Isaac turns 2!!!

Facts about Isaac:

Heigth: 97th percentile

Weight: 75th percentile

Head Circumfrance: 90th percentile

He is very polite saying “please” “thank you” and “Sorry mom” on a regular bases.

He sleeps through the night for the most part.

Every day he spits out new words and speaks in sentences instead of one word phrases, some of my favorites:

“Let’s go”

“I’m stuck”

“look, it’s a…”

“I see it.”

“Where are you”

"Daddy's home!"

And my very favorite:“I hold you mommy, I hold you.”

He is getting over his separation anxiety. When I leave for work he stands at the back door, waving bye, bye, and blows me kisses and says, “bye, bye mommy… bye, bye mommy... c-ya” Until he doesn’t see my car.

Thanks to his motivation and curiosity he is my little helper around the house. He likes to do the dishes, clean up spills, vacuum, and put clothes in and out of the washer and drier.

He can get into the car seat by himself and buckle himself half way in.

He is very loving, constantly giving out hugs and kisses, and he likes to hold hands.

He is obsessed with washing his hands!

His favorite toys are trains and cars

He tries really hard to share his toys.

I love you son!! I feel so blessed that you chose to be a part of our family. We learn love, patience and kindness from you every day.



After many cake mix boxes, the choo, choo train cake didn't turn out so bad. We had a small party for Isaac on his b-day and ate cake and icecream. It was loads of fun!


























Dewayne and I got him this little tricycle. I'm sure it will be well worn before summer time if we get our basement finished soon.
Abu and Papa's present, "Lucky." Isaac was in toyland Heaven!

Time for a twin bed, don't ya think?

After putting Isaac down for a nap in his crib I came to check on him an hour later and this is what I found. I personally think the crib is much more comfortable.

Halloween 2009

Leave it up to moms to document important events! I had to steal these first 2 photos from my sisters blog. I had my own adventures at work that night: 3 Pediatric codes with one death, and quite a few belligerent drunks. It was a memorable night!

We've recently started a new tradition of spending Halloween at my sister, Elisa's, house every year. It's the best. Abu makes polenta, and Elisa makes her famous potato soup. After the dads take the kids trick-or-treating we all chow down on yummy food!
Is he not the cutest? Thanks for letting him borrow the Giraffe costume, Sandee! It was hard to rip the two of them apart. Isaac loooooved identifying Giraffe's facial features!


Market Star (Dewayne's work) had a Halloween party for employees and their family members.
