Since her last check in, Isabelle has changed so very much. The biggest difference is that now she can WALK! After months of tootling round with her walker and cruising the furniture, she took her first proper steps (4-5 in a row) on March 2nd, and two weeks later (although it seemed like forever!) she was off properly. There is no stopping her now, as she bundles around everywhere, and although she is getting more steady every day we still have lots of falls and bumps as she is quite often like a little drunk old lady waddling about! Since she can now walk and was so very eager to get outside, just before her birthday Isabelle got her first pair of shoes, and we are definitely getting our monies worth from them as she ploughs around the garden, which is her favorite place to be.
Her understanding of what we are saying is great, and she is able to identify, and bring us, objects when we ask her about them. It's so strange to think that although she can't say the words, she knows exactly what they mean - babies are truly marvelous little creatures.
And finally, after 3 months of only having 2 teeth, her top 2 teeth popped in right before her birthday!
For her birthday, I decided I wanted to make Isabelle a chalkboard print after seeing them on Pinterest and loving them. So, I'll let it tell you the rest of Isabelle's vital stats for her big birthday check in...
