Play time with her leggo truck.

Izzy and Mark sledding in the driveway.

Izzy would hold on tight and down the driveway she would go to me at the other end.

Izzy at the water table. She stood back and watched the other kids for a long time before she started playing in the water.

Izzy at the giant light up wall piano.

She loved the giant sized light piano.

Mark and I started off the new year with some great friends of ours. We went to a quaint Italian restaurant in Elkhorn called Bella Vita. We then went to our friends', the Darlings, house to finish out the new year. Izzy got to stay at the Darlings and play with their two girls, Lily and Charlotte, and the Hoys' kids, Coleson and Brynna. Fun was had by all.

Also in January came lots of snow. Izzy loves the sled and often fights us when it is time to go inside and warm up. She would stay out until her rosy cheeks froze off. We also went to the children's museum when it was too cold to be outdoors. Izzy loved it, but it totally wore mommy out carrying the diaper bag, camera, and trying to keep track of where Izzy went.

Izzy has also discovered mommy's shoes. She digs and digs until she finds my "Barbie" shoes. I don't know what it is about these shoes, but she always picks the same ones every time. She actually gets into them and walks around pretty good.

I'm sure there is alot more to come in 2011 and I am truly looking forward to it. Hope everyone else has a great 2011.
