Crazy Week!!

Hey guys.. so we've been pretty busy as of late, still! Haha.. One day things shall slow down. It's funny how a couple of months ago I was upset because I had nothing to do and thought I would be so lonely here without Jonathan and Jamaica. Granted I do miss the two of them very much, I have strangely been kept crazy occupied and now I have made some new great friends, as well as catch up with old ones. God always has a plan, I just happen to be impatient and forget that!

This weekend Iz and I went to Big Bear with Holly and it was so pretty! There is an actual fall up there! Even in Houston fall isn't really noticeable, but the trees were gorgeous! Iz and Kiera had so much fun and were soo good in the car. It was neat to get away from sand for awhile.



We also went to eat Mexican food, I was shockingly having a craving.. haha. Iz now of course prefers to use "real" utensils rather than her plastic ones.


We are now anxiously waiting for the White Man to return.. and Iz is working hard on saying white.. :) She is still talking up a storm and has learned new words lately, of course. She learned Go go at Blair's soccer game and now loves to shout it from the backseat.. while I am driving, mind you. She also loves to clean up, and picks up her trash (and mine of course) and throws it away. I have also designated a cupboard just for her cups and bowels and she helps me unload the dishwasher and puts everything away. She is the big helper!! I am so amazed at how much she has grown just in the past few months. She is def. a big girl now!!

Eeks... time to catch up!!

These days seem to be flying by and I suppose that is a good thing, I just never seem to be able to get everything done! It is already almost two o'clock and I have yet to shower or do much of anything productive other than work on my paper. Classes are going well, I made an A in my psych. class and so far so good in my anthropology class. My credits finally transfered in which is a major relief for me!

Isabella is doing great. She is growing like a weed and has plenty to say about it, though most of the time it is impossible to understand a word of it. Apparently she says si, and everything else is in Chinese. She can count to three, which is hilarious. Well- for Jeannie she only counts to two so I think they have some weird counting connection.

I am so behind on "events" this is just going to be one big catch up!

The girls at Jen's birthday party.. Bri and Iz are something else!


At the Kid's PFT eating Jenn's ice.. no hands, lazy kid!


Gracie and Iz on the fire truck



Isabella thiefed the bottle outta Jill's birthday sack and later tried to eat the cap!
