1st Dance Class

Isabella had her first Dance class last week and it went really well...once she started moving around. The first half was tap and it took her a little while to start jumping around, but once she did she loved it. She is doing it around the house now everyday and can't wait to go back. The second half of the class is ballet and she did well with that too. I am sorry that I did not get pictures of her doing her ballet, but Sam was not too happy at that time and I couldn't hold a camera.

Growing Boy

Sam is getting bigger by the day. He is now 7 weeks old and doing very well. He is starting to smile a little bit. There is a picture to fallow of him almost smiling..I didn't quite get the picture. Now that I have two little ones I really feel like a real mom. I am not saying that I wasn't one with just one child..it is just a lot different with two. Yesterday, I went to the outlet with both kids by myself and after more than two hours I realized that I left the car running (w/ ac on). Neadless to say I was a little worried my car wouldn't be there or it would be out of gas. Neither was the case. We are thanking God on the way home (A LOT)!!
Things have changed a lot with our home and life. It is (mostly) all wonderful.
Here are some pics from the last few weeks.


This is Isabella and her friend Harkins.

2 Months!

Sorry to have taken so long to post pictures. I am having a hard time getting up the motivation to do a post. The last two months have gone really fast. Here are some pics from before Sam was born.

FINALLY!!!

Well, as you may know we have been having problems with our computer. Matt finally got it working better and I finally sat down to download pics for your enjoyment. So...without further ado: Enjoy!!

SNOW, SNOW, SNOW (atleast enough to sled on). Pay close attention to what we used for a sled. It was a good idea by my hubby...it worked really well for our little peanut.










so, I was trying to put more pics up and it is not letting me. This is irritating and I hope that it will work later. I have her bday pics all ready to go. Come back soon and hopefully it will work.

Happy 3rd Birthday!!

It was Isabella's bday on Wednesday. I can not believe she is three already. She is turning into such a big girl. We are so thankful that God gave her to us..it is amazing to think about it. It is so neat to see her personality forming..she is so concerned for others and if something happens to them. She is also taking after her mother b/c she is always wanting to be apart of the fun and is not happy when we have to leave her friends. She thrives on interacting with others.
Here are some pictures from our little party yesterday. We took some of her friends bowling and I made a cake. We had a good time and Isabella loves bowling.

I am sorry to say that right now I can't post any pictures b/c I am having a hard time downloading them. I will hopefully have it solved within a day or two. So come back soon!

Pics in the Snow!!

This was our "big" snow of the month and hopefully the only one of the season. It was a lot of fun seeing Isabella out there playing and discovering snow for the first time. She enjoyed just running in it.
