Izzie is sound asleep in her crib. So, I am taking this quiet moment for a blog update. Izzie will be 11 months old tomorrow!!! The picture above is one I took of her for her first birthday invitations. Oh, I have so much more to do and just a month to get it all straight. It's a lot of fun though. I know she is going to dig into her cake like a professional, no assistance needed. Izzie has a sweet tooth or 6 of them rather. There is going to be so much going on in the next 2 months. We have another first birthday to go to this coming up weekend. Izzie's birthday will be the first week of October. Then, we have the fair to look forward to. After that, we are leaving for Disney World!!! There is just too much excitement contained in one tiny month. Not to mention, Fall is the Kirkland's favorite time of the year.
I'm getting so sad and happy at the same time thinking about all that is happening. Izzie is walking, well more like running all over the place. She started taking steps a little over a month ago. We are now busy trying to keep up with her. Izzie likes to be chased, too. It's so funny. She intentionally will walk away, try to sneak, and wait for you to come get her then hurry as fast as she can out of your reach. She does this while squealing and giggling. She's too cute.
You can tell in the picture above that she has these little flyaway curls. Notice on the side of her little noggin. I wonder what it will be like when it grows longer? I'm sure that strawberry blonde shade will get darker with time.
Izzie doesn't have a very big vocabulary, yet. We are working on it. I guess some kiddos accelerate in other areas faster. She does ma, da, dog (well what we think is dog).. I think that's pretty much it right now.
Her new favorite things to do are clap and point. She points at everything!!! It's a good way to communicate though. The pointing sometimes makes it easier to figure out what she wants.
Favorite foods: anything with tomato sauce, noodles/macaroni, pizza, cheese, gerber graduate puffs, goldfish, and chicken. Of course, you already saw the sweet tooth comment. Unfortunately, she is about as picky as her parents. She will occasionally eat a carrot.
She is currently wearing 12-18 months (more like 18 months). She is a size 4-5 shoe. She just keeps growing. I think it is starting to slow down a bit.
I think that's it for now. Izzie is asleep and it's mommy's bedtime, too!
