Meet Leah Fisher
(this was how to posed when I asked her to smile for the camera)
Leah is the daughter of our dear friends, James and Tina. Leah affectionately refers to myself as Issa since the 'L' is a bit tough for her to pronounce just yet. And she most affectionately refers to Heath as Bubba!! We have absolutely no idea where this name developed from since he has never gone by this name (James believes she is brilliant and recognizes that this is a fitting name since Heath is just an old southern country boy). But ever since she could recognize us, Heath has been Bubba and it's the cutest thing ever!!
As the night progressed, we were able to keep her entertained with some simple activities like sliding across the hardwoods...
and running into Bubba's arms...
After only a couple of runs, she was encouraging "Come Issa" meaning I had to run back and forth down the hallway with her. However, I was not allowed to run into Heath's arms because one time when I tried this she plopped onto the floor and pouted "NO Issa, MY Bubba". Needless to say she's still working on the concept of sharing!
Overall, we had a great time, she was a breeze to entertain and she went right to sleep like a little champ (all due to the wonderful scheduling James and Tina have fostered in her upbringing)! We loved our time spent with little Leah and were pretty proud of our abilities to keep a little one alive and safe for 3 whole hours!
Well at least you learned how to share. That could have been a whole Jerry Springer episode otherwise.
