Happy Birthday Isabel!

Wow, this year has just flown by. I can't believe my baby is one years old! We are so blessed to have her in our family. She is such a character. She makes the silliest faces. She just loves her daddy (this is so great because the boys were always mom boys, but Isabel wants her Daddy, even when she is sick.) She is walking everywhere now. I just love this stage, she holds her hands out and tries to move her feet fast before she falls down. When she falls she doesn't usually cry, even when she gets hurt. She just gets mad and wants to do it again. We have a big car the kids like to sit in and push. She just loves getting in and out of it and she loves to push it. But it is causing problems. She gets so mad when it gets stuck and she doesn't want your help. I have had to hide it from her sometimes. She is also getting her one year molars right now, so is a little more cranky. She just loves her brothers, she loves to pull their hair and try to take their toys. She does not like to be picked up by them. Lincoln thinks she likes to wrestle with him, but I don't think she is really into it yet. We take the cushions off the couch so she can get on the couch by herself. She is so proud of herself and will sit, lay, roll, stand and be entertained on the couch for a long time. She also just loves climbing on things, like her little rocking chair. We are so in love with her. We had a little birthday party for her last Sunday, it was very nice, Daddy did a good job putting it together. Lincoln really wants to have a birthday party with Isabel, so we are going to have a joint birthday party for Lincoln and Isabel and friends in January, when Christmas gets settled down.

Happy Birthday Izzy!
