We spent the Easter weekend with Gigi and Pop pop. I don't think I've mentioned that Isabel's Pop pop (my dad) is active on the lung transplant list at Duke Hospital. They are living in Durham until he gets some lungs, so we went to visit them there. Isabel loves visiting them.
The Easter Bunny made a trip to Durham and Isabel got her basket. Here are a few pictures of the weekend, including some nap time with Gigi.

The Emergence of a Dancing Queen
Since day one - Izzy has been a dancer. She has her mom and dad's rhythm, but don't take my word for it. Look at the evolution of this little mover and shaker.

Walking
I am so far off with my posts. I need to really update on Izzy and her new party trick. About a month ago, Izzy took a step to Jeff from the table to the couch. She started to cruise furniture, then while skyping with mom and dad (video phone call) they witnessed her first few steps from the tv to me! She did that fancy walking on the same day as her best friend, Cate.
Since then, we have realized how fearless this girl is. She wanted us to let go of her hands before she could walk - now she thinks she can bound up stairs by herself! (She learned a quick lesson when she attempted to come back down the stairs. Luckily for me, she was only on the first step. Unlucky for her, she doesn't like the steps anymore.)
So, on that note - I'm going to attempt to upload a video of her "gorilla" walking with her dad. (She doesn't hold on anymore, but it's an adorable video.)

Isabel's birthday party
Jeff and I survived hosting a Izzy's first birthday party. Needless to say, we are hitting up Chucky Cheese next year. I'll go into more detail later - need to get some sleep. Long story short, everyone was wonderful including the family that came into town. Izzy had a BLAST with everyone and is catching up on her own sleep.
The pictures are hilarious and hopefully I can cut up some of the video so that you don't have to watch the entire day... We did get a little excited with the video camera.
