That silly boy loves flowers

I was chatting away on the phone when Isaak came running up to me yelling Mommy-Mommy. He laughed and ran off again. Cory was cleaning the bathroom and decided to put some of my headbands on Isaaks head--well Isaak rearranged them and slipped one into his mouth. He ran around with the headbands on for about twenty minutes. (Tina this is why I started laughing uncontrollably and could barely talk!)

I guess I'll tell the story backwards since my pictures are uploaded backwards and I'm too lazy to try and fix them. We went hiking in AF canyon about a week ago and the wildflowers were amazing! We hiked this little trail along the creek and ended up in a meadow. I promise at one point Isaak was wearing clothes, but that was before we decided to eat our snacks. I don't know what in the world we were thinking about bringing cherries, but we did. Isaak was wearing a yellow polo shirt, so we quickly derobed the little lad so he could enjoy cherries. He was dripping in juice so I got in the stream to just wash him off a bit, but he sat down in the creek. He was soaked, but he loved every second splashing and singing. We didn't bring another diaper with us, so we had to put an end to our lovely stroll. Isaak eating the cherries. He had a little process. Put the entire cherry in his mouth. Chew while all the juices ran down his chest and dobbled unto his diaper, then spit out the pit and sometimes about half of the cherry. I was a little frantic about trying to leave no trace.

The butterfly picture. They were all flitting about in the flowers. Pretty.


Some pictures of the flowers. I wish the camera could have captured the real beauty of the canyon. flowers were springing up all over the place. The entire sides of the mountains were covered in wild daisies and all sorts of other flowers. It was almost magical. You should go before it gets too hot. We tried to go hiking again today, but it didn't turn out to be such a good idea since Cory and I both burned our shoulders when we went swimming on Thursday. We put on the packs and kept saying--ooo---ow--sharp intake of breath. We only lasted about twenty minutes before we turned around and found a shady spot to eat our pudding, goldfish crackers, and rice cakes. A tad bit less messy than cherries!

We miss you guys!
I can't wait until I feel like I can hike again without passing out.

Ummm.... hello?! I hate blogger! It didn't even tell me you updated your blog! I LOVE the headbands. They made me start laughing hysterically. It looks like head gear for braces. I am jealous of your hiking. I need to start liking the outdoors... I think that would work out really nice. lol Keep the super cute photos coming!

I think every scrapbook page you make you should load onto your blog... then we would get more pics and updates!!!!!!!! :)

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...

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...

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...
