Second Halloween, First at Fisher

The first year meant pea in the pod for Isabelle. The second saw a chicken costume come scampering out the closet. Although Isabelle looked great in her outfit, it was really the whole Fisher gang that took the show. So much so, that after crossing a busy street via elevator and skyway, they were so [...]

Isabelle and Daddy’s Guitar

I know this will be the first of many picture sets with Isabelle listening to music and playing along. She really just can’t get enough of the strumming and the rhythm of music. Whether she is bouncing her head up and down or trying to get her fingers stuck in my fretboard, she craves music [...]

First Radio Flyer

I remember my first Radio Flyer being a big milestone, but I don’t remember it happening right after my first birthday (not that I can remember anything at that age). Our friends, April and Rose, got Isabelle her first Radio Flyer push-along car/bicycle/tricycle/cart/thing. It is awesome. Isabelle loves to ring the bell and walk around [...]

Isabelle’s Birthday in KC with Stella, Ben, and Mandy

I know that we would never forget Isabelle’s first birthday anyway, but it was extra special because we spent it with The Counters. Isabelle went on her first hayride, went in her first haunted house, and traveled through her first corn maze. Her cakes were not as popular as the Jello, but they worked. I just [...]

Isabelle’s First Birthday at Fisher

 
We got the idea to serve all of the kids Jello from another boy in Isabelle’s class, but I think that she made it all her own. We didn’t know that the red Jello would stain. No one was too upset, though. Isabelle started off slowly, inching her fingers toward the pans while Luke and [...]

Isabelle is a headbanging dancer…

From the very first moments that we knew her, Isabelle has shown interest in music and rhythm. She has always perked up to the notes of a song or the taps of her father’s fingers on the kitchen table.  Now we have started to notice her moving her head, hips, sholders, and butt to whatever [...]

Eating Solids and Loving It

Isabelle has been eating solids–a lot of them!  She loves meats and cheese.  She’s not a big fan of vegetables (except for sweet potatos) or fruit.  If we are successful in preparing a meal we can sneak those in.  It’s so much fun to be able to share our meals all together.

Isabelle’s Green Sweater

Isabelle is sporting her green sweater–hood and all!  This sweater was made for her before she was born by a co-worker of Papas.  It fits her perfectly now and is great for the fall weather.
