A boy & his daddy

getting caught up...

Wilson is getting to be SUCH a big boy! He is incredibly sweet and a wonderful big brother. He really watches out for Isabella and lets us know if she's doing something wrong (or dangerous). He always asks us "Mommy/Daddy, what's your favorite movie?" and then when we ask the same question of him, he responds "Cars". Of course! Santa brought him a workshop/tool-bench and he's always playing with the tools, fixing things around the house. Santa also brought Wilson and daddy both lightsabers! So, needless to say, there are lots of lightsaber fights around our home. This week, his new thing has been "Oh, no, Mommy! There's a dragon in our house! I gotta go slay the dragon!" Where did his little imagination come from?



My sweet little Isabella is getting SO big too! She is 15 months now! She is still a mommy's girl and loves to be held a lot. But, she's getting more & more independent every day. She absolutely loves to play with Wilson. He can make her laugh so hard! She loves to play with his tools and trains. Her favorite "girl" toy is her tea set. We have lots of little tea parties (Wilson loves to be a part of this too!). She can walk really well now, and is talking quite a bit, too! She says new words every day. Her personality is definitely coming out... and we think she's gonna be a little stinker! But an absolutely gorgeous little stinker (if I do say so myself)!



Wilson loves to do anything that Daddy does. For about 2 months now, every night when we put Wilson to bed he says "Mommy, I gotta tell you something" and so I lean down close to him and he says "Tell Daddy I wanna go fishing tomorrow." I say "ok" but it has just been WAY too cold for them to go. Well, last week it warmed up quite a bit, so we headed to the lake. Wilson & Isabella spent most of their time feeding their graham crackers to the ducks... but Wilson & Daddy did a little fishing, too!



Yep, she's part monkey! This babydoll climbs on everything! She's got pretty good balance & hasn't had any bad falls yet... yet! She loves to climb the "rock wall" and then come back down on the slide!

Wilson doesn't cooperate with the camera very often these days!

Isabella loves to wear Wilson's safety goggles as she plays with his power tools!


WE GOT SOME SNOW!!!
