VA Beach in February

OK - so we'll look back a few months.  Man, I really haven't done a very good job of updating here...

Anyway....

Over a long weekend in February we spent some time in Virginia Beach visiting my sister Katherine and her boyfriend Sean.

Isabelle had just learned to stand up on her own.

Isabelle and Dempsey got to know each other.

Oh hello...

Mmmm, you smell good.

Good Dempsey

A little cold for the beach but we went anyway.

We see a lot of this face around puppy dogs with wet tongues.

Meeting the Florida Family

I must apologize for my very LONG, unintended break in updating what little Isabelle has been up to.  I've been enjoying the summer being home and have been working on my other blog, Pandiola Lane.  (Stop by if you get a minute to see some of the things I've been making this summer.)

So way back in January we went to Florida to visit Tim's extended family that had not yet met Isabelle.

Snow Baby!

We finally had out first real snow day - 9 to 10 inches of very wet heavy snow.  Branches were down all over the neighborhood but the few trees in our yards survived ok.  Oh and Isabelle got to play in the snow!

Christmas in February

Well not really Christmas in February - but you'll finally get to hear about our 4 Christmases (is that the plural of Christmas??).

Thanksgiving....just a tad late...

So I'm going to make up for lost time and FINALLY post some updates on the last few months.

And then we go south...

OK so the last few weeks have been a little hectic which is why I have yet to get around to posting anything about our trip south that we took IN JULY!!!

Updates....finally!

Wow, so I know it's been a while since the last real update on Miss Isabelle. We've taken several vacations and visited a lot of friends and family in the last month. And somehow, now it's August!! What!?!? The last month and a half will have to be broken into a few separate posts so I can add pictures of everything. So if you think you missed something, check the archives. I'll keep updating this week.
