Talking herself to sleep!

Yesterday we went shopping in Gatlinburg and on the way home Izzy talked herself right to sleep! Luckily the camera was nearby...even though her Mama was a little slow...it was going on for quite a while before we caught it on tape!

Is it Christmas already???

Izzy managed to army crawl her way backwards into the Christmas tree! The presents look so much more fun than her toys!

Is this one for me?

Can I have just one please????

What a week!

Thanksgiving week was full of fun! We spent the whole week in WV with Pop and Grandma! The week was full of visiting family, shopping, and lots of fun! Some of the weeks highlights were...going to Harrisonburg with Grandma, a huge Thanksgiving dinner with almost 70 people, a fun visit from Uncle Eric and Aunt Krystal, and even a trip to the doctor with ear infections in both ears! A busy busy week! Here are a few pics from the week! We can't wait to head back to WV for Christmas break! I wonder what is going on in this crazy place?

I loved laughing and blowing bubbles at my Aunt Krystal!

Pop was lots of fun to play with...even at 5:30 in the morning! :)

With Uncle Eric, we can just be thankful it wasn't beer!

I loved snuggling with my Grandma!

Lots of fun "driving" Great Great Grammy Bowers around!

It's not Thanksgiving without some mashed potatoes!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Playoffs here we come!!

The Bulldogs have made it to the playoffs! Yesterday was the last game of the regular season and Union won big! They are now 9-2 and ranked 11th in the nation! WOW! Isabella and I went out for a little bit, it was a cold and rainy day! No fun for us! We spent most of the time in the Student Center. But Izzy was still happy to cheer on her Papa! Now we go to Indiana on Saturday to play St. Francis! Good luck Bulldogs!

Izzy before the game getting ready to cheer the bulldogs on!

So bundled up, the only thing moving was her eyeballs!

Finally a smile! :)

We took some more Fall pics today and we finally got a couple of smiles!

Happy Fall and Happy 7 mos!

Isabella is 7 months old today! YIKES! Time is flying by! We decided to go out today and take some cute fall pics! However, Izzy had ideas of her own! She refused to smile when the camera was on her...she would only smile when we were holding her and put the camera down! Guess that is just her way of showing us that she is the boss! :)

Licking my lips is better than smiling!

The closest we got to a smile with the camera on! :)

Trick or Treat!

Izzy had her first day of Trick or Treating tonight. She got to go to Dewayne and Brittnay's (friends of Mama's) for her first treats! Then we came home and she helped Mama hand out candy. I think she was tired of being Piglet, so we decided to go with another fitting prop! :)

Happy Halloween!

Yesterday was Izzy's first Halloween party at Daycare! She had a great time being Piglet, which I think was quite fitting! :)

Here she is just cruising around....

Playing with her friends....

with "Auntie" Lilly...

We were there in spirit....

So we were going to go to Michigan to watch the Wolverines in action this weekend, but ended up not going...but that doesn't mean we weren't there in spirit! Izzy cheered Uncle Eric on in style!

She is looking a bit confused and probably wondering why her crazy momma has put her winter hat on her in the house! :)

I'm a big girl now....

Izzy was quite excited today to get to go shopping like a big girl! She thought it was funny and laughed and kicked her feet the whole time! She will be a professional shopper before we know it!

YUM YUM YUM!

Isabella has decided she doesn't need veggies anymore...

she found something even yummier!

Bad Hair Day!

Izzy woke up this morning after a hard 10 hours of sleep with an interesting hairdo! It's not easy sleeping like a baby!!

Orange Out Weekend!

This weekend was the Battle for the Brass Lantern. (aka game against Cumberlands, our biggest rival!) It was also the "Orange Out" so we all came ready to support the bulldogs! Pop, Grandma and Grammy Ruth even came in for the game...or really to see Isabella, but we'll let Marco think it was for the game! :)
Here is Mommy and Izzy before the game! All smiles then...

A little snack during the game with Pop!
Cheering on Union...Go Bulldogs!

Here is what Izzy thinks about our first loss! Boo!!!

But that's ok, I'm still happy...

Izzy with the two people who like to spoil her the most!

Unfortunately it was not a great football weekend for anyone in the Smith/Knorr family! Union had it's first loss of the season and Uncle Eric didn't have a great weekend either! But that is ok, Izzy keeps cheering them both on! And hopefully will get to show her Michigan spirit in a couple weekends!

6 months old already!!!!!

Isabella is 6 months old today! Can you believe how fast time flies! Here are some random pics from her 6 month birthday! :) And one from yesterday dressed up for the doctor...loving the hat! :)

Georgetown who?

Izzy had a great time at the game on Saturday! She cheered on the bulldogs as they beat Georgetown. She was not to impressed with them as you can see! :) The bulldogs are now 4-0! So Daddy is very happy!

Who is that pretty baby???

Izzy had a good time playing and checking herself out yesterday!

I'm a big girl now!

Yesterday was a very exciting day! Isabella is sitting up all by herself now! (of course she needs help getting there...but that's ok!)

Isabella's First Football Game!

Izzy with Grandma!
Snoozing....what a pretty bow! (Daddy hates it! haha)

The whole family after the game....

Yesterday was Marco's first home football game and Izzy's first football game of the season! It was soooo hot, in the 90's the whole day! But Izzy did great the whole time! Grandma, Pop and Grammy Ruth came to see Izzy all dressed up for the big day! :) It was a good day, and the bulldogs won and are now 2-0! Go Bulldogs!
