Scattered


Little "I" takes his first daring steps into the unknown...okay we didn't really have the camera ready for his first steps, but he took them on Cory's Birthday. Cory was so excited that Isaak actually gave him a Birthday Present--ahhh, I'm sure your heart is melting.

We've had some big changes in January. Mainly Cory's work schedule. It's all crazy, but we are adjusting. We've gone snowshoeing about five times already this year. Isaak gets so bundled up that it reminds me of The Christmas Story when the little boys cries because he can't put his arms down.

Isaak got swimming lessons for Christmas. I laugh hysterically during the lessons. Isaak isn't a cuddly baby, but in the pool he wraps his little arms around my neck and DOESN'T let go!!! He is warming up to the idea though and was less scared this week compared to last week. But I must admit that I love the cuddling. We also bought him some reusable swim diapers. He looks like he's wearing a little speedo and its sooo cute. I know it's crazy to use speedo and cute in the same sentence, but it's true. Isaak definitely has something on the guy that Cory and I saw on our honeymoon in Cancun. He wore a speedo along with his two awesome nipple rings and a belly ring.....Cute isn't crossing your mind is it??? If it is I think that I forgot to mention that he was about 55 years old-orange from tanning and hitting on the spring breakers....

I didn't mention this before, but we had a blast for New Years and made some new traditions. We had all healthy foods to munch on--Jimaca, carrots, clementines, peppers, tortilla chips, salsa, bananas, apples, yogurt for dipping...the food was delicious. I paid two dollars for one of those cheesy New Years Eve Hats thinking that it was totally worth it to see Isaak wearing it. I was sorely disappointed because Isaak hated it, so I got a ton of pictures of him throwing it around. Our new tradition is to go Snowshoeing on New Years Day then to lounge around and watch movies the rest of the day. We watched Star Trek this year, which I loved. And Julie and Julia, which I also loved. A movie I recently watched and definitely did not love was Brothers Bloom.

Lil "I" all bundled up when we went sledding with Cory's Sister which was SUPER fun.
For those that know Isaak doesn't fall asleep anywhere, but he was so tired after all that sledding that while I was pulling his around on the sled he fell right to sleep. He stayed sleeping like this for about two hours. Cute.

Wow, you've been snowshoeing 5 times already? I love that Isaak is getting involved in your guys' hobbies and that he is trying swimming. I can tell he is definitely going to be an adventurous one... well he would have to be since he came from yours and Cory's DNA!
It was really good to see you guys on Cory's birthday.
Oh, I liked The Brothers Bloom. What didn't you like about it?

Oh, YEAH and I almost forgot to mention that Isaak walking is so exciting. I can't help but be excited for you guys when he toddles on over to the camera. He is getting so big!

I love the picture of him asleep in the sled. When something like that never happens it makes it that much more precious.

Isaak is one smart kid to give his daddy such a wonderful gift on his birthday. He is one smart cookie!

Can I just say, I love your little boy. What a cutie!

Oh and when I get to Utah you better let me do the honor of babysitting him. :)

Alas I speak

First of all it was easy to get that Widget of the Baby on, but I have no idea how to get if off. It's not that I don't want to remove it, I just don't know how. I'm not the smartest blogger on the block. I bet there is some button that says remove widget somewhere. So the big day finally arrived-if you want to know as little as possible I suggest that you read no further, but just scroll down and enjoy the pictures. I slept in on Thursday(last week)-it was glorious. I straightened my hair, shaved my legs and just slowly got ready for work. I then decided that it was essential that I pick up baby wipes from Costco. My body must have known that I would be needing them soon. I'm walking around Costco and all of the sudden I pee my pants. I was looking all around for a bathroom, but I couldn't see one anywhere. I thought well it was just a little leak and I know there is a bathroom at target and they are usually pretty clean. So I head over to target and I continue...

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...

Whaaaaat??????

I'm happily brushing my teeth in the bathroom. I'm looking around wondering what else I could be doing while I'm brushing my teeth and I started to think to myself, hmmmm , I wonder what's in toothpaste? I picked up the tube with my free hand and continued brushing. As I was reading the back I noticed a WaRnINg : Do not use for more than four weeks at a time. What? Do not use for more than four weeks? I anticipated reading if you swallow more than what you are brushing your teeth with call poison control. I try to start adding up how long I've been using this toothpaste. Cory didn't like it, so I've been using it solo and it has surely been more than four weeks. Now I don't know what to do with it--do I take a break and come back to it or do I just keep using it? I mean it's been about three months and I still have quite a bit left and nothing seems out of the ordinary yet...But seriously I think that the warning on the toothpaste should at least be...
