Piggie Tails




Izzy's new favorite hairdo is her piggie tails! It makes her look so much older than she is. She plays with the "tails" and thinks they are so neat. In these pics she is drawing and coloring in her highchair watching her favorite show- Dora!

The 12" pancakes we had at Hash House restaurant (featured
on Man vs. Food tv show



Brad and I had the opportunity to take a vacation by ourselves to Las Vegas last week. My parents so graciously watched Izzy for us (thank you!) We really needed to get away by ourselves for a while and it was awesome! I have a few pics that I took to share but the best pics we have are the ones that were taken professionally at the different shows and exhibits we went to. A few things we did were see the Criss Angel show which I loved, the titanic exhibit with real artifacts, the conservatory at the Bellagio, the world famous chocolate fountain at the Bellagio, the minus 5 ice bar (everything was made of ice), the dolphin and tiger habitat at our hotel (the mirage) and ate at a restaurant called Hash House that has been featured on TV for their ginormous pancakes that were 12"!!! Our hotel was fabulous and luxurious. We visited many other hotels such as the Monte Carlo, MGM, Luxor, Mandalay Bay, Bellagio, Wynn, Treasure Island, Imperial Palace, and im sure there are more. This was our second trip to Vegas- the last time we went was about 4 years ago so this time we tried to see different things.

Mothers Day


















Here are a few pics from Mothers day. We had fun with family and Izzy had a blast playing in the sand getting filthy dirty with her dress and boots!

1st Cub Game




Izzy had her first cub baseball game last week! Her nana, grandpa, and uncle Matt bought her this cute outfit from cubs den and took her to watch the game. We were a little nervous how she would do seeing as how she will not sit still for more than a few seconds, but she did very well and enjoyed it! She looks like such a big girl!
