Progress of Our 20 month old Isabelle

Our little baby turned 20 months old last 2 days. 24 months aka 2 years old is like knocking on the door already while it still feels like yesterday that she was an infant, just born, fragile and tiny. Now, I can really relate to how parents feel when they say their children (no matter how grown up) will always be their little babies in their hearts.

It is the 2^nd week of the new year and it's time for me to update Isabelle’s progress since my last post. She has grown so much, so fast, maybe too fast. She is learning very fast too and has even mastered a few songs.
