Adios, Papa!

I am still in shock. Leo is still in shock.

And Isabella is probably still in shock.

This all started a few nights ago. We were having a not-so-hot day and we all really needed a laugh, a smile or just some stress free time.

We were in our bedroom, Bella had just finished with her bath, her bedtime lotion was put on and her jammies were snapped shut. I was being silly, she was laughing at me and Daddy was laughing at us.

She and I turned to go prepare her final bottle for the evening.

Momma: Isabella, can you tell Daddy bye-bye?

Isabella: Bye-bye

Momma and Daddy: Oh my gosh!!! She said bye-bye!!

Isabella: laughing and kicking her legs...so proud of what she has accomplished...

I am so proud of her and cannot believe she has started to talk. *sigh*

It's true what everyone has told me. They sure do grow up quick.

I have to admit, I was hoping her first word would be Kristi (or Chi-Chi - whatever was easiest for her to say)
just joking

They do grow up quick. Too quick!!! My little boy just turned 2 and I still can't believe it. That's so exciting that your little one is starting to talk. It's just amazing, isn't it? So cute!
