Well another month has past and that means Isabelle is now 10 months old. She's growing like crazy and learning a ton. I know everyone thinks their babies are smart but seriously Isabelle is SO SMART! She can blows kisses, and tells everyone she sees "hi". She now has 3 teeth on top and 2 on the bottom. She's been walking for a month now but she really wants to run (She's always trying to keep up with her cousins). One of our favorite things to do is watch Isabelle dance. Her favorite song is "All the Single Ladies" and she even sings along with it, by singing the "oh oh oh" part. Its so fun to watch her learn and discover new things. She truly is the best thing ever and the biggest blessing we've ever had.
A few weeks ago Jason and I along with our friends, Slyler and Hilary, went to the iFly and FlowRider in Ogden. The iFly is a giant wind tunnel that's used to train sky divers. We each got to spend 2 minutes in there in one minute segments. I know 2 one minute sessions doesn't sound very long but trust me it actually seems like forever. I found it very difficult to relax my first time in the tunnel. I was squeezing my butt-cheeks together so tight my butt muscles hurt for a week. The second time went much better. Jason and I "flew" practically the whole time and really enjoyed it. I think we'll definitely go back one day.
Isn't the clothing pretty?
The FlowRider is an inside man made wave that you can surf on. Let me tell you, I sucked! The longest time I stayed up was about 2 seconds. Jason actually did pretty well, He at least got up and rode the wave for a few seconds. You know the one thing that I thought was weird about the FlowRider is there was no instruction on how to do it. They kind of just throw you in there. Lucky for us there was a very nice pro-surfer who was more than helpful. If it weren't for him we wouldn't have had any clue on how to ride the wave (not that I know now). It was fun experience and its really to bad we don't have one out this way so we can get more practice.
Now unfortunately for the bad news. last Friday Jason was let go from his job. Apparently the slow season is upon us and there wasn't enough work to go around. What do you say other than It Sucks! It sucks that they let him go so close to the holidays and with no warning. I know that something will turn up and we're surprisingly optimistic about the whole thing. We're doing everything we can to stay hopeful that some other job will come up quick. We're keeping our fingers crossed that the airlines start their big hiring boom soon. Please keep us in your prayers as this is a crazy time for us. We know we're better off then a lot of people and we're counting our blessing. We're just hoping a job comes along soon, if you hear of any job openings let us know. For now Jason's a stay at home dad and he's enjoying the time with Isabelle. I kind of like that he's home with her, to bad we cant afford for him to do that forever.
On a happier note I realized I never blogged about Halloween. Since this Halloween is my favorite holiday and it was Isabelle's first I think I should at least include a picture of her in her Halloween costume. She looked so cute as Tinker Bell. She had matching sparkly green shoes that squeaked when she walked in them. She was the cutest little fairy ever. It was way to cold outside to do any real treat or treating. We did go to my grandmas house and let Isabelle trick or treat with my cousins and nephews but after 5 houses it was to cold to keep her out. She was extremely excited to see people put candy in her little bag. She carried her little bag around so proud. Halloween is so much better when you have a kid to take treat or treating. I cant wait for next year, Hopefully the weather is better.
