After ganny et al left, Izzy took a bath to think. There was little splashing or yelling. She just sat and thought. Cute and sad.

Izzy went to church and told everyone "bike" then told the pastor's wife "eat! eat!" and she ate 1 1/2 cupcakes and played with the little girls in church.

When Izzy hears the ABC song she sings along by saying various random letters. She recognizes several letters and knows the names of many.

After working with Izzy, having her count rocks, cookies, blocks, and anything else, she can count to 3. She must be prompted though.

Zac was laying down vacuuming under the couch. Izzy grabbed his leg, pulled, and said "stuck! stuck!" while trying to pull him to freedom.

Izzy saw a burn on my finger. She pointed to it, said "ouch," then kissed it. so sweet! -Charla

After a day of hard partying, Izzy's birthday ends like this.

Today is Izzy's last day of being 1 year old.

Izzy saw me rolling dough and pulled her chair over saying "pin! pin!" and got her little pin and started rolling dough on her chair.

Izzy drew on the wall with chalk, and I caught her. Her response was to point at it, and say "no, no, oops"

Made homemade bacon mcgriddles for Zacs brithday. Izzy saw that I was cooking with "babies" (eggs) and kissed the eggs in the carton.

Paston came over for a visit. I sent him home with a blueberry/lemon trifle. Izzy saw and cried "berries! berries!" as he left.

Zac says she thought they were foxes, and he told her they were badgers, but she never said badger back so he didn't know her word.

I got home from work today to find that Zac had given Izzy a whole onion (my fist size) to eat like an apple while he finished dinner.

Zac corrects me- she took the onionout of the fridge and started eating it in a corner

After 4 days of Izzy asking to watch "bat" - a previously unknown childrens tv program, we have found out what it is: a show about badgers

We've been working with Izzy on saying please and thank you. She's caught on to thank you which sounds like "uck - you"

Izzy and I were eating guacamole and chips and she got some on her elbow. She turns to me and says "lick". - Charla

Izzy found a white goose feather and she was so excited she couldn't get the words out. She shouted "snow! snow! Fala! [feather]"

I was in the grocery store with Izzy on a slow day and a man walked by Izzy and stood a couple feet from her. Izzy proclaimed "pee-oo"

Zac took Izzy to the library as is usual. She found a book about a fox and proceeded to loudly tell all in the library of the "fok"
