My Baby's Growing Up!!!

It's been over 9 months since Isabelle was born. She is an amazing little creature. She has a smile for everyone and anyone who passes through her way can't help but give her a grin. I turn my back on her for one second and she's into mischief. She knows where in the house I am and she always manages to track me down. Lately she's been teething and this means little to no sleep at night. It 's been around 2 weeks now of getting up several times and either feeding her or snuggling her. Last night I only had to get up twice. I am still exhausted today but I think we may be getting back to normal. I hope.

Yesterday evening, Mark went to Kinsmen. I decided it was a good time to make a card I had been meaning to make for awhile. Abby had taken the cushions off the couch to make a fort and I just left them on the floor. Isabelle was crawling around them and having fun so I figured they were better off there. I set up my card making stuff on the cushion-less couch and got to work. Now, if there is one thing that Isabelle loves more than anything, it's paper. Any kind of paper and she's off to grab it and eat it. I cut up the paper to make the card and put the scraps on the couch. She squirmed her way over to the couch and reached up. So I moved everything to the back of the couch. She leaned up and got both hands on the couch and lifted herself up. She deserved that piece of paper. She worked for it.
