isabel (as we know her)

i think we all have a touch of "home self" versus "out in public self".  you know what i'm talking about, don't you?  take me for example.  i walk around our house all day long with rubbie* in my hand, but i wouldn't dare go to church or stroll around the mall with it.  (*i'm still working up the courage to share rubbie with you, internet readers.)  and i love throwing on some jeans, tossing my hair in a ponytail, and hanging out around the house, but i would never think of going out in public looking like such a mess.

wait.  that's how i've left my house almost every single day for the last five years.  anyway, you get the picture. 

well izzy has a "home personality" and an "out in public personality".  when we leave our house, she changes from a bit of a goofball to little miss stoic.  really, unless she's in a place where feels completely at home, you'll be hard-pressed to even get her to crack a smile.  so lest any of you mistakenly think poor isabel doesn't have much of a fun side, here are a few photos i snapped of her this weekend.

my favorite photo came when she proceeded to play one of her favorite games -- "i'm a giant" -- with the goggles on.  is this supposed to be some sort of construction monster?

i suppose this is the wacky side of izzy.  stay tuned for the sweet.  ;-)
