Isabella's 2 Year Pictures

Well, we finally got our act together and had Izzy's 2 year pictures taken this past weekend. They were taken by a friend of ours that is getting into the photography business full time. We are excited for her and the fact that she gets to do something she enjoys and is passionate about. (It also helps that she is awesome at it and has an amazing personality for it.) I know she will be really successful. Her website is www.photographybyjourneys.com, check it out!

Here are a few pictures that she took. Thanks Stacey for everything! Izzy had a lot of fun with you and mentioned getting her "pictures taken in the park with Stacey" again...she has a really good memory. Jayci

Happy 4th of July!! (already?)

We had a great 4th of July weekend, having Friday off as a family was HUGE. It was nice to spend so much time together. Isabella got do fireworks for the first time, since previous years she slept through the fireworks. We did sparklers and snaps and watched the fireworks over the river. When the fireworks were going off, she would name every color or shape... I think the oval ones might have been her favorite. She made instant friends with the lady next to her and proceeded to tell her every color and shape. Another highlight of the night was she got to see fire flys for the first time, she is usually asleep when they are out in the evenings, so that was a special treat for her and she is still talking about it. If you have been to VA in the summer, there are tons of these things at night...it is really pretty fun to watch them light up the night.

I had to put this picture in here...I know it is not 4th of July, but this is a true Field or maybe Bartlow trait.....crossing her feet while standing up. Pretty cute.

ABC's and Singing

Isabella has been singing her ABC's for some time now, but we can never get them on video because as soon as she sees the camera, she stops. I was making dinner one night a few weeks ago and she starts singing her ABC's, but this was the "bass version." I guess we will take what we can get. Enjoy.

And here is a video of Izzy singing after breakfast one morning. We still aren't sure what song this is suppose to be, but this is very serious singing.
