#57 - Princess Art Explosion

February 26, 2012Isla's friend Ethan gave her an art set with OVER 1000 pieces in it. Andrew just about died. He hates toys with lots of pieces. I, on the other hand, realized that I would have died to get my hands on this art kit as a child. Here's Isla learning the art of water color from her Dad.

#56 - Betime Princess

February 25, 2012

Isla got this Princess Bedtime Book for her birthday. She LOVES it! The only problem is that Rapunzel didn't make it in the book so she asks me to retell all the stories to incorporate aspects of Rapunzel into them. I can still see Baby Isla when I look at this picture. LOVE!

#55 - Phrenology

February 24, 2012Andrew & I are forever trying to convince people of Isaac's weird head shape. (Luckily the Dr's do not need convincing.) The problem is, you have to be in an odd angle to see it. Here's a poor attempt to capture it on camera. The one thing this does show is how different his ears are. This was taken almost directly behind him. The ears are a little more lined up, but not completely. Also, on the left side of the photo, there is no shadow at the base of his skull where it sloops in because it does not slope in. It is flat. It is hard to see, but the dark shadows on his skull are actually indentations.

#54 - Ummm....

February 23, 2012
This continues to be a bit of a fail on my part...looking at my calendar, I have no idea what we did on Feb. 23rd. One thing we did NOT do was take pictures. I took this on February 25th. Isaac has the best cheek bones - they are totally from his daddy.

#53 - Jewelry Box

February 22, 2012
Isla got this jewelry box for her birthday from her cousins, Diego & Luca. It came with "jewels," glitter glue and stickers to personalize it. She had a blast today - her first glitter glue experience.

#52 - Snowman Jams

February 21, 2012Isla is OBSESSED with her "Snowman Jams." She got them in 2010 from Granma Suzi & Grandpa Don and they are still her favorites. Santa brought her and "Brudder" new snowman jams this year, but Isla still prefers to squeeze into the originals.

#51 - A picture of some pictures

February 20, 2012I was planning to take a picture of Isaac and his best friend, Baby Samuel, who is still in his Mama's tummy, but I forgot to bring my camera when we went over to their house for one of our Mexican feasts. It was a shame because Isla and Michael were in rare form and had an absolute blast staying up way past their bedtime and acting like little goofballs. I took this picture today - check out the lovely hand shadow - of some pictures taken on February 20th. Isaac had his appointment to be evaluated for Dynamic Orthotic Cranioplasty (aka - the DOC band, aka - a helmet to reshape his odd shaped head.).
