Our days are filled with.....

I will start off by showing you what our house was like last weekend with the start of March Madness. So, our days & night's were filled with basketball.....thanks to DIRECTV!




Now, on to cuter things......

Since Mother Nature can't make her mind about Spring, we are spending our days snacking, making messes, cleaning up messes, you get the picture. Now, if our days were consistantly warm and sunny, we would definitely be playing outside with bubbles or going on walks or go to the park. In the mean time, Isabella gets to have all of the fun, while me (mommy) gets to go behind her and clean-up. So is the life of a toddler.....

Enjoying her snack in the middle of the kitchen floor.


She has decided to help clean out our pantry. Notice her poor little puppy has been buried alive!
She did put a couple of things back when I asked her to help clean up. :)

I Scream For Ice Cream

It was an exciting week! Isabella went for her weight check at the doctor this week. She gained 10oz in 6 weeks! That is pretty good, since in 3 months before, she had only gained a pound. The doctor was pleased and told us to keep on doing what we are doing. The nice thing is, is that Isabella has started eating more at one meal. She is loving hot dogs, chicken nuggets, grilled cheese, pancakes and of course, cookies, cake or ice cream! We do throw in fruits and some veggies in there too....do not worry. A funny thing about ice cream though.....(Grandpa Vern would be proud).....she LOVES ice cream time in the evenings. When you tell her that we are getting some for her to eat she literally screams a high pitched scream!

It has also been fun to hear some of the new words she is trying to say almost everyday! She has become clear with book, apple, Elmo, Abby (both of those are on Sesame Street), milk, up, read, more, please, bath, bubble and hot.

As far as our other little Martini, it is continuing to grow as expected. We will find out if it is a boy or girl a month from today. So, we will update you all at that time!
