Isaac's 2nd Birthday!

Okay, so Isaac's birthday was in February (the 17th to be exact) and I thought it would be great if I could make record of it before April. I guess I barely made it!

Isaac with his cute cousin Lindsay.

Aren't they adorable in their animal print towels?

I'm going to love this picture FOREVER.

Isaac's birthday cake. I wanted to make something more cake-like,

but I was voted out. So, dirt-cake it was!

I couldn't wait, so I let Isaac open a couple presents the morning

of his birthday. He loved these books from Grandma.

He also loved his card, as you can see :)

Another shot with the cousins. Seriously, I'd love to know

what Shauna and Lindsay are both thinking in this shot.

Umm, we're happy! Come on Isaac! Time to be happy!

Isaac with his Grand-Dad, who helped him

blow out the candles. I can't believe how skinny

Isaac looks in this picture. He's really beefed up again

over the last couple of months.

Got to love those stages and phases.

Cake face!

How could this possibly be comfortable?

DECEMBER

Snow, Tree Hunting, Tree decorating, and CHRISTMAS!

What is it about babies in snowclothes?

I love it.

We had to wake Isaac up so we could get out

of the car and go tree hunting!

Isaac and Grand-dad

And here's our tree!

Isaac promptly removed all the ornaments on the lower half.

That's part of the fun, right?

Here's the decorated tree before Isaac did too much damage.

Merry Christmas! Mr. Potato Head was (and still is) a major hit!

Isaac and Lindsay playing a new game in their Christmas jammies.

And here are a few videos for you! Yes, I'm FINALLY posting videos. I'm going to try to do this more often... The one in Isaac's bedroom is the funniest. Isaac laughs really hard.

NOVEMBER (3rd Installment)

THANKSGIVING AND EARLY CHRISTMAS

This is Nathan's lovely family. We had the privilege of spending about 3 weeks with Nathan's brother Derek and his wife Camilla (who live in England), and a couple of those weeks included everyone else. It's so nice to have that time with family. I love my in-laws, and it was so fun to hang out together. Here are some of the pictures of our good times.

I love Isaac's expression in this next one.

He's like, "Mom, take that thing off. You are embarrassing me!"

Good times were had by all! We miss you guys!

A DAY AT THE PARK

The happy newly-weds (Derek and Camilla), arrived from England during the second week of November. We were lucky enough to have some warm weather, and we enjoyed a lovely day in the park.
