Tea party

Isidora loves her tea set, she plays with it almost daily, but this is usually simply carrying around one of the cups or spoons, etc. Recently, she has started to "sip" from the teacup and then give me a "sip" from the cup - this is just making a slurping noise while holding the cup to your mouth.

Yesterday, I decided to try to have a real tea party with Isidora. I filled up the tea pot with water and we sat down and drank some "tea" from the tea cups. It was so much fun!

Here I am pouring the "tea" while Izzie waits patiently (yeah, right).

Taking a nice drink from the tea cup.

Down the hatch!! I love how you can see how much she has spilled on her shirt, she did actually get a lot in her mouth, though!

It looks like we will be having tea parties more often :)

Izzie's funny toy

A couple of weeks ago, Juanita bought several toys online for Isidora. She got her some really neat books, her meal set and some puzzles. Another toy that she picked up was this little creature:

This is a teether from Vulli, a french toy company. Isidora loves this toy. It is a rubber mushroom that also squeaks in a way that is very reminiscent of a dog toy. She loves her toy so much, she carries it all around Nanny and Papa's house with her.

At the front door looking outside.

What is this thing?

On the second floor trying to sneak into Uncle Ben or Aunt Katee's room!

On the third floor in my swing that Papa hung up for me! Squeak squeak!

Since Isidora still only has 6 teeth, and has 14 more to come, Juanita thought it would be good for her to have a more complicated teething apparatus. Turns out the pediatrician was right! She absolutely loves it and loves to chew on it too! Hopefully it will help when those molars come!

Bath time at Nanny and Papa's

This last weekend, Isidora decided to have a poop-tastrophy (aka: blow out). It has actually been quite a while since she has done this, but oh well. So, it was decided that Isidora needed a bath, and when we are at Nanny and Papa's house (Matt's parents), this means the sink!

We decided to leave the water on to let Isidora play with it. She decided it would be fun to drink.

The little tea cup and spoon she is playing with is from a cooking set that her Nanny just bought for her. She had so enjoyed the tea set that my aunt Elaine bought for her for Christmas, Juanita decided to buy her the meal set for their house. Yes, I realize they are "green", which I don't particularly care about, but they are great toys! And Isidora absolutely loves them!

And finally, just for fun. Here is a picture from May, when Isidora was almost 6 months old. She is in the small sink this time. :)
