Learning how to Ride

Since Isaiah's Papa Bob isn't close by to give Isaiah horsie rides, Dan is showing Isaiah how to take a ride. This is something Dan's dad used to do with him when he was little.

It seems like in this last week Isaiah has grown from a little boy to a little bigger boy. He loves standing up and walking around with one of us. Not only did he get one tooth, but two! It is so crazy how fast he is growing up! (Sorry the photo is blurry!)

8 months

Our little guy is 8 months old today. I never really understood why it was such a big deal for to parents to take note of each month, but now I do. It's just one day, maybe even an hour for some, to reflect on the fact that their little one is not so little anymore. They have accomplished new feats each day and have long surpassed those first few days after birth.

Anyway, I am glad to acknowledge his month-by-month accomplishments. Oh and today marks the first day that we can actually see his first bottom tooth. Fun! Here are some photos from this week.

He is SOOO ready to walk!

I love those cute chubby, I mean Healthy, legs

Stacks and STACKS

Is it just me or does anyone else have a hard time keeping up with loads of laundry during the week. Maybe if I was home more...maybe if I had more desire to fold...maybe if it wasn't so much fun to spend time with your kid....THEN, just maybe, there would be more time for the heaps of laundy to get done.

Dad's little Giant

Peek-a-boo! I see you. I couldn't resist sharing these absolutely adorable photos of myself with all of you. My daddy's hat is really fun to play with. I thought my Aunties and Grandparents would like to see me today!

Coosing with Mama

Last night as I was getting ready for Isaiah to go to bed, I just couldn't lay him in his bed. I held him tight and dreamed of all the things that I hope for his life. This precious little boy is such a joy to me.

Blessing in disguise?

Isaiah has been under the weather this past week with his first cold, so this is how he prefers to sit and relax. However this cold may be a blessing in disguise. Since Isaiah was 2 weeks old he has had a clogged tear duct. But... since he got this cold, it has been slowly, miraculously, clearing up. So, we'll see, if indeed, this is a blessing in disguise.
