Look Who Has a Big Girl Bed!



So here was the deal...
Isabel would get a big girl bed as soon as she was potty trained.
Amazingly enough, she taught herself within two days.
Let's here it for motivation! (And thanks, Uncle Jim, for the bed and night table.)

Getting a Move on It



I am attempting to make some headway in the third bedroom A.K.A. The Abyss. I decided to move the big arm chair and ottomon into my bedroom. It has freed up a lot of room (for more junk, I fear) there. Though I had to move around the dressers, I actually like the way it looks in my room. A nice corner to snuggle up and read in.

Me and My Shadow



One of the fun things about having Isabel in this house is the little room off the kitchen. Though not much in size, ( it is more of a mud room than anything else) it has turned out to be the perfect size for my half-pint daughter. It has been fun seeing her play there these last 18 months. When she got her little kitchen last summer, she immediately started mimicking me when I cooked dinner. Since then, it has been a place to build towers, draw pictures, make gingerbread houses and just have fun. While I know its size will limit how long she'll realistically be able to play there, it is fun to watch her enjoy herself for now.
