Did you find a friend?? :)

Beautiful girl......

An afternoon at the mall with my sweet girl! :) Daddy and Blake went to the movie and you browsed the mall with Mama.  We have a good time together!  During a diaper change in the bathroom, you found the cutest little friend in the mirror!  You giggled and squealed and talked to the baby in the mirror, it was very cute! :)

You are so much fun!!! :) ~A funny girl you certainly are~!! 

Backyard Adventures... :)

We have really enjoyed our new big backyard!  We spend lots of time out there watching you and Blake play.  This day like so many others, you toodle around the yard, peek through the fence looking for John and Brady and pull flowers from your playhouse flower boxes! You are so funny to watch!

Loving the great state of Texas! :)

"Where are you Brady??"

Sweet angel you are....

"Daddy do you want a flower?"

You are so pleasant Isabella Grace.... You love to sit on the porch swing, talk to Bella dog, watch Blake and Daddy play football and drink your juice :)  We love, love, love you!!!

Our precious angel.....
16 months old

~ Isabella Grace ~

Love for your Bella dog...

When we named you Isabella, we thought one day you would get a kick out of the fact you have a fuzzy little friend named "Bella" :) Bella is a Shih Tzu. She is the sweetest puppy dog ever! She's much older than you, she's been around long before you and Blake were born. She is Mama's baby!

Every chance you get, you're loving on Bella.  She's pretty good about being patient with you, except for the times you pull her tail.... Mama's two Bella girls, I love you so much!! You're both very special!

Your brother really loves you! :)

Isabella Grace, what a lucky, lucky little girl you are to have a big brother like Blake! He is 8 years older than you, he will always be your protector, your friend and your hero! He loves his baby sister so much, he is so happy you are here!!

Blake is so happy to hold you and cuddle!

The light of my life! :)

Who's the baby here?

Oh Isabella, you're so funny!  Mama found this baby bed for your baby dolls...But, you've decided YOU like to sit in it and play with your dolls! ha ha! :)  So cute!!

So much for the baby dolls!  Now you're watching TV from your baby bed!

Every day you bring so much joy to all of us!  Something new, something funny!  You are full of life and love :)

Blake loves to golf!

Your big brother Blake has been playing golf since he was about 3 years old :)  He enjoys it and Daddy has really taught him a lot! 

Blake really knows how to hit the ball and most times it goes right down the middle of the fairway!  You and Mama like to go out with them on occasion and watch :) 

 Aren't you proud of your awesome big brother?

Mess maker.....

Look at this little mess maker!  ha ha!  You love to dig to the bottom of your toy bucket and put everything out on the floor, maybe you're hoping to find a *surprise*!!  :)  You love your toys, little girl, and keep yourself busy!  You're such a good girl :)

Oh you love your baby dolls! :)

"HI Mama!!"

Time to say "Goodbye"....

On November 2, Patsy and Herman were flying home after a great few days with us!  We enjoyed them so much and were happy they were here!  Oh, Isabella how you *LOVE* your Uncle Herman!!  You give him lots of hugs, play games with him and untie his shoes!  ha ha! It is so funny to watch you as you make him laugh!

You untied, he tied, you untied, he tied.... And then laughed and laughed!

On this day, after a nice lunch, we had to say "Goodbye".... Sad to see them leave but so happy they came to see us and have a fun, fun visit!!

LOVE!!  Didn't want to say "Goodbye"....

Horse Carriage ride in Downtown Dallas!

The end of October, your Great Aunt Patsy and Great Uncle Herman flew in to see us for a few days.  We had a great time with their visit and did some fun things :) On this evening, we treated them to a fantastic horse carriage ride around Downtown Dallas. They really liked it, we saw pretty lights and enjoyed our time together!

It was a little cold, we bundled up and cuddled, it was great fun!!

Big brother Blake rode up front!!
