What a week we had last week! Isabella is now a full out 2 year old toddler, with little tantrums and everything! She is definately making her presence know around our home now. She is a lot different, but still a lot of the same, from when she was born.
She is still more reserved and more shy than her sister. She still doesn't want to talk much, and my family and friends assure me that it is because she can't seem to get a word in with Alyssa around. Maybe they have a point there? She is smart though. She understands so much now, and knows how to get her point across to us when she needs to. She lets us know exactly what she wants now, and when she wants it. Sounds like a normal 2 year old to me!
She is such a sweet little thing. She is a lot more tender hearted than Alyssa. With Alyssa, I could swat her butt when needed and it wouldn't even phase her. With Bella, if I just look at her with my mean mommy look her lip starts to poke out and quiver.
It is one of my most precious joys in life to see Alyssa and Bella interact and play together. I enjoy watching them pretend play together in their kitchen, and with their dollies. They love each other so much, and I'm so happy that they will have each other through out their lives.
Bella has developed a love for music and dancing just like her sister. Bella has turned into quite the little mover and shaker. We will have to get her into dance classes pretty soon!
We celebrated Bella's birthday by having her family members over for dinner, gifts, and cupcakes. She got some great gifts and she loved being the center of attention for the day. It was so nice to have my mother and my older sister here for Bella's big day, and they were such a great help.
We love you baby girl and we are so happy you are apart of our family!
You didn't have to ask her twice to eat her cupcake!

Halloween...a little late I know.
We had a great Halloween weekend that was filled with lots of candy! I just threw out the last of the halloween candy so that we (me) would stop eating it. Here are some pictures of our halloween highlights.

Alyssa was Snow White and her friend Daxton was a Transformer. They got a kick out of this guy's decoration in his yard.
