Faces!

Oh the Faces of my son!

His smile will melt me at a moments notice. Today a friend mentioned the same thing about his eye...those yummy chocolate brown eyes, just like his daddy!

This is his "Smile" picture - hmmm???

TWO!

My Baby is TWO!!!!

Look at that determination!!! He had so much fun blowing out those candles!
Happy Birthday Baby!

Sprinkler

I think he was having fun...don't you!?

My mom and dad (Pops and Gigi) spent the day with Isaac today. They always have so much fun! I can hear him squealing with joy! I love him so much!

Spray Park

We went to Port Neches Park - Spray Park this evening! Isaac wasn't too sure of the place the first time we went, but today he took off and had a blast. I think he was so brave because Shelby (our friends daughter) was with him. He also became a little heart breaker today...a little girl (and her older sister) followed him all over the place trying to hold his hand and "be his friend" but he just kept going opposite directions and saying "no!" It was soo funny! Anyways, enjoy the slide show!

Happy Father's Day!

Isaac's is becoming quite an artist!
Thank you Shannon for showing me washable markers!


Look what I did!

Isaac's Father's Day Card to Sal!

I went to www.fisherprice.com and got these great printable/color page cards!
Great project for kids! There are several different celebration cards! Check it out!

What's Wrong...

With This Picture???
(Look closely to the top left)


Someone didn't want his diaper on anymore and had to pee!
OMG! Boys will be boys!

My Baby's Got Rhythm!

Our friends Zach and Cheri and their adorable son Caleb came and stayed with us for a few days. Isaac and Caleb enjoyed playing with each other and rocking out with the Fridge DJ! Isaac gets his moves from his daddy!

Hey Stranger!

So We've Been MIA lately, in the blog world at least! Things have been great, I've been staying home with Isaac for three almost four months now and it has been amazing! It hasn't been all play dates though! I subbed for a the last part of the school year and went back to school - to get my teaching certification!

I've made some really great friends, we refer to ourselves as the "circle of trust" heehee! We've created a bit of a support group as we whiz through this program. One thing I've noticed with us is there is no competition (maybe a little when it comes to scores on tests but thats it), there is no cattiness, there is a quiet sense of security and encouragement. We lift eachother up when one of us is down, discouraged or freaked out. So to my Cirlce of Trust - You Guys Are Awesome!

With my classes comes lots of tests....lots, tests you actually have to pay $$$ to take! WHAT!?!? I have to take 3 to get my certification in Early Childhood (EC) - 4th Grade (two tests), and Special Ed EC-12. I've taken one and have 2 to go...but the good news is....


I PASSED my content test!! WOOOHOOO! I made a 275 out of 300!! What does this mean?? I can apply for jobs now, because I am "Highly Qualified" to teach in Texas!!! Go Me!!

Along with school we've been busy playing outside (when it's cool enough) and Isaac is growing like a weed! Stay tuned lots is coming!

YUMMY!

One Word....

YUM!


I know I am partial, I'm his momma,
but those eyes they could (they DO) melt me!

Better view from the Tractor

So a few months ago I mentioned that we had a climber...well a few weeks ago he took it to a whole new level.

That's right, he pulled his tractor onto the chair and watched cartoons while sitting on the deer.
100% Boy without a doubt!

In Daddy's Shoes

He actually walked around a little before tumbling to the ground! He has this fascination with Sal's shoes. He is also learning how to put on and take off his own shoes. He's growing so fast! I am sooo thankful to be able to spend these months with him, I am so blessed.

Behind the Camera...

Isaac loves my little digital camera.
He is fascinated by the buttons, the fact that he can see himself (in the viewing part),
and that he can see others (while in camera mode).

He had my camera one evening while we were driving home and this is what he caught..
think there could be some potential!?

Milk...

It does Isaac good!

He loves his milk!

My Boy!

He's growing up so fast!
And his personality is developing daily!



I LOVE him soo much!
I love EVERYthing about him!
He Cracks me up!

Sewing Projects!

I've been wanting to learn to sew and I had mentioned I wanted a sewing machine, and I got one for my birthday! (Katie you inspired me to pursue this, I've always wanted to learn but didn't have the guts!) So I sat down last Wednesday (while Isaac took a nap) and gave it a try. Of course I had NO IDEA how to wind a bobbin or thread the machine, so I tried to load the informational DVD on my lap top (but it didn't work) so I had to do it the old fashioned way...read and do EEEEK! I'm not exactly a read and learn kindof person, I learn better if you show me.

Here I go....

Anyways, I wanted to make a "mom bag" for my diaper bag - since I lose all of my stuff in Isaac's diaper bag no matter how organized I try to be. So with two kinds of fabric, buttons and ribbon I set out to create my first project...what do you think? (It's big enough for my wallet, camera and little things like chap stick, keys and phone)

Yes that's a pocket!

Today (Wednesday again!) I start class for my teaching certification...and I wanted to make something I could keep my pens in - considering I always lose them no matter how big or small my purse is - something cuter then a pencil pouch - so again during Isaac's nap, I created this modern pencil pouch! How cute is this!!?!?

**Don't be discouraged or intimidated if you want to try something new, it is so worth it when you discover that you're good at what you've always wanted to do!**

Aquarium

Sal and I took Isaac to the Aquarium in a few weeks ago. It was so much fun (crowded but fun) and Isaac enjoyed seeing everything. While we were at the penguin exhibit, Isaac was standing with his nose pressed to the glass and a penguin swam right up to him - beak to nose - and stared at him for about 10 seconds! It was crazy! We were so surprised we didn't grab our camera! Enjoy the slide show!

A boy and his Daddy

Isaac loves loves his daddy, even though it looks the total opposite in the first two pictures!

NO THANK YOU!

Watching TV

I'm Gonna Gettcha!

Easter Basket

Our Friend, Meagan, made amazing Easter Basket and Goodie Tray's this year. So we ordered a boy's basket -OH MY GOODNESS! It is the cutest thing I have EVER seen! And of course I couldn't wait to give it to Isaac (he was sitting on the couch when she came over with it) so I let him look through it! Enjoy the slide show!!!

Weeeee!

Isaac got this great slide from Pops and Gigi for Christmas and he has learned how to climb up the stairs but he also tries to climb up the slide itself...enjoy the video! Listen how he says "Yeah" with me! Too Cute!!!

SPOONS!

Isaac is teething (ugh!)
And he finds the funniest things to gnaw on - his new favorite chew toy...
a SPOON.


He has an "adult" spoon in his mouth and his spoon in the other hand

Trying to get what's on the spoon off

I love his face!

GRRRR!
