moving on up....

We are making progress...Isabel moved to her big girl crib in her room last week. She is doing so great...waking about 2:oo and then around 5:45. We have a video monitor, which I continuously check throughout the night. She is also taking at least one nap a day in the crib. This week I am going to try two a day. I am trying to ween her off napping in the swing. She LOVES her swing and is already dependent on the motion to sleep during the day.

We had a big weekend with our best friends "The Garrity's". They drove in from Dallas to visit. Isabel did wonderful and went everywhere with us. We took her to Fratesis on Friday night, to eat crawfish outside Saturday during the day, a stroll outside at Renaissance, and Walkers for dinner on Saturday night. Then on Sunday, we went to church for the first time. She was like an angel the entire weekend.

She is growing like a weed. And starting to interact a little...with an occasional smile. We are trying to soak in every minute with her as a baby. Stay tuned for details about napping in the crib. Here are some pictures of her from this past week.
