My Lil Park daredevil

Towards the end of each week, Izzy and I go to the park, usually with friends for a playdate. Izzy goes nuts and I try to let her explore on her own, but secretly get anxiety half the time we are there. She is so free spirited and adventerous that it's fun to watch her do her thing, but sometimes I wonder what bone she is about to break...She sure is a little dare devil and doesn't want any help from mommy while climbing, running and jumping.

See her daredevil moves here

And for the most part she walks away without any bumps or bruises, ready for more action the next time we return! I love it - she is growing up and having a blast and I'm proud of her independence and absolutely love seeing her so happy.

She also burns enough energy to need a nap, which I'm getting the feeling she would give up any day if I didn't get her worn out ! (can't let that happen yet! I still need to nap with her each day!)
I am thrilled that it's starting to feel like fall more and that means trips to the park dont leave me worried that we're going to suffer from heat stroke. I really prefer to not be drenched in sweat as I sit and watch her play! Izzy could care less about the temperatures, but she is glad mommy is taking her to the park more often!

Labor Day Weekend 2010

Another busy weekend has come and gone. It feels like we did so much with our family this weekend, but really we were all able to relax some and enjoy hanging out and playing with Izzy for the weekend. I'm thankful for the extra time with everyone. I just wish we had one more day off to do nothing now! Here are a few pictures to recap the weekend. Grammy made homemade blueberry pancakes while Izzy and Grandpa supervised (and taste-tested) YUM!! I'm pretty sure she said Yum a lot this weekend! Izzy showing Grammy how much she loves to take off and run outside She is growing up too fast - but still cuter than ever! Excited that Cheree and Daniel came too Learning all about Mac Books from Uncle D Laughing when Grandpa makes animal noises, another favorite for Izzy Ahhh ...my daily scene of frustration - wish she would listen to us and NOT stand on chairs every chance she gets...but naturally standing is always more fun than sitting for this daredevil, so we're working on that...

Closer than ever

It was soooooo good to see my brother and sister. I'm glad they will get to see Izzy more too! There is so much to her personality and abilities, it is just too hard to describe her over the phone! Yesterday was a very cool day for me - I got to hang out with my brother, sister and brother in law too... hanging out might not sound like a big deal, but to us, it is exciting because for the first time in a long time - at least 7 years the 3 Voyles siblings all live in the same state. Not just that, but we are only 2 hours away from each other. We have been 10 hours apart for the last 4 years...which meant only visiting each other 3 or 4 times a year - 3 or 4 RUSHED visits is hectic and not enough time together for us. Now with Cheree and Daniel in Chattanooga and we're in Nashville (so is Mark), we're all going to be able to see each other much more often, allowing us days to just "hang out" like we used to. I literally called Cheree and Daniel on Thursday to ask so...
