Isaiah Jae 25 Months

Happy 25 Months Isaiah Jae!


25 Month Highlights:
-New month, new haircut thanks to Daddy! So handsome!

-One of your fav activites...chasing big sister's around the house with push toys 

-Waiting outside in the parking lot before we got called into your 2 year check up 

-We went to the Chattahoochie Nature Center to see the butterflies. You weren't all that enthralled with them : ) 




-Hot summer days with bike riding and then popscicles in the shade!

-4th of July Fun!



-This is what we get when we say "Say Cheese"


-Blueberry picking fun family day



-Another favorite activity...playing piggy back rides but needing assistance : )

-You LOVE jumping from the ottoman to Daddy's lap on the couch

 -Mimi daycare and cousin fun!



Sleeping: No big changes. Bedtime is still around 7:30, so we go up around 7 for your bedtime routine (change into PJs, medicine, brush teeth, read a book or 2, sing a couple songs and then nighty night). To be honest I don't know what time you wake up, b/c you just play and "read" so well in your crib until we get you which can be anywhere between 8 and 9 am. Nap is around 1:30 and you sleep for about 1.5 to 2.5 hours most days. 

Eating: You LOVE to snack...and eat all the processed foods. You love fruit sticks, annie's fruit snacks, annies cheetoes, Z-Bars, salami, cheese, and cereal. You are a great eater of all fruits, but pretty much NO vegetables! Some days you like chicken and beef, and other days you won't touch it. But you certainly will eat your weight in ketchup that we give you to dip said chicken or beef in : )

Isabella is 6!

How on earth is our oldest 6 already!?! Time really does fly! We enjoy her more and more each year, and it has been a true joy watching her grow and change into the little woman she will become. Maybe not that little, b/c she certainly is growing so much taller!

We weren't going to let Covid-19 put a damper on birthday celebrations for our big girl. Although we couldn't invite all the friends she would have liked, she still had an "AMAZING" birthday party (her words!). We are thankful to be in quarantine with the Leflers and our family, because there is no shortage of girlies to play with : )

We got a big water slide bouncy house and just had a day of outdoor water fun! 

Isabella got a bunch of desk organization and arts and crafts things for her desk, as well as a lot of books (her request!), a Twilight Equestria Girls doll, and a paint by sticker book. She loved it all!

-Birthday morning streamer and balloon tradition!


-Getting a lot of fun desk supplies and art things for your new (to you, because it was Mama's in high school and beyond!) desk in your room! 



-Fun birthday party!
