So Big!

Isabella is 4 1/2 months old today!!!! She continues to amaze us everyday.
The past 2 weeks we have experienced a lot of 1st's:
1st tooth
1st time rolling over from her back to her tummmy
1st time standing on her own!!!!!
She blows lots of raspberries and gives ton of smiles. We often see her fingers in her mouth. Isabella is starting to scoot around on the floor so we will have a crawling baby before we know it. My baby is getting so big.

Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy

Isabella is all smiles these days despite having her 2nd ear infection. She squeals with delight in the bouncer she borrowed for her friends James & Molly.

Got Milk?

I knew before having a baby that all the toys would take up a ton of space but I never once considered my freezer would require room for a baby as well. We are not talking about a little bit of space, rather half of my freezer. It seems I have accumulated quite a bit of milk for Isabella. Altough, it makes storing frozen groceries a challenge its worth every inch it takes up. Tonight I decided to take inventory of my liquid gold stash....there was a whopping 236 ounces!!!! I dont think my little girl will ever go hungry.

Roll Over

Today Isabella rolled over from her back to her tummy!!!! She has been showing off her new trick all night. We are so proud of her and enjoy watching her grow.

Isabella's Christening

A little over 3 weeks ago Isabella was Christened. It was a very special day for our family. The service was held in Maryland in the church Will and I were married in. It was a very nice mass and sweet lil' Bell did so good. She even fell asleep in Daddy's arms during the service. Isabella wore a beautiful family gown that was 200 years old. It was special to have her in a gown with so much history. At the end of the service Mnsr. English blessed "Isabella's mother" and it brought tears to my eyes to finally be a mother and have this sweet child bless our lives. It was a perfect day.
