Memorial Day weekend


We had a great Memorial Day weekend. Sims celebrated his 2nd birthday at the NC zoo. It was so much fun and Isla enjoyed watching him open all his gifts. The animals were pretty cool too! We also have a picture of Rhonda with one of our zoo animals-Jackson!

Isla's first beach trip


We decided to go to the beach for the weekend to celebrate Alex's birthday. It was also Isla's first beach trip. She loves the water! I'm certain she will love the beach when she gets older. The sun is just to bright for her now. She did enjoy her new bathing suit.

Isla being Isla!!

Sorry I'm a little late posting her 6 month stats:
weight: 16lbs 4oz (50th%)
height: 25 3/4 inches (60th%)
head: I can't recall, but in the 90th%
She did great at her checkup and everything looks great! We don't go back to the pediatrician until 9 months-yay.
Isla is a very happy baby and smiles nonstop.
She has added so much joy to this house!

First Mother's Day


I had a great mother's Day! I spent the day with my wonderful husband and daughter. It was a relaxing day. I'm so thankful for the two of them. I feel so loved and appreciated!

Look at this sweet face!

We also started eating green peas this weekend and this is the face we got!

Easter and eating solids?!


Isla's rice cereal face!

We started solids easter sunday because Isla seemed to be ready. She loved it! It was a bit messy. After breakfast, we went over to Jason and Maggie's for Easter to celebrate. We also got to see Rhonda and Smith. It was a nice get together and the food was awesome. We also hunted easter eggs with Sims. Next year Isla can hunt eggs!

Five months


It's getting harder and harder to get this little girl to stay still for her photos! She is on the move. Isla is now rolling over front to back and back to front. She will be crawling soon. She rolls all over the place! She definitely knows her parents and loves to smile. She now laughs and smiles at everyone. Isla continues to go to "school" 3 days a week. She has a great personality and it shows more and more each day. I'm not sure about her height and weight, but her 6 month appointment is next month.

Isla just chillin' in her chair!

Here is Isla's 4 month photo. Sorry it's a little late. It's getting a little difficult to get her to be still!

My sweet little girl! She is growing so fast.

4 Months

This pretty much sums up the day after our 4 month checkup with shots!
Isla's stats:
weight: 14lbs 5 oz (74%)
height: 24 1/2 inches (55%)
head circumference: 16 3/4 inches (80%)

The Doctor said everything looks great and that she has a large brain(haha).She did get her shots and had a fever the next day. This was not fun. She was still playing and smiling throughout the night. Isla will now smile at everyone, but especially at mom and dad. She has more control of her neck and loves to sit in the bumbo chair.
She loves playing on her mat and she can turn over from her tummy to back. She can almost make it the other way, she just can't get over that arm! She loves it when you talk to her and she is constantly trying to talk back. She loves to see herself in the mirror. She also loves to go for walks.
Can you tell that she loves to be naked!
She is a baby during the day, but at night she is known as"bat girl".
