Isabelle is now 9 months old and getting into EVERYTHING!! She started crawling two days after she turned 9 months. Four days later she pulled herself up to standing all by herself. She doesn't want to crawl, she'd much rather stand up and play or walk back and forth holding onto the couch. Now when we put her on the floor she immediately crawls to the nearest piece of furniture and stands up. We bought her a walker so she can roam the house and I don't have to worry about her falling or getting into anything, and let me tell you she is all over the place. I'll say "Izzy where are you?" and she'll honk her horn so I can find her. It's adorable. Naptime has become quite interesting...she now plays in her bed for an hour before completely wearing herself out. She just walks all over her bed, and she has started throwing her stuffed animals out of the bed too. She also started drinking from a sippy cup that same week. She's still not very good at tilting it up, but she's slowly getting the hang of it. Her favorite word is "gum". She says it all day long, "gum, gum, gum". It's very cute, but we have no idea what it means. We went to the zoo for Father's Day. It was her first time at the zoo. She didn't even notice there were animals there, but she really enjoyed people watching. As you can see from the pictures, Matt and Iz had a great day together. We find out on friday if Izzy is going to have a baby brother or sister. I know she can't wait! I'll update the blog to let everyone know what the new baby is going to be!!!
