Baby Steps and Quick Steps...

Isabella made a met a HUGE milestone in her life! Two days ago she started to take steps all by herself! By the end of the day, she had taken 10 baby steps without help! We were all so excited for her that we would yell and clap. Then, Bella would look at us with a big smile and starts clapping for herself.

Bella is growing up so fast! I don't know where the time has gone? I was walking the halls at church last Sunday with her (this is my usual routine since she is in the stage of not being able to sit still for a minute) when a fellow young mother, who was also walking the halls with her toddler, says to me, "Only three more months until she'll be in nursery right?" I had to stop and think about that for a minute because I couldn't even believe it. She will be nursery age in 3 months! How crazy that sounded to me. WOW!

Anyway, Bella is learning and growing so much right now. It is so much fun to watch her as she discovers a new world every day. Sadly, I missed out on a lot of the every day stuff with Alyssa at this age, so it is so fun to be here with Bella.

Alyssa is getting so excited for Bella to get to the age where she can play with her more and to have someone to get into trouble with her. Bella watches everything Alyssa does with amazement, and Alyssa is always trying to coax Bella into trying something new. I love that they love each other so much. I hope they stay that way always.

Alyssa is such a fun and active girl. One thing is for sure- I never get bored when I am around her. She loves to play, run, laugh, and most of all DANCE! She was cracking me up when she was dancing in this video. She was doing like a mix of both dance and taekwondo. Rob and I have actually been throwing around the idea of getting her into a taekwondo class this summer. This video just proved that she's got the moves for it. :)

Shana you are such a GREAT mom! Bella is darling and I can't BELIEVE she only has three months to nursery...wow wow wow. Alyssa is such a cutie. I love the dancing video. I love her energy. As my mom says to me about Cedi, if we channel that energy in the right direction what a difference they will make in the world. :)

Your girls are so cute and full of life--Wonder where they get that?! But you're right. It does go so darn fast! I'm trying to soak it in, but it's hard to do when a million things have to be done at the same time. I'm just hoping heaven has great video.
