Isobel

What a stunner she is!  Isobel is the more social of our two girls with a cheesy smile at the ready for any and everyone.  She also loves the act of waving and blowing kisses.  "Bye" she waves at complete strangers as she is being wheeled around the supermarket.  

As at March she can now walk - a recent triumph, can say between 10 - 15 words including up, down, duck, mum, dad, Pooh etc.  Saying the word 'Alexa' has not yet been identified.  

It is great to watch the interplay between these two -  generally Alexa is very kind and loving, responding to Isobel's crying, ensuring she gets her fair share of treats etc however she does seem to want some distance in the afternoons.  I often see Alexa sitting on the couch watching TV with Isobel circling reaching out to tap Alexa on the knee and enjoying the howl of outrage and the expressive "I don't like that Isobel".   It's very amusing, but of course does not create a harmonious afternoon so we have to find 

distractions for Isobel.  

Isobel is a great eater - as Alexa was at this age.  Alexa has somewhat deteriorated - I think she's just being picky, but unfort for her dinner is what is put in front of her so if she doesn't like dinner she gets down without any.  Breakfast has always been the best meal of the day!
