Oh, Noisy One

Well this should come as no surprise to you guys but our little Isabelle is becoming more and more vocal day with each passing day. She has sounds with constants like "ga", "da", "ca" and "ba" but, she has not put a animate or inanimate object to a sound. She is quite the little babbler though and we love every minute of it...for now :)

Isabelle has completely fallen in love with Bear and Sam (my parent's dog). When either of us are holding her, even if its first thing in the morning, and we ask her "where is your dog?", she looks down and all around for Bear and when she sees her, she smiles and usually lets out a "uh".

Her newest "antic" is what we like to call squishy face. She will start laughing or just smiling at you and scrunch up her nose and make little noisy blasts of air come out of her nose as her little lips scrunch up and show off her two bottom teeth. Its hilarious! She does this at least 5-6 times a day and we think she knows it makes us laugh :)

Another "trick" we are seeing if she get is when we say "I am soooo big" as she throws both of her hands up in the air. She usually starts to laugh and most of the time will throw her hands in the air again. Is it luck? We like to think not :) hehe!

We are also working on waving "hi" and "bye". Every time we see someone, we take one of her hands and wave at that person saying "hi" or "bye". And every once in awhile she does without our help. We like to think we are getting a wave on command but again, we think its just luck :) But, we will keep on trying. As they say, if there is a will, there is a way!
