David Tami & Isa

8 MONTHS! ISA IS GETTING TO BE SUCH A LITTLE GIRL AND DEVELOP SUCH A CUTE LITTLE PERSONALITY MY NEW FAVORITE THING THAT SHE JUST STARTED DOING WAS GIVING KISSES, SHE DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO PUCKER BUT MORE OPEN WIDE AND SLOBBER AND SHE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT KISS MEANS BUT SHE KNOWS THAT IF I PUCKER MY LIPS UP AND GET HER ATTENTION THAT SHE IS SUPPOSED TO PUT HER SLOBBERY WIDE OPEN MOUTH ON MINE AND I LOVE IT. ISA ALSO OFFICIALLY BECAME A CRAWLER MEANING UP ON ALL FOURS AND COORDINATED ON MARCH 1, OF COURSE I WAS WORKING THAT DAY, EVER SINCE THE MOMENT SHE LEARNED HOW TO GO ON ALL FOURS SHE HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO GET UP ON HER FEET AND STAND, WHICH MEANS SHE HAS TAKEN SEVERAL FALLS BUT SHE STILL GOES. ISA STILL DECIDES WHETHER OR NOT SHE LIKES A TOY BY PUTTING IT IN HER MOUTH AND TESTING IT OUT FIRST, I KEEP THINKING SHE MUST BE TEETHING BUT STILL HAVENT SEEN ANYTHING YET, SO FAR SHE LOVES ALL THE BABY FOOD I HAVE MADE AND DOESN’T REFUSE ANYTHING HOWEVER SHE DOES GET PRETTY DISTRACTED WHEN SHE EATS SO IN ORDER TO GET HER TO DRINK A WHOLE BOTTLE WE HAVE TO LAY HER IN THE CRIB AND LET HER EAT ALONE OTHER WISE SHE SEEMS TO THINK SHE HAS BETTER THINGS TO DO. THE WEATHER STARTED TO GET A LITTLE WARMER AND SUNNIER OUT SIDE SO ISA GOT TO GO TO THE PARK AND SWING ON THE SWING FOR THE FIRST TIME AND SHE LOVED IT, SHE ALSO LOVES TO GO SIT IN THE GRASS WITH HER BARE FEET AND FEEL THE NEW TEXTURE IN HER TOES, AT FIRST SHE SEEMED IN AWE TO FINALLY BE OUTSIDE AFTER A LONG COLD WINTER AND SHE WOULD JUST SIT AND LOOK AROUND AND WATCH CARS GO BY AS IF SHE WAS IN A WHOLE NEW WORLD AND WAS JUST SOAKING IT ALL UP. MY LITTLE BABY IS WEARING 12 MONTH CLOTHING AND WEIGHS ABOUT 17 ½ POUNDS. SHE IS VERY STRONG, ENERGETIC, AND VERY SWEET. I STILL CANT IMAGINE HAVING ANOTHER BABY AS PERFECT AS SHE IS, SHE EATS WELL AND SLEEPS GREAT MOSTLY THROUGH THE NIGHT ONCE IN A WHILE WAKES UP FOR A BOTTLE, SHE LOVES TO PLAY IN HER CRIB AND DOESN’T CRY UNLESS SHE IS HUNGRY, TIRED, OR DIRTY. OTHER THAN THAT SHE IS HAPPY AS CAN BE PLAYING SOCCER WITH DADDY AND PEEKABOO WITH A BLANKET.
