Almost 11 months AHHHH!

Oh boy has he grown.

Isaiah is crawling!!!! He has figured out how to get to mama's toy storage area and pull all the toys out. He loves this. He also loves rides in his new jogging stroller. And, just this morning mama was having some leftover coffee cake for breakfast while he was having applesauce. Isaiah was smart enough to figure out that I was eating something different than him. He began pounding on his tray in excitement as if to say, "I want what you have." Mama gave in and now Isaiah loves blueberry coffee cake. I guess this means mama should not eat dessert for breakfast anymore.

These pictures actually came out backwards on here so start from the bottom and work up because it is a progression of events.

This is the, "I want the camera and your not letting me play with it" picture "I want the camera"
On the move


"I am coming for that camera"

"I am suppose to smile when you get that thing out, right?"

A picture is worth a thousand words

I think that is how the saying goes. Is that the truth with this one. I call this the, "I want" picture. Isaiah is in a stage of life that I also name the, "I want stage." I want the camera, I want my food, I want my sippy cup, I want anything on the frig, I want anything that mom has...the list goes on. Of course he does not tell us verbally that he wants these things, instead we get this look and several screams.

He is getting closer and closer to being able to crawl. We keep cheering him on, but he does get easily frustrated.

We are excited to see the Griswold family this weekend!!!

Easter Egg Hunt With The Neighbors

Well, I have to say, Isaiah did very well on his first egg hunt. He got about 35 eggs all together and had fun with the ones that made noise when he shook them.

For Dad and Mom, it was a very pleasant break from the madness going on inside the house. Inside the house the shower and sink drain are still completely clogged, and the basement is still drying.

Oh the closet.

and here is all the furniture. (This is an organizers nightmare)

On to the fun photos

The Eggs

Enjoying some of the goods.


Back at home, surrounded by his treasure.

Mama will eat most of the treasure!

Happy Easter!

I am almost there

Mama says I am changing everyday. Her and Dada went crazy clapping and cheering when I put my hands together to tell them I wanted "more" goldfish. So...I thought I would milk it a little bit. I said "more" with my hands 5 times in a row. They kept putting more on my tray, it was great. I think I am going to like this.

Mama keeps putting me on my tummy because she insist I can crawl. I get onto all fours which is just enough to make her clap, then I start violently screaming so that I can get off my tummy. Sitting is advanced enough for me right now.

Mama has also been taking me outside a lot. I like going to that place with all the other kids. She puts me in the black hanging contraption and pushes me back and forth. I like it a lot. She also tried putting me in my jumper in the middle of the yard while she left me to go "pull weeds" I quickly stopped that as I would scream every time she was more than 5 steps away form me. I can't believe it, she let me scream for a really long time. She kept saying to me, "the neighbors are not going to like all this screaming."

Mama says I get to go on my very first Easter egg hunt on Saturday. I am not sure about this yet. Maybe I will scream or maybe I will giggle.

Me in my jumper. (I am happy because Mama is right next to me here)

See Mama, I can crawl. When I see something I want. I don't think there is a difference between crawling and scooting.
