Izzie is such a personality now.

Izzie can sit on her own and will be crawling any day now. This afternoon I placed her in the middle of her room and then went in the kitchen to start baking. When I came back she was halfway across the room in the corner. I am fairly certain that it was a combination of scoots and rolls that got her there but I know she will be crawling all over very very soon. She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth a lot. She has even moved one hand in front of the other just not all four appendages yet.

Both girls seem to really like our new apartment. Ollie is picking up new words every day. She says Verde, cuarto, apple juice and more. I think maybe with less people doing the talking she feels like filling the silence. She gets to stay home with Papa and her sister and he says they play real cute all day. We did have her in a big girl bed but had to put the rail back up. I was finding her sleeping in different places every morning and was afraid that she would actually start getting into things instead of just sleeping in strange locations.

Izzie is such a little princess. She wants everything HER way. I can not make phone calls when she is awake because she wants my undivided attention (unless of coarse Abuela is around and then she will do). I have cut down on the nursing so she is a little fiendish about it right now. She wouldn't take a bottle from me the other day and kept head butting my chest. She is eating very well other than that. We are moving along trying all the fruits and vegetables.

They are such a joy. I can't believe we lucked out with these two sweeties. The other day we went to a get together around the girls bed time and I was really worried about how they would act. Well, there was another 2 year old there and she was the one that threw a fit. It was funny too because Izzie and Ollie just stared at her when she was screaming. I honestly think Izzie was thinking, "what is going on here? This kinda thing never happens at my house."
