My Momma is a slacker!


It's a busy month for me!!


A lot has happened over the last several weeks and all of my friends and family may have heard my good news through the grapevine but I want to share it here too.


First - I am walking now and lovin' it.

I started walking toward the end of July taking baby steps but have since perfected my moves and now I am a walking fool. My mom thinks it's so cute that I show off my Frankenstein moves as I amble forward. Keep in mind I only walk when I want to not when asked. A girl has to have some standards.


Two - Teeth that is. I am still growing my two top front teeth. It has been months and months and months....we have been waiting a long time for those two teeth to come in. They keep coming up and going back but they are finally ALMOST through the skin (but not quite).


Three - The most exciting news is that my parents sold our house and bought me a new one. Actually truth be told mom was off having a great time with Aunt Robyn and Bubbe in the Bahamas and Dad and I sold our house. I helped clean while Dad did the talking. Mom did all the negotiating once she got home but Dad and I made it happen. My cutely decorated room sealed the deal.


That pretty much brings you all up to this week.

My grandpa Jay was supposed to arrive tomorrow for Aunt Robyn's wedding but he could hardly wait to see Carter and me so he jumped in his car and started to drive WAY before he had planned. Mom said he will be here late tonight so we won't get to see him until tomorrow night probably. Aunt Robyn and Uncle Jason's wedding is this weekend and we are all so excited for it to get here. I have been practicing flashing my two toofies for the camera and I am so excited to wear my pretty party dress Aunt Robyn bought me and my pink sparkly shoes my mommy bought me. Aunt Caroline and Aunt Suzanne arrive in later this week and I have all kinds of cousins, aunts and uncles arriving soon. I am going to stay with Nana and Papa after the wedding. I am sure they have something fun planned.


Bright and early on Monday morning after every one of the wedding guests is gone and Uncle Jason and Aunt Robyn have long boarded the airplane for Hawaii, mommy and Bubbe are going to finish packing my house up to move. On Wednesday morning after they have taken me to school the movers are going to pack the truck up with all of our stuff and move it to our new house. My dog Louie, my mom, dad and I are going to move in with Bubbe and Zayde for a little while. On Thursday mom and dad close on our current house and on Friday mom and dad close on our new house. Then it's to work Dad goes scraping off all of the wallpaper. Mom wants paint on the walls and no wallpaper. Dad is going to take off the whole next week to make my new house pretty. I can't wait for my new room, it is huge. Mom and Dad keep talking about how excited Louie will be when he sees our new four season room. He can look outside all day long. Mom is excited about our living room/dining room and Dad loves the huge garden and yard. Dad even promised Papa lots of rhubarb for pies next year.


It's been an exciting few weeks and the next few weeks are shaping up to be pretty exciting as well. We can't wait for all of you to come visit us at our new house!!!


Lots of love,

Izzie
