I think Baxie has the right idea, he likes to rock out rose colored glasses with a distinct style and calmness (Izzy placed them on his face like this). The true definition of looking through rose colored glasses is to look with: an unduly cheerful, optimistic, or favorable view of things. Baxie likes to chill out to this song when he wears his glasses, hope you enjoy it too - click on the Izzy and Bax link below in your e-mail so you can view the video!
The earlier you save the more you will have just because of the "power of time" or the “time value of money” as it is often called in financial circles. I can't say that I started "stashing" money away at the age two, but at the age 32, I love stashing savings bonds, c.d.s, gift certificates and cash. There will always be a rainy day in your future. And it is not certain when that day will happen. When that day does come that you are low on funds, your "stash" can and will weather you through that rough storm.
Bob started a little funzie with Izzy when he comes home from work by letting her empty his pockets. 9 times out of 10, there is change....whether it be pennies, dimes, nickels or quarters. She is fascinated by the weight, the different colors and feel of money. After a couple of weeks of playing with daddy's change - I thought - we should start educating her on the value of saving. Or as I like to call it - STASHING! Izzy gets excited and looks forward to filling her DUCKY piggy bank. It is a daily FUNZIE and hopefully saving will become a HABIT for her.
Grandma Chug and Grandpa Dale bought Izzy busy a Donald Duck bunny. At first, she didn't quite know what to think of him. Take a look at this video and see what a couple days of warming up does....
Izzy's first time having a sucker. What a great picture. I love the upclose picture of the little finger. I think small hands and feet are so cute. Especially when they are little, they are so cute. But then again, who am I trying to kid. I think even a hand or foot print from an adult is unique. Izzy had the opportunity of visiting with her Aunt Dawn this weekend and the "piggies", however she could not help saying "Sydney" "Sydney." Isabella talks about Sydney every other day and what a magical experience it is when they play together. Aunt Dawn got an opportunity to love up on her girl in between her visit with Grandma Betty. What's new with Izzy? She received her Easter present early from mom and dad and received a new chair AND a princess mobile. She loves it just as much as her tea set. Pretty soon, I am going to camp out on the roof with the toys that are taking over our casa.
