Isabelle Dances for the first time!

Isabelle found her groove for the first time today. Mama was singing and she just started dancing. It was the cutest thing Dee Dee and I ever saw! We also got it on video tape for all to see. She reminded us of the movie The Jerk, where Steve Martin finds his groove and says "I've got it mama, I've got it!"

Belle had spaghetti for dinner last night. She had tried it once before and did not like it so we thought we would try again. As you can see, she had different feelings about it this time! She loved it! Boy was she a mess afterward. So was mommy's floor! We decided to strip her down and let her have a ball. We then immediately put her in the bathtub afterward! We will have spaghetti again very soon!

Lassiter's Go Creeksidin'

The Lassiter's went to the Creekside Blues and Jazz festival today. As you can tell by the picture it has been a pretty rough day. We ate Smackey's ribs (best in 10 counties) and had lemon shake-ups and ice-cream.

We arrived early to try to beat the heat and the mob. The blues and jazz music hadn't really fired up yet, so we parked in the shade by the community stage. They have all kinds of music there; 50's and 70's music etc. We had a good relaxing time and got lots of goodies. They always have these booths with bunches of giveaways.

Ahhhh...to relax

Teynor and Eddie See Red

Mutt and Jeff went to the Reds game last weekend to see the cellar dwellar Reds play the supposed better team, the Indians. It was pitcher's duel as I predicted, as the game went 12 innings 0 - 0, until finally the Reds scored and put the game out of its misery.

The Reds took 2 out of 3 from the Indians who must have been embarrassed by the whole thing. Me and Teynor had a great time, even if the guy taking our picture wanted to beat me up (i won't go into that).

It was a great time, and thus concludes my Reds rooting for the year. Go Braves!!

Everyday when Eddie gets home Belle runs to the door to greet his...... lunchbox! Instead of jumping into Daddy's arms, she looks around him to see if he packed his lunch that day. She is happy to see her Dee Dee but her curiosity of what Dee Dee has in his lunch box that day takes over her! If he did not pack his lunch that day, she is very disapointed!

DAM !!

The Lassiter's went to Hoover Dam today and took a long walk across the dam to the Hoover park we've never been to. They have a disc golf course there that looks interesting. People there playing golf with frisbees.

It was a gorgeous day about 75 degrees and no humidity. After walking and going to downtown Westerville, we ate at the Hoover Grill that overlooks the water. We filled our bellies and enjoyed the scenery.

Tomorrow is supposed to be another gorgeous day, in which me and Teynor head to the Queen City to watch the Dreds play the Injuns. We should have a great time, and of course, the Dreds will win somehow.

We are good little girls!

Belle and Kyrie had another trip to the Columbus Zoo today with their mommies. The weather was beautiful! This time we decided to visit some of the exhibits that we missed the last time we were there. We saw the elephants, rhinos, and the largest python in captivity! After all of these years visiting the Columbus Zoo, since I was a small child, I finally saw Jack Hanna! It was just for a brief moment, but was still pretty cool! They are remodeling the Zoo and are supposed to be finished by the Spring of 2008. We saw the plans today and it looks like it is going to be pretty neat. Let's just hope the prices do not sky rocket!

Belle Adds Words to her vocabulary

Her latest words are:

• daisey
• uh huh
• dee dee
• e-i-e-i (no 'o' yet)
  

She loves copying what you say when she can. Sometimes it's jibberish but sometimes it is plain as day. Any cloth item you hand Belle she will put it right on top of her head, as you can see in the picture.

Robin and Belle are going to the zoo tomorrow with her mom friends. Robin is very relaxed tonight as she went and got her Mother's Day massage tonight. She had the works.

Belle is doing good. Walking and talking and in to everything. I took her to the park tonight while Robin was at the spa. I get in the middle of this great big grassy area, and let her go wild. She walks everywhere, and of course wants to walk on the asphalt instead of the grass. Go figure. She heard the frogs in the pond tonight and made comments about them. I told her they were her frog friends. Robin isn't so sure.
