Family picture late again.

Or also called “oh yeah that’s why we don’t take pictures with the dogs”. Do you know how hard it is to get the three of us to look in the same direction, at the camera, at the same time? Now imagine throwing the dogs in there too. Yeah.

I think this was the best shot where you could actually see all of our faces. And none of us are looking at the camera.

You know, I haven’t been doing recaps on Isabelle. It’s because by the end of the month I can’t remember anything specific so I don’t have anything to write about. But this month, one, no, two things stick out spectacularly, annoyingly, horrifically…

She can now reach the lights and open doors by herself without the help of a chair. Just one day, she realized it. Alan’s losing sleep over this. With every click of the fan he imagines her barging into the bedroom while he’s asleep. And I’m constantly following behind her turning off lights.

This also makes bed time a challenge, to say the least. Why lie there contentedly waiting to fall asleep when you can climb off the bed, turn on the lights, and LEAVE the room?! But once she’s asleep she’s a champion sleeper (well usually, except for this morning when she woke up at 5:52am and stayed AWAKE).

Oh wait, three things stick out. Add throwing her food to the dogs on purpose. She now asks for food just so she can throw it to the dogs. Or sometimes just to throw into the air in every direction because she knows they will eat it. I just thought of that right now because, yep, that’s what she’s doing right this moment. Ok. Must stop typing to deal with my little monkey.

Have a great weekend everyone!
