Bath Time Fun

Horsing Around

Busy Boy!

Crazy Momma

So, I am really not the best at taking pictures. I have a very talented friend that does an awesome job. As for me, the pictures usually turn out pretty goofy looking. The other night, I wanted to take some pictures of little Ikie in his crib sleeping. Not sure, what I was thinking because if I can't take a good picture in normal lighting, how the heck did I think I could do in the dark! I had to be really quick too because Ikie is such a light sleeper. Here is what I came up with

Fun Times

Issac is doing so many fun things now. I just smile and laugh all day long.....especially when I am on the road for work.

The other day, Devin was getting ready in our bathroom when he heard Isaac blowing bubbles. Here Ikie was on the floor licking out of Weezie's water dish. Devin said "Isaac, what are you doing." Ikie looked at Devin and smiled and said "No, No." Then went back to drinking Weezies water. I guess he is really paying attention to what WE are ALL doing.

He knows what he is not supposed to do. He actually gives us a little warning that he is up to some mischief. He will shake his head and say "no no" right before he does something naughty. He knows that he is not supposed to play with my lamp and he was telling us "no" as he was trying to remove the lamp off the table. We quickly jumped up to intervene.

He loves to be loud and scream too. Any time he hears a loud noise, he screams. Then we say "oh my gosh" and then he screams about 10 more times and laughs hysterically at himself.

We still have not beat the bottle habit. I put him in the car after daycare and the first thing that I hear is "bobble, bobble." I usually give in.....I am made of marshmallow when it comes to this kid. We get home and I give him a bottle. He now plays with his toys and the bottle is actually hanging from his teeth. A sure sign that he is a bit big for his bottle.

He loves Weezie and loves to torment her too. I must tell Weezie "good girl" alot because Ikie will copy that and then tease her with her treats...again laughing that he acutally has the control.

He is saying about 20 words now. Not consistentantly but is saying words. He even said the word "snow" today. I was laying in bed actually counting them all the other night. Devin asked me what I was doing and I told him that I wanted to count all the words so I don't miss what milestones he has reached.

Well more posts later. Love to all!

15 months!

We had a wonderful Christmas in Chicago with my family. Grandma and Grandpa K enjoyed spending time with us and especially little Ikie. Isaac has truly been the best gift of my life and the holidays were so much fun with him in it. We made the very long trip/drive to Chicago and mom/dad were on pins and needles the whole way. We drove during the night soIkie could sleep pretty much the entire way. He is such a busy boy that I knew we could not drive during the hours when he would be awake and needing to explore life. When he did wake up during the drive, we would throw in his baby signing time video and life was good again. He absolutely loves that video and will often go around the houses singing "baby, baby." Isaac was very much spoiled by my parents/grandma's and aunts/uncles.

We are having so much fun with Ikie. He is doing so much! He loves to copy the kids at daycare, his friend Kade, and even mom and dad.

Words Isaac can say:

• momma, dadda
• bye
• Hello and will put any phone to his ears. He is obsessed with phones
• Declicious......sounds more like "deeeeish"
• No, No No.....especially if he needs to correct Weezie.
• "Oh, Nooooo" if something breaks. He likes to turn channels with the remote and he says "oh, noooo" if the channel turns fuzzy.
• baby
• Weezie.....sounds more like "Weeee"
• Juice.......sounds more like "ooooss"
• "woof" whenever he is able to see a dog
• "go" the other day, he was saying "go" and then he would run across the room
• "ball"

Things that Isaac is doing:

• Show's excitement: I love it when he gets excited to see me. He gets very excited when we go to playland in the mall. He literally screams so loud and his body gets so stiff.
• waves
• blows kisses
• signs "more" when he wants something
• plays with cars and goes "vroom vroom"
• tries to use spoon/forks and is actually doing well

I am also going to try to get some new pictures up as well.
