So much is going on these days and it's hard to keep up with all the changes. Every since we went to Branson with Grandma and PopPop at the beginning of the month, the chattering has exploded. Isla can put 2-4 words together...."where'd it go?" "where's the pig?" Every day there seems to be new phrases and words.
We're still having fussy times with getting dressed and changing diapers. I think it's mostly that she doesn't want to take the time and slow down to do such mundane things. She'd much rather look at her books (especially the animal books), color, or steal Momma's phone or the 'mote.
Sleeping is going okay. She cries out during the night some, but usually we check the video monitor and she hasn't really moved. Occasionally we'll have to go check on her--last night P went in to check on her and she told him "no, no, no" and laid back down. She let him put her blanket back on her and went back to sleep.
She's pretty attached to the chenille blanket her godmother made her. She wants to play with it sometimes, but doesn't really carry it around. For the most part, it stays here but we take it to Grandma's when we spend the night there. Grandma forgot to send it back last week and it wasn't a big deal, but this week when we had it here but it hadn't made it back to Isla's room, she didn't get to sleep when Momma remembered and took it in there.
PopPop is still her favorite person. We pull up into my parent's driveway and before I can even get out of the car, she starts saying PopPop. We'll go inside and she'll go to my mom but immediately start looking over her shoulder for PopPop.
She's also a big fan of her Mimi, but P's mom moved back to Washington state this week. Isla's really going to miss her.
Grandma's been teaching Isla things. You can ask Isla who she loves and she'll start naming Momma, Daddy, MiMi, PopPop.... Sometimes you get the whole list, sometimes she sticks with one or two. A few days ago I asked her and she said "Momma." I asked who else? She said "him" and pointed to her Daddy.
So sleepy! Early bedtime--more updates later!!
