Make yourself comfy....

Ok, ok.......I know it's been a LONG time since I've posted anything. The truth is, between my new job and the holidays coming up, my spare time has been cut drastically. I have a lot of photos with this one and several updates so we can be completely caught up on things.

First, my Mom came to visit the first weekend in November. Isaac was very glad to see Grandma and as you can tell from the picture below, they had a big time playing. We're always glad to have grandparents come and visit!!!



This is a shot of Isaac on the rhino. He absolutely loves riding this thing and gets on it any chance he has. Even with it being cold out, Darren will let him ride from the garage onto the trailer, which is where this shot was taken. As you can tell, he's very happy to be there!!


This next one was taken after coming in from riding the rhino. I was pretty excited to get him looking at the camera, especially with a smile!! He's to the point now where if he sees me with a camera, he will completely ignore me until I put the camera down. I'm hoping he gets out of this phase very soon!!



This one was taken at Grandma's house over the Thanksgiving weekend. Me and Isaac went to Carthage for the weekend while Daddy stayed home and spent his time in the deer woods. Poor little Isaac still doesn't have very much hair at all, but we're slowly making some progress!!!



I took this next one at my grandmother's house after church that Sunday. This was the picture I had wanted to put on our Christmas cards, but Darren didn't like the outfit (he said it was too babyish) so I let him pick out the photo, which is how we ended up with a rhino photo on our cards!!


I'm afraid little Isaac is going to have a thing for shoes, just like his Daddy. If he sees a pair anywhere on the floor, he puts them on and tries to walk in them. He really likes Mommy's shoes that go "click-clack" when he walks on the hardwood. These pictures were just too cute not to post!!




I'm also afraid we have recently gotten into a bad habit. It started when Isaac was sick and he would wake up in the middle of the night. Me, being the softie that I am, couldn't stand to let my sick baby cry it out in his room so I would just put him in our bed. Well, it seems Isaac has picked up on this and even though he is now completely well (Halleighlujah!!!!), he still wakes at night and instead of making him stay in his room and losing sleep while he cries, I just put him in our bed. I love cuddling with him, but he tosses and turns so much in his sleep that none of us end up sleeping well except for him!! It's a habit we will soon have to break and I dread it so bad, but I know we will all be better off when we do. If you have any suggestions on doing this as smoothly as possible, please share!!! I took this shot one morning right before I had to get him up. Doesn't he look nice and comfy???


This is another new trick of Isaac's and I'm so glad that I got it captured in a photo. You can ask Isaac to show you his teeth, and this is what he does.....




Isn't that just the cutest?????



We took this one at his MiMi and PawPaw's house in front of one of their trees. He was trying to show his teeth in this one too, Mommy just wasn't fast enough with the camera.




This one was taken over the weekend at his MiMi and PawPaw's house too. I can't believe how big my little guy is getting!!


This one was taken Sunday before church and I can't believe how grown up he looks!!!

That's all that I have for now. We are going to my Dad's (PaPa's) this weekend to do Christmas so I'll try and update first part of next week with some more photos. This will be a big Christmas for Isaac since last year he really didn't have a clue what was going on. Also, our sitter, Ms. Michelle has started a blog for the daycare so you family and friends out there can keep up with us that way too. Her site is http://littlepeopleplaycare.blogspot.com so you'll have to check it out.

Jason would not let me dress Ethan in any of them outfits either. He would say the same thing. He is sooo cute I love his little smile. The one where he is a sleep that is how we know Ethan is getting really tired because he always puts his arms behind his head like that. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!!
