Fun In The Tub and 1st Visit To The Airport


We wanted to show you Isabella's new bathtub! She loves to take a bath. As you can see, she just loves to lounge there. She very rarely cries!
Isabella went to the airport for the first time to visit Aunt Jan and Uncle Mark during their layover. We had a good time visiting and eating some dinner together. She has seen all of her Illinois aunts and uncles in the first 2 months of her life! She is patiently waiting to meet Grandma and Grandpa Hohulin at Christmas time!

2 Month Check-up

Yesterday Isabella had her 2 month check-up with the doctor. Unfortunately, it was also the day she received her first immunizations. She now weighs 7 pounds 11 ounces and is 21 inches! She is growing, yah!! The doctor is very impressed with her gain and said she is the cutest baby. With that said, Isabella had her first modeling "gig" yesterday too. She will be in their new broucher for their office! Now, Aunt Beth says I should get her into modeling. I don't think I will do that, but it is fun to say she is already in pictures.

Isabella did really well with the shots. She only cried hard for about 30 seconds, and then she was asleep. In the evening she was kind of fussy and ended up having a fever, but she seems better this morning.

Sorry, I don't have a picture to post today. I will get one up soon!

Smile For The Camera


I know that this entry has Isabella in the same outfit....but there is one difference. She SMILED for the camera for the first time! It is also the first time that Isabella smiled for her Dad too. This was week 2 of the CU football season, and since CU won last week, we have to dress her in the same outfit. It is a good luck thing, according to Anthony. Luckily, CU won today, barely. I'm not biased or anything, but she sure is cute isn't she?!

Go CU BUFFS!





Last weekend was the first CU football game of the season. (They won of course!) It was also the first game for Isabella. She didn't get to go to the game, grandpa Ron babysat her, but she had to cheer them on! Her Dad wanted her to be in the spirit, so we bought her a little outfit to wear for the games this year.




We are all doing well! Isabella and I are sad for summer to end, but we are looking forward to Christmas when we will go visit everyone in Peoria! Next week Isabella has her 2 month check-up. Yes, that means shots! Can you believe she is already almost 2 months old? Now, if she would only sleep a little longer at night....

My how Isabella has grown




Isabella is now 6 weeks old and she is growing like a weed. We aren't sure of her exact weight, but she is probably close to weighing 7 pounds! We are all continuing to do well. Jill and Isabella are not looking forward to summers end. They both enjoy their walks everyday around the neighborhood. The picture attached is the most recent. (It actually looks like she is smiling for it!)

1 Month Old




Today Isabella is 4 weeks old! Wow how time flies right? We went to the doctor on Thursday for a weight check. Can you believe little Isabella is now weighing in at 5 lbs 14 oz!!! She gain 1 pound in 2 weeks! I guess that means I am doing my job right with her feedings. Isabella is continuing to do well. We still have some nightly struggles with bedtime, but nothing horrible to speak of. It is hard to believe she is already 4 weeks old. I know someday we will look back to this time, and think that it was forever ago that she was this small. We are enjoying everyday with her and are so glad to have her in our lives. We had fun doing another little photo shoot today with the help of Aunt Diane and Hannah. Thanks to them for helping out this week!!!
