I know it seems as if I have disappeared

It may look like he is placing an Easter egg in his basket, but don't let him fool you. He's actually taking one out. He thinks that they are little balls instead of eggs, so he just wanted to toss them.
Isaak in action===picking up an Easter Egg. He threw this one in the water that you can see in the upper part of the picture.

Where to even begin? This last week kind was kind of the stinkies. Okay it was absolutely stinky. Phew. I wonder do I even want to blog about it? Maybe I don't. But I can tell you that Isaak got sick again. So his earaches came back and we had some awesome screaming adventures in the car. I don't know if you have ever had an inner earache, but any time the pressure changes it really hurts. Cory had an inner earache when we were in Hawaii almost a couple of years ago and even if we drove over a small bump he cried out in pain, so I imagine that poor little Isaak is miserable. We've tried Chiropractors, homeopathic ideas, and still he has earaches. We have come to our last resort. THE TUBES!!! I've been trying to avoid them. I've been running from them, but at this point they seem inevitable. We went to an ENT and he said that Isaak could barely hear. He said for him it was like wearing foam ear plugs all the time, which is why he isn't talking much. So he needs to get tubes so he can hear me telling him no better. I feel like I tell him no at least two times every five minutes. Either he's trying to put something in the toilet, in his mouth or in an outlet. He has recently discovered that he has a nostril. He likes to stick his finger in that there hole. He has also learned how to take off his diaper===which also leads to me saying No Isaak no no no!

On Saturday I decided that I wanted to lock my wallet in my glove box....well my glove box didn't want to lock so instead I twisted my key into two lovely little spiral pieces. We were about 45 minutes from home. We had to figure out a way to get into our house and get a spare. We did it, but it sure was a pain. Maybe if I didn't have such superhero strength that key wouldn't have broken. I have been working out. In any case this last week was stinky. I'm not even going to go into all the details. I'm sick now too. I caught Isaak's cold and either I sound like a squeaky toy or a man. My voice is all crazy. I was going to post of video, but I've tried twice and it's just not downloading maybe some other time. I'm sad it won't work because it was one of those moments that just make the sun seem brighter.

Hopefully things are better now! My older sister had tubes when she was a baby and she survived!! I hope it helps the problem.

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...
