Silly Parent #7 – Can’t Put On Pants

Saturday, March 11, 2006
Posted in: Illustrations, Silly Parent Series

Sometimes when I put on Isabelle’s pants they just won’t go on. Maybe that’s because I try to put both legs in one pant leg. It just doesn’t work that way. I don’t know how this happens sometimes. I aim her legs, one leg for each pant leg but they both end up in the same leg.

Go read silly parent #6, ripping diaper.

Posted in: Family

Today Isabelle turned six months old and Alan turned 32! We had some friends come over. They brought cake and food and we had a wonderful time. Thank you so much Bridgette, Jennifer, and Marie!!

Oh and see Spongebob pinata? Yes Spongebob pinata! How could I not get him when I saw him at Target, hello?! (along with matching plates, hats, and napkins…yes I’m a goober. And we’re total dorks, we didn’t even bust him up because he’s tooooo cute.)

Month Six with Isabelle

Monday, March 13, 2006
Posted in: Firsts, Monthly Family Picture

Isabelle turned six months old yesterday. Here’s a recap of some of this month:

Isabelle has finally taken an interest in the dogs. When she is in my lap she reaches for them and when Nestle gets close enough she grabs an ear or the scruff of her neck and yanks and pulls. Waldo is shorter so she can’t quite reach him. That doesn’t stop her from trying though.

Oh yes and the jumping this month, yes the jumping. Jumpa, jumpa, jumpa.

And when she’s not jumping it’s all about the feet. She loves grabbing her feet. In fact that’s the first thing she does in the morning when I take off the blankets, she grabs her feet.

Oh and with all the foot grabbing you can’t forget the toes in the mouth. Yes, this month she figured out her toes can go IN her mouth!

She also figured out how to roll from her tummy to her back. No more stuck on her tummy and whining. Now she can roll onto her back and whine!

This month she got to sit in her stroller for the very first time without the attaching baby car seat. Oh look how big she’s gotten.

No more mittens this month…FINALLY. Yay!

And yesterday, the day she turned six months old she got real food, not milk from me!! Food from a spoon! And she seemed to enjoy it. Of course…come on she’s my daughter…she HAS to like food.

Oh and the hair…the crazy hair. It’s finally getting not so crazy. It’s calming down a bit. It’s getting longer and soon there will be a post about her first hair cut…sniffle sniffle.

This month has flown by. I want it all to slow down so I can savor every minute, every second with her. She makes us so happy and it’s going by too quickly.

Read month five.

Baby Booger

Alan is sentimental. It’s sweet. He saved the hospital bracelets we got from Isabelle’s birth. He kept her umbilical cord when it fell off. He kept the band aids from her first shots. I think he even has some nail clippings.

The other day you should have heard me when I picked this big ass booger from Isabelle’s nose. I was sure my loud maniacal laughing would have woken Alan up. I was laughing and saying to Isabelle, Do you think your daddy will want to keep this? as I stuck it onto his computer. I told him what it was. It’s not on his computer anymore. You think he kept it?

Ha ha ha!! How gross am I?

Unfinished

I was going to write a post about what a rough night me and Isabelle had and put up this accompanying drawing. But when I got to this stage of my drawing I thought I’m damn tired so I can finish this tomorrow! And I really like this drawing unfinished so I’m posting it, as is.
