It seems absurd that her first birthday is already right around the corner! She is doing great - she has even taken some steps on her own, only about 3 or 4 at a time, but it's clear she's getting braver.
She has only had one week so far, but she loves it. She was very sad that she didn't get to go to school today because of the holiday! She entered the program as one of 4 "typically developing peers" in a group of 12 kids. The other 8 have some type of disability or set back. Most are pretty mild, like hearing, speech, etc. with only one obviously physically disabled child in the class. Her friend, Nicholas Rhea, is also in the peer group. They are doing great so far!
They look like such big kids... it seems like just yesterday our little ones were just learning to talk! Time flies!
They also came to Columbus to the zoo (It was Buckeye day)! 
We learned a new trick from them - making a single stroller do double duty!
Izzy started ballet class over the summer and loves it! She's in the fall class, which will last until a recital in the spring. She's got a much larger class now, which is taking some time to adjust to, but she still enjoys seeing Miss Meredith each week.
