Dear Isabella,
The last few days have been very sweet. You've been extra cuddly and I love it. You've been completely content to lounge around and just kiss and hug. It's been really nice. I hope you still want to do this when you are 12.

Feet or Shoes
Dear Isabella,
You have decided that people either have feet or shoes. It's hilarious. If you are wearing shoes, you don't have feet. You have shoes. I love your logic.

Mermaid!
Dear Isabella,
You are currently obsessed with The Little Mermaid. We sing the songs, read the books, play with the toys, buy the T-shirts, and most importantly, watch the movie. It's so funny to watch how excited you get about her. You do the funniest mermaid poses, and you do the sweetest little mermaid moves in the the bathtub, of course.

Cheese
Dear Isabella,
The Green Bay Packers won the Super Bowl and you are now forced to wear a lot of Cheesehead apparel. The other day you were wearing your Cheesehead sweatshirt -- you were super proud of the cheese wedge on your chest. Anyway, we were shopping at Target, and I saw the cutest little kitty shirt. I asked you if you wanted it. You stared at it, though about it, and responded, "No, Mommy, have cheese. " You are hilarious!!!

Snacks!
Tonight I saw a disgusting car packed full of food wrappers. I stared at it and wondered how the driver could even see out of the filthy, trash-filled rear window. You noticed that I was looking at the car and you shouted, "Mommy, snacks!" in the most excited little voice. I paused and thought about it: I saw a filthy, nasty car, and you saw an awesome snackmobile. Thanks, Izzy. You make the world a better place.

Chick-Fil-A Boo Boo
Dear Isabella,
A few months ago, you got the tiniest scrape on your wrist going down the slide at Chick-fil-A. You showed me the boo boo and talked about it for months. I thought that you had finally forgotten all about it... until the other day.
We drove by Chick-fil-A. I asked you if you wanted to stop for dinner because Daddy had a work dinner. You exclaimed, "No, Mommy!" and showed me your boo boo. Seriously? Months later you were still thinking about that tiny scrape. I love you, Isabella.

Abby
You got a stuffed Abby doll today from Sitty. Abby is a character from Sesame Street. As soon as you opened the box, you were in love with her. You carried her around all night and were pretty mad when her sewn on clothing couldn't be removed so she could bathe with you. Instead, you opted to place her on your training toilet while you got ready for your bath. After a few moments, you picked up Abby, wiped her bottom and threw the tissue in the toilet.
This pretending stuff is pretty darn cute.

Daddy's Cereal
Dear Isabella,
Last night you demanded that I go to Food City. When I asked why, you replied, "Daddy." I wasn't really sure what we were looking for, but I took you in. You walked down the cereal aisle and found Daddy's favorite cereal, Raisin Bran. You proudly carried the box to the counter and "paid" for it. You were very proud this morning when you showed Daddy what you got for him.

Phone
Dear Isabella,
We had our first phone conversation on Saturday. It was wonderful. Instead of just listening, you talked back. You even told me, "Bye Bye!" You are growing far too quickly. It's so much fun.

Grammy
Dear Isabella,
Grammy is staying with us all week. You are having so much fun with her. You all do crafts, have picnics, play dolls, bake, and watch cartoons. You are having so much fun, and so is she. I'm really glad that you all are spending this time together.

You are 2!!
Dear Isabella,
You are now 2!! You had such a fun time at your birthday party. Three of your friends came over: Henry, Lily, and Isiah. You all played pin the tale on the donkey, the grand prize game, and played with your kitchen. You loved it.
Sitty gave you a rocking chair and the sweetest little outfit with an owl applique. Grammy and Grampy gave you a savings bond and some cute party dresses. We gave you some sticker books, Disney movies, and a double stroller for your babies. You are a HUGE fan of your babies, and you all are totally enjoying the double stroller.
You are really growing up! You are VERY independent. I can't help you with a lot of things anymore because you want to do them all by yourself. I'm not allowed to dress you, comb your hair, brush your teeth, help you in the car, feed the dogs, or let Daisy out of her crate. You want to do it all!!
