Sunday: be glad this didn't happen to your house

Chickens Invade!

The sign says "We have hatched a plot most fowl."

Chickens multiply.

Saturday: nap

Right as Ben was waking up I put Isaac down for his first nap of the day (8:30am, on this day). I was excited because Ben could listen for and take care of Isaac.

I proceeded to take a 2.5 hour nap. I was rather surprised to see the clock read 11 when I finally woke up.

Friday: getting bigger

In the past week, three separate waitress/hostess people have asked us if Isaac needs a children's menu or to order something.  He must be getting bigger and looking older if they're asking. :)

Thursday: theme day - frogs

Today's theme day was frogs.  We said a lot of ribbit-ribbits.

We went for a frog hunt.

(We didn't find any.)

We learned that frogs exist in different habitats.

We captured one.

(I was having trouble with all the pictures today...sorry.  But this one you can clearly see frog eyes in two places, so I thought it was cool.)

Another habitat is the basement.

There are brown frogs and dragonflies (on my bandana) live around frogs.

There are orange frogs.  The green frog and orange frog proceeded to kick around a new pillow that was in plastic.  On the hardwood floors, it went far and spun easily.  And it was hilarious to both frogs, but especially to the green one.

Frogs exist in wet climates.

Wednesday: story time

Today we went to story time at the library.  We've gone a few times, but this is the first time that Isaac seemed to interact a little bit.  Or maybe he just liked looking at other babies.  He still does not like things on his head...one of the songs involved covering his eyes for a peek-a-boo, but it took too long between the cover and the reveal and he was able to yank my hands off.

edit: oh bother, I actually had an interesting topic for today.  Luckily it's a general topic so you can get it again later.

Tuesday: dinner

Ben and I brought dinner to a couple that just had a baby tonight.  It worked well because the baby was not having a happy afternoon, so the parents would not have had much time to make dinner.  The baby is so small...it's amazing how much Isaac has grown in the last eight months.

And Isaac was super cute.  As almost always.

Monday: quilt

Today I finished my Tetris quilt.  I've been working hard to get it done by tonight...it was really a little bit too fast of a pace for me.  I should have done the quilting differently or ignored the "deadline."  I needed about three or four more days for it to be a comfortable pace.

Anyway, Isaac wanted to help a lot today.  I had it spread out to tie off the thread ends and get the lint off and he kept getting in the way.  A lot like Flurry always does, but at least Isaac doesn't shed.
