Isla Overview 2012


I feel that I am leaving out updates on my first born who is the most beautiful, smart, sassy whippersnapper daughter in the whole world! Isla cracks me up each and every day. Of course there are also times every day that I want to scream and lay down and kick my legs just like her because she can be so stubborn and frustrating but overall she is so loving and really hilarious!
Some recent Isla firsts!
- First time sitting though mass without us having to bring her out of the worship area (Christmas Eve)
- First swimming lessons (with Mr. Greg at Foss)
- First drawing faces and attempting to write her name (she spells it ESLA no matter how many times you tell her ISLA)
- First time peeing and pooping in the potty all by herself without even being reminded (Dec. 2012)
- First time coloring in the lines (almost!)
- First microphone (she could sing and dance to Gagnam Style a million times and not get sick of it!!!)
- First babysitting job (it is so nice to be in the kitchen and know that Isla will tell me if Avery is getting into something she shouldn't)
- First time singing on a stage (Step by Step Holiday Program)
- First Elf at our house (Isla named her elf on the shelf Louie)
- First imaginary friends (Ricey and Lettler...don't ask)
- First time sleeping in big girl bed (oh my this took a long time...for one month 1/29 to 2/24/12 I kept a sleep journal in my phone about her progress....possibly one of the most stressful times of my life, granted I was 8 months pregnant)
- First Christmas in our REAL house!!!!
- First time being a BIG SISTER!!!!
