Travels with Isabelle & Sebastian

Since my last post, Isabelle’s vocabulary has expanded tremendously. She understands many things now and can hold proper conversations - even bargaining for more tv time, or selecting her choice of tv shows (“I want to watch cartoon, pleeeeeeaaaasssseeee“).

She’s also mommy’s little helper, often offering her assistance by saying “I help you, mommy“.

Other examples:

Q: How are you today?

Isabelle: I’m fine, thank you.

Q: Thank you, baby [for getting us something].

Isabelle: You’re welcome.

If she needs us to repeat what we said earlier, she’d say: I beg your pardon?

I got her to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Barney’s theme song, and One Two Buckle My Shoe a few weeks ago when she was in a good mood, and recorded them into my mobile phone. This way I won’t miss her too much when traveling away from home.

Before I wrap up this post, we’re happy to announce we’re expecting baby no 2 later this year.
