This weekend we went to Addison, TX for Oktoberfest. We try to go every year. There's lots of great German food, music, rides, games, arts & crafts and Beer! This year we met up with Todd who is one of Mike's old co-workers and two of his kids. A good time was had by all!

Here the girls took a dip in the fountain. Isabella just laughed and laughed.

Isabella loved taking in all the sights, sounds and smells.

Mike enjoying some German fare - pork chop, sausage, sauerkraut and potato salad, beer, beer, beer. Did I mention the beer?

Isabella checking out the guide and seeing what's on tap for today at Oktoberfest

No, she really didn't get to sample the beer. It's just a neat picture.

What's going on? Why am I here?

Does this mean I get presents? Yay!

Happy 1/2 Birthday to me!

Daycare

Well, Isabella started her first full day of daycare yesterday. She did about half a day on Friday when my mom flew home. We got a call from our daycare on Monday saying that they'd had a fire and so they were moving the kids to their other two facilities. Luckily no one was at there at the time. It was very hard for me to leave her at daycare yesterday. I went to see her on my lunch hour and fed her and played with her a bit. She seemed to be okay, but was somewhat miserable by the end of the day. Hopefully it will get better for all of us after the initial transition phase.

Isabella's starting to hold her own bottle. She's pretty co-ordinated.
