this little lady is 10 months now. it has been a wonderful 10 months and my heart is so full. before i had isla i remember being worried that it would be hard to love 2 kids the same as i can with just 1 and that isla would end up feeling less loved. it is amazing, i am discovering, how one's heart can grow.
isla loves:
being held
clapping her hands
eating rice cereal
crawling around the house
sorting the laundry...
mandarin oranges avocado and blueberries
penelope's little people house that makes noises
paper
keys
daddy
playing with penelope
being tickled
singing
taking off her shoes & headbands (see below)
trying to dress herself (this one is SO cute to watch. she will try to put her shirts on by putting them on her head.)
isla loathes:
when mom leaves
when mom is exercising and not holding her at the same time
when big sister sensors (aka takes away) the toys that she has just discovered
I remember feeling that way when I was pregnant with Kate--worrying how I could possibly love another child as much as I loved my first. It all works out, doesn't it?!! :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd Isla is TOO cute, taking off her shoe and then trying to put it back on. She's a smart one!!
