I'm loved

The other day I went to meet my Mom for lunch. I had to feed Isaak, so I got there a little early so I could feed him in the parking lot. I've been listening to Christmas Music and thought it would be quite festive if we listened to Christmas music while he was eating. I usually feed him in the backseat because it's more discreet and there is more room. I also need to mention that all growing up my Grandma said, "Always lock your door so no one can get in." I've been terrified of these people that want in my car so I always lock my doors.

Since I wanted festive music I had to leave my keys in the ignition and climb into the backseat, which I did. I'm happily feeding Isaak in the back when I realize I haven't locked the doors! I start to panic what if those people want in now? we are so vulnerable. I better try to reach up front and lock the doors. Then I look over and realize that all the doors are already locked. I start to scratch my head in thought. If I locked the doors when I got out of the car how did I open the back door to get into the back seat??? Still an enigma. I think it was a miracle. Thanks Heavenly Father. I might have had a nervous breakdown had I locked my baby in the car with my keys, while he was hungry.

We also stopped at our first accident the other day. It was the day a couple weeks ago when it actually snowed. We saw a car spin out of control and hit the barrier. I yelled at Cory to get over. We jumped out of the car and both started running to the other car when we realized we probably shouldn't leave Isaak alone in the car on the side of the freeway. Cory told me to run to the car since I knew first aid and have my Wilderness First Responder. I stood shocked and terrified--what if the driver was seriously hurt, dangerous, dead, bleeding, or a myriad of pictures went through my mind. Cory noticed I was scared and showed more courage than me. He ran back to the car and checked on the guy. He was fine. He was scared, but he was okay. Phew. Cory is my hero. He also scrapped all the ice off my car for me when I had to leave early before he went to work. Now he's my super hero.

Awww.. Cory is a good guy.
So were those people hurt at all? It's nice when we can recognize life's little miracles.

the guys car was all smashed up, but he was fine. His airbag went off. He just kept asking, "hey do you guys know what happened??"

I love you guys. I also just thought about if he had a bad enough wound if you would have to take your shirt off as a tuniquette (how do you spell that!?) That joke has still been a good one for years..... love you guys!

You are loved!

The picture of cory and isaak is adorable. Isaak is my hero but Cory is a close second. I looked at your mom's photography blog and noticed some cute cute pictures of you....

I was the first to respond to an automobile accident before... it was very scary and I lucked out because a doctor ran up behind me and he handled the blood and everything else much better then I did. I am glad that those experiences don't happen all too often.

Oh and I am glad that Heavenly Father was watching over you. Having a baby locked in the car is an experience that you should NEVER have... and I hope to NEVER experience that too :) I would probably go crazy and break a window or something. Don't you love the moments when we are reminded of how loved we are?

From me to him

Dear Isaak, Happy Birthday my little guy! It feels like just yesterday that you were literally pulled out to come into this world. Yes literally with forceps around your little head because you accidentally faced the wrong direction or maybe you faced the direction you wanted to. You didn’t seem like you were quite ready to come out because you were just wailing--almost like you were saying, “You know--I was perfectly comfortable in there.” I’ve learned this year that you surely know what you want and you will not stop until you get it. For example when we tried to spend the weekend away from home and you didn't like sleeping in your playpen! You woke up every 1/2 hour to let us know you weren't comfortable. You finally fell asleep around 3am when we put you on the bouncer. Cory slept with his arm around you on the floor so you didn't roll off. You weren’t going to come easy, eh?? I remember pushing and pushing and pushing and thinking this isn’t going how I thought that i...

For the LOVE!!

What a day we had. What a day we had. I get tired again just thinking about it. Cory's car is getting the muffler put back on. I'm a little sad about it because Isaak and I could hear his car coming from over a block away when he was on his way home, but it's also a little embarrassing how loud it is. I'm sure it defied all noise ordinances. In any case, Isaak and I have been getting up a little early to take Cory to work, which is kind of fun because we get to see him more, but before dinner it's not kind of fun. It's kind of stinky because it's a hustle to get everything all put together. Yesterday I had to make dinner at about 3pm so I could get everything in. So back to yesterday. Isaak and I had just rolled our bushy little tails out of bed and both of us were still in pajamas. I was wearing my chacos and one of Cory's jackets and Isaak wanted to bring all of his blankets. Thankfully for some weird reason I threw his tennis shoes into the diaper bag...

Mommified

It's official I've been Mommified. I've seen it happening to others for years and now I've become part of the madness. Don't worry I'm not talking about being Mummified for all my entrails are safely where they should be, but I'm talking more about slime and snot. Yes slime. I was getting ready for bed and I looked down at my Pajama shirt and realized that I had been gooed. I had junk all over the bottom half of my shirt. I had no idea what it was and the most alarming part of this.....I simply shrugged my shoulders and thought well it's dry at least it won't get on my sheets. I slept in a slimy shirt. Example number two--Isaak had a runny nose last week. I had to run into Nordstroms for a second and didn't want to carry Isaak and the diaper bag, so I just took Isaak. As we were strolling into the store I noticed that he had some runny nose goodness. I quickly wiped his snot with my shirt sleeve on the inside. EWWWWW!! I just did what??? Gross Of...
