isla: week eight

a little late posting this week. the days were full, and every time i had a free moment i meant to type it up but never got to it. last night it was all i could do to get in a quick shower, lay down on the couch, and fall asleep in the middle of the show i had been trying to watch all day. 

man, life changes.

one day last week i put water on to boil to make dinner for myself. then, isla woke unexpectedly from her nap and was a little fussy. i thought a car ride and a quick walk at the lake would calm her down. and i was right! she was delighted to get into the car and was a joy to stroll with... until i remembered that pot of water on the stove at home. quickly, we turned around and power walked (no running with this girl yet) back to car. burn baby, burn! i've always said it harder to power walk than run. luckily we made it home safely, and found the water boiling furiously, but with no real damage done. however, it certainly is frustrating to be forgetful.

we closed on our house here in dallas. now we are renters until we close on our new house in melissa on wednesday. it felt really good to get rid of this place. it was a great home for five years. it was cozy and beautiful. it was the place we brought our baby home to. it will always have a special place in my heart. but, we're "moving on up!!!"

She is amazing! I love this sweet girl. And her beautiful mommy. Already miss our walks around the lake.
