14 months

Isaac turned 14 months on Saturday.  Our little guy is still changing so much by the day – he’s become such a little ham, such a wild little thing, full of energy and fun. He’s really exploded with the sign language and some new words lately.  He’ll mimic pretty much anything you say, if you…

Communicating with the baby

Isaac is talking!  Well, sort of. His favorite word of the moment is “tee-tat” (kitty cat).  Also high on the list is “woof” (anytime he sees a dog or hears barking).  And of course he knows “Mama” and “Dada”, but still doesn’t like to call us that much yet.  He said “ball” today,and he tries…

13 months!

My sweet baby boy – you are 13 months old.  After you hit one year, time seems to be slowing down just a tad bit.  Well, maybe not slowing down, but I don’t feel the same panic of time passing us by too quickly as I did before.  I was dreading that one year mark,…

more birthday pics

Isaac’s actual birthday was a bit rainy, so we headed to the mall for a special treat for the birthday boy – a train ride! First, we had lunch at Nando’s Peri Peri: Then, it was train time! That evening, we had a birthday dinner for the little guy, with his first ever dessert on…

Birthday party

Isaac slept in on the day of his party, waking up at 9:15! As I brought him downstairs, he was rubbing sleep out of his eyes, then staring in amazement and wonder at all of the colorful decorations Mom and I had put up the night before. He pointed and ooh’ed and aah’ed with the…

My baby turns 1

My dear sweet baby boy, You are ONE.  You are all of sudden looking more like a little boy and less like a baby every day.  I’m pretty sure I’m going to cry on Friday when I take you for your first haircut.  I’m pretty sure that will push you over the edge into toddlerhood.…

Isaac’s first Easter

We had beautiful weather for Easter.  Perfect weather for a family photo!  Out of about a hundred tries, we got ONE where all three of us were looking at the camera.  Whew, it is a lot harder to get Isaac to look at the camera than it used to be.  Forget about smiling, lol. I…

11 months!

Our little man turned 11 months on the 23rd.  I can’t believe we’re so close to one year already! Here’s the rundown of what he’s doing lately: -He stood up!  All by himself, with nothing to pull himself up.  We were playing out on the grass, and he just pushed himself up to standing and…

10 months!

My little man turned 10 months old on Thursday.  He is getting to be such a big boy! He’s talking up a storm now.  He says Mama and Dada, but still not connecting those sounds to us, I don’t think (although he tends to say Mama when he’s upset, so who knows).  His favorite word…
