YEEHAW for new computers

Our new computer arrived and is in working order. The old computer died a few weeks ago as I was uploading 3 months of pictures from our camera. I freaked, of course, thinking I had lost documentation of 3 months of Isaac's little life. But luckily all the pictures were safe!

Sooo...here are some rodeo pictures from our trip to Bay City. Isaac had SO much fun seeing all the animals. He was fascinated by all the events and yelled and hollered the whole time. Thanks Hammy for taking him to his first rodeo!

and they lived happily ever after...

Happy anniversary to my mister! I love you!!!

Happy ♥ Day

yummy to my tummy

Williams-Sonoma always has yummy sounding recipes in their catalogs and I've always wanted to try them out. I finally took the plunge. Their latest catalog has Italian-American recipes and I've made three of them so far. Today I made the bolognese sauce and it is really good. I like it the best out of the three recipes that I tried. Isaac chowed down on it tonight and Scott really enjoyed it too although I only have pictures of Isaac. Try it out it's yummy!

Footprints

Isaac stepped in a puddle and left cute little footprints on our driveway.

sweet cheeks

Isaac will surely kill me one day for this post but I just can't resist. He is so funny at bath time lately. When he's ready (clothes off) we put him down and let him walk to the bathroom. He always pauses at he his doorway like it's the starting line of a race. Then, when he's ready, he will race down the hallway to the bathroom. I think he's just gearing up for the cold tile floor but he gets sooo excited. It's really funny to watch.

warmer weather has arrived

We've had crazy weather this winter! Below freezing for days and then the next week temps in the upper 70s. It was 76 today.


Isaac has had so much fun playing outside this week. I can tell I'm in for a hot summer with him. He loves doing anything outside; swinging, walking, playing in the leaves and riding in his wagon. Yesterday after we came inside to make dinner he cried and cried while pointing the to backdoor. He missed outside.

today's outing

This morning we met some friends at the Children's Museum. They have recently updated the whole place and it is really fun. There is a place especially for little ones like Isaac. It's called the Tot Spot. We had a great time playing and having lunch. Thanks Marla for the free pass.

Isaac loved spinning the flowers.

Isaac and Dylan

Isaac LOVES cows. He's even learned to moo.

it was amazing...

So Isaac and I were out all morning and part of the afternoon. We went to Target (have I ever mentioned how much I ♥ Target) then to lunch and then swung by the grocery store. Ike was a trooper!!! On the way home from our last errand he fell asleep as it was 1/2 hour past his regular nap time. I thought to myself, "oh great, he'll sleep a few minutes in the car and then I won't be able to get him back down for a nap." Especially because as I was strapping him into the car seat I smelled the makings of a dirty diaper. Well, we got home, I unloaded the groceries and our things from Target and Isaac remained asleep. He even stayed asleep as I carried him to the back of the house. I stuck him in the crib because I had drank several glasses of water at lunch, and then came back to change him and put him down. He slept. He slept throughout the whole process. Taking his shoes off, taking his sweater off, changing his diaper, snapping his shirt and overalls back together and putting him back in the crib. He slept! and he's still asleep! It was a first and it was amazing. I'd go in there and take a picture for this post but I don't want to push my luck. I'm off to relax for a few minutes...yay!

masks

When Isaac was sick at Christmas he had to be placed on a maintenance inhaler to keep the asthma at bay. Poor guy has to have it twice a day for three months. Isaac fought and cried like crazy the first few days. Now he's pretty easy going about it. He even thinks it's funny to make his toys into masks.
