On the Go!

So, Tuesday was a really big day for Isabella. She decided she was going to learn how to sit up by herself & take her first few crawling steps. She's been working on both of these goals for a while now. For the past several weeks she has been a rocker...on her hands & knees that is. We knew it was only a matter of time before she would be crawling. So, we've just been sitting back, watching and waiting. She hasn't completely mastered the crawling, but she's getting pretty close. After her first couple of "steps" with her hands & knees, if she still hasn't reached whatever object she is going for, she takes a big lunge forward. She's become quite the leaper. It's so much fun to see her discovering her new abilities. The best reward is when she looks up at us & gives us a big smile as if she's saying, "Daddy, Mommy...look what I just did!"

Lovely Locks

I am posting this for the simple fact that Amy thought Isabella's hair was hilarious the other morning when she woke up & she insisted that I take a picture. So, here it is for all of you that heard about it. As you can see, Isabella doesn't really know what all the fuss was about. :)

After bath time the other night I decided to put Isabella's hair up in her first pony tail. It is getting sooo long!

Visiting the Altons

Kristal, Abby & Mike
This past weekend we went to visit our friends, Mike & Kristal in Keller. Our good friend, Erin, only lives about 5 minutes away from them & the Brewers made the trip as well. All five of them were Resident Advisors with me at A&M. So, it was a great weekend for us to catch up with some of our old RA buddies. We had such a wonderful time getting to hang out with everyone!
