I know, I know it's been a while!



We finally got the computer set-up and since I can't update my blog from my phone it has been a while!! I feel like I have very few moments to blog, but I'm going to try and change that because I love how it documents my (and especially Isla's) life.
So two great things happened this week:
a) I went to Rainbow Gardens with my sister Chelsea and Isla. I used to go there all the time with my mom and Grandma Hodges. My grandma died when I was 10, and I had only been there a couple of times after that with my mom. (I think it has been about 14yrs since I've been there!)When we walked into the Garden restaurant I almost started crying because it was exactly like I remembered it and it brought back some tender memories.
b.) Isla is finally starting to try walking!! Yes, I have a 16month toddler who doesn't walk! She just wasn't ready until now I guess! She is learning a lot. She knows all her body parts, she can put together foam puzzles (like the one my Aunt Denise gave me :) and she does her shape sorter and animal sounds and can say "cookie"! Ha! I love her to pieces!
