very cute on her. The girls filled up Rachael's pool with cold hose water and they were just loving it. As parents we were reminded of when we were young and didn't mind the freezing cold hose water. I told them stories of new garbage cans and cow water troughs that we turned into our "pools" for the day. My stories were met with "you were a country girl" comments. Us poor country kids didn't have access to nice big pools and we had to use our imaginations......

Her first corn on cob of the season. We had dinner with Rachael and her parents last night. Rachael and her mom made us a very delicious strawberry-rhubarb pie for dessert.

On Saturday, we (daddy, mommy & Isabel) went swimming and then we spent some time in the resprt basement hoping a tornado didn't hit us. It didn't. On Sunday, we went to church and then got some Little Caesars for lunch and then for dinner we had dinner with friends (see above.)

She thought pouring salt was fun. I didn't think it was so fun when she tried to pour it in mama's wine. Today we me our playgroup at Delafield Sports Commons park. Isabel went straight for the tallest, biggest slide right away. She had a good time, although was not very good about sharing her snacks with her friend Ben. We brought carrots, strawberries & cheddar bunnies crackers. She had not interest in the strawberries until Ben was enjoying them, then she started shoveling them into her mouth by the fistful. Isabel & Ben act like such brother & sister. He's always trying to touch her and she is always like "Mom, he touching me!'

One of Isabel's favorite things to do right now is play Hide & Seek. She only likes to be the seeker. She is sometimes a cheater, but when she isn't she loves to be scared (i.e. you jumping out yelling Boo!) She also got a couple new puzzles that she is enjoying. She loves doing puzzles.

Here is a video of her new swinging (sorry, it's sideways) and of her playing with Rachael last week. They are such silly girls together.

Tomorrow we have our first "Wee Wonders" Class at the Retzer Nature Center. We are all prepared to get wet & muddy (per description) with her rain boots & rain jacket. In the afternoon we have a playdate with some friends. On Wednesday we are going to a birthday playgroup. Thursday is a pretty relax day and Friday we have a park playgroup in the morning and will maybe have a friend over to swim in the afternoon. This weekend we are going to visit Grams & Gramps and are planning on going to the N.E.W. Zoo on Sunday (Father's Day) and Bay Beach on Monday.
