Isabella and Mommy

So we went to take Christmas pictures of Isabella---Oh was that a fun day!  I tried everything for Isabella to take pictures (including sitting with her for a bit like the picture below) and she would just cry the whole time.  Needless to say we only got one picture of her by herself...oh well one was all we needed!

I can't believe my baby is 19 months old!

McCann Lips

It's kind of hard to see, but Isabella and Neal are making the same face with their lips.  This trick runs in the McCann family---I can't do it for sure!

Halloween 2008

Isabella with Nonna, Nicky (as Geurrero) and Joey (as a whoppie cushion)!

Our little ballerina trick-or-treating!

Candy fiend!

Neal and I went to a party as Dog the Bounty hunter and his wife Beth.

California Adventure

We decided to head to California Adventure for a few hours.  We have never actually gone there because we always end up going to Disneyland with our passes.  It was a lot of fun and a lot less crowded!

Carousal Ride!

Isabella watching the Playhouse Disney show.  She loved it!

The Belly's Getting Big!

24 weeks

20 weeks

Day at Daddy's Work- Tall Ships Festival in Dana Point

Since Neal works for station 29 in Dana Point, he had to go cover at the Tall Ships Festival.  I took Isabella down there and she was so excited to see her daddy! Of course they got a call just minutes later and he had to leave...so typical!

Mmmmm...A yummy popsicle!

Moving Day!

So we rented our house and two weeks later we had to be out.  We moved with my parents...ahhh!!!!  We've been looking for another house to buy. We put an offer in, but the banks are soooo slow these days to decide on the short sales. Hopefully they'll decide soon.  For now, Isabella is loving all the attention from Nonno and Nonna!

Swim Lessons

It's going to be a BOY...most likely!

So we went for a first trimester screen and everything looks good so far!  And it's about 75% certain it's a boy.  I'm still only 12 weeks so that's why we're not 100% sure, but he flashed us pretty good!

The River- 4th of July Weekend

Isabella did so good at the river.  She loved being on the sand bar and she had so much fun with her cousins!!

She's FINALLY walking!!

So this week I would say it's official and it's about time being that she's 14 months old now. She's been standing on her own, cruising, and taking steps for quite a while (like the last month), but this week she's been walking everywhere.  She definitely wobbles and falls a lot, but always gets right back up! Man, I thought this day would never come.  She's just getting so big. I can't believe it!   (Pictures to come!)

Mmm...Blackberries

Isabella loves fruit, especially blackberries!

My First Bath with a Boy...

This was my first bath with my boyfriend Mason.  I was not a happy camper!!

May

The pot holders my aunt in Italy made OR slippers!

Mmm...I am definitely Italian and LOVE pasta!

I'm a fun toy too! See, I can fit in my toy box!

Love my mom's slippers!

Happy Mother's Day!

We're back!

Yes, it's been forever! But now that it's SUMMER time I hope I'll be able to keep up the blog.  Here's a couple right after Isabella's first birthday with her new slide/swing set!

Family Pix

So back in September (I know a little late with the blog, but oh well!) we took some family pictures in Rancho Santa Margarita by the lake.  They turned out really good and all the kids were good sports! There were so many of the kids that came out so cute, it was hard to choose.

Happy New Year! Plus some funny pics!

It was a pretty low key new years.  We hung out with some friends while all the babies were asleep upstairs!  

So I decided I would post a few other pictures that I thought were funny.  One is of Isabella's staticy (sp?) hair in Colorado, along with her two fangs picture, and Izzy and daddy being couch potatoes!
