The "I want my doll" series

As Isabel is learning to crawl, we've been putting things she likes a few inches out of her reach so she has to go mobile to get them. Sometimes she slithers, sometimes she rolls, and other times she tacks back and forth at 20 degree angles. In this series of photos she's reaching for her doll, and when she gets there, she does what she does with everything these days...puts it in her mouth. The quality of the photos isn't that great, but it tells a good story.

Greetings from Peru

Give me my squash - now!

We've been introducing all sorts of new foods to Isabel over the past month. With the dearth of jarred baby food in Peru, we've been making some of our own including "zapallo" - yellow squash. Isabel really likes the zapallo, as you can see from this photo where she's demanding more - now! She's sort of like her mommy that way...a little cranky when she's hungry.
