Home, Home on the Range

Sorry it has been a while. All is well... Isabella is starting preschool in 3 days! She will be going to a Montessori school for 2.5 hours every afternoon. I think she will love it. I'm glad we still have our mornings together, though :-) She loves to sing and dance, and makes me laugh all day.

Now for pictures (it seems like she only wears 3 dresses because she does. She has a closetful of great clothes, yet she insists on wearing only the ones you see in all the pictures):


Sitting in a firetruck in Avondale (Chicago). We went to the annual Avondale block party and visited our friends, Shelly and Curt, and their twin baby boys.











Yesterday's trip to the Chicago Botanic Garden. It felt terrific to enjoy the sun and the outside after an entire week of rain. Sorry about the weird cropping of the picture; I wanted to remove the couple walking in front of Isabella).

I took a picture of her while she was "napping". I rearranged her room the day before! It feels more feng shui!
