3 weeks
She changes almost everyday. And gets more and more adorable.
We think she looks alot like hailee.
2 weeks


First Bath
10 days old


All the kids wanted to be apart of it.
They were all so cute and were big helpers.


Gabe is always the first one to feed her. He loves his little sister.
I guess one good thing about not being able to nurse. Is
the family can be apart of helping take care of her.


Of course, Gabe took her up to his room for some cuddle time. There is not a moment she is left alone. She's always in someones arms. Yes, she is very, very spoiled.

Brotherly Love

Hailee loves to hold her too.
Every time she cries Hailee is to her rescue.
Isabella is very loved.

When we decided to name her. We wanted a a little Spanish twist to her name. Being born in South Florida. Come to find out that Isabella is also a Italian name and Bella means beautiful in Italian. I was super excited. When people here call her by name it sound really pretty. I'm so glad that Michael had a dream about her and that Isabella was her name. I know she was so waiting to come into our family. She is good baby. A couple of days ago, she weighed in at
8 lbs. 8oz. She's getting so big. She's is one of my better sleepers . At night she sleeps for about 4-5 hours. I'm up with her at least once maybe twice. She now is eating about 4 oz. every 4 hrs. I'm so glad it helps me plan my day. I've been so blessed.
Sometimes I feel like a first time mommy all over again. It's been a while since we have had alittle one. Especially living in South florida the climate is so different. I had to ask the dotor what to do with the heat. How to a dress her, watch for her body temp. They told me to dress her in one layer outside and two layers inside. We have noctice she starts to get hot after 3 hours. I was also told that she wasn't suppose to go in a pool or in the ocean intil she was about 2 months old. I remember going to Canada up to the hot spring with a new born and taking them in. So many things have changed since we had a baby last. Learning as we go.
She is healthy, strong and happy.

So I am finally on my computer and was so excited to see those beautiful pictures. Jarom was sitting with me and said "why are you crying mommy"? I just told him that I can't believe I can't hold her and see her. I miss you all so much! She is truly beautiful and I can tell that she is well loved but remind her that her aunt Deanna loves her too! By the way did you ever get the package we sent you? Let me know
