Remembering Grandma Bond

Grandma Bond lost her battle with Cancer on Tuesday, March 27, 2007. This picture was taken on March 19th when Connie, Jordan, Isabel and I all went out to see her. She was dressed in her jean shorts, and t-shirt. It reminded me of all the times she would sit by the sliding glass door at the lake and swat flies with the fly swatter. She looked great, however not to long after she passed from us. She will truly be missed her by her family and friends.

Could not help myself...

I had to see if "the dress" still fit her. It was a tight squeeze but we got it on. I got a few good pictures of her till she go sick of sitting there and started to cry.

Isabel is crawling!!!

I thought the day would never come, but it is official...she is now a crawler. Here is a picture of her in her "tent" she can actually craw inside (she has a little problem getting back out), but she likes to play inside. Isabel is getting so big...in less than three months it will be her birthday.

Happy Baby - NOT!!! - Sick baby update

Not all days are a piece of cake around the Bond house. Isabel was not happy about something, but for the life of me I can't remember what that was.

Isabel just got a clean bill of health today from Dr. V. She was sick the week of President's Day with a fever that lasted about 5 days. The doctor stated on Monday that she probably just had a virus or was teething (since I noticed two more teeth at the doctors office) and it would run its course. She seemed to get better that week but by Friday she was crying all day and seemed to be in pain about something. At about 5:30 that evening Chad called me at work and said I'd better get home because Isabel had green stuff coming out of her ear. We immediately called the doctor and went to Children's Mercy Urgent Care. Poor baby had a ruptured ear drum and an infection in the other ear. Needless to say we spent all of that Friday evening at the hospital and then eating dinner and getting prescriptions filled at 11:30 pm (it's really funny to watch who goes into the 24 hours CVS on a Friday night).

All is better now...Happy Birthday to Isabel today, she is nine months old.
