Photo: Izzy with her bag, exploring her world
Hello blogworld!
I have missed popping in here and reading everyones updates.
Anyhoo... A quick update: Settlement on our new home was last week - it feels so good to be able to call this place home. We have lived here since I was pregnant and always hoped the owners would sell as it was love at first sight. So, here we are nearly 2 years later!
Izzy is now 15 months old. She is an absolute little gem; she amazes us everyday as her personality blossoms and she makes this world her own. Her current 'thang' is bags. It is a total bag obsession. We do not leave the house without her pulling out one of her bags and slinging it over her shoulder.. in fact, sometimes she insists on bathing with her handbag!
Her vocab is growing.. Hello being her first word besides Mum, Dad and Ta... her first audible sentence or phrase was 'Let's Go!' last week.
Can you tell her mum is a virgo who is always on the go?!? I already had the feeling that perhaps I should slow down a little and let us smell the roses a bit (this is really hard for me to do.. I always feel like I should be 'doing' something') but little Izzy is already teaching me some life lessons and I have realised that I actually use this phrase at least 100 times a day. Scary. I am now making a concious effort to minimise the 'lets go's' and increase the 'look at thats' and 'whats this?' Enjoying the world around us.. together and slowly.
