Thursday: another nice day

Today was another beautiful day. Isaac and I went shopping for the afternoon. Besides that...we relaxed.

Isaac had a crab on his shirt and it worked really well to suck all the crabiness out if him...he was pretty happy today

Wednesday: another first

Today was Isaac's first time in a pool. Although the pictures below are a bit misleading...the hat came off quickly and we went to the hot tub so we could have slightly warmer water. (not hot tub temps...just a bit warmer.). Isaac seemed to tolerate it then. He didn't seem to love or hate it.

Then we went inside and took a nap. After Isaac woke up I gave him to Ben and slept another two hours...I must have really needed some sleep.

Tuesday: first flight

Today was Isaac's first airplane ride. It went pretty well. He enjoyed the airport and watching people. Just as we were about to board he fell asleep. But he didn't stay asleep...he probably only slept for 45 minutes. He was pretty good until bedtime, when he lost it. There wasn't too much of the flight left, and the airplane was really loud, so it wasn't too bad.

Monday: first day on the new job

Today was my first day on the new job.  However, my "boss" made it pretty easy on my by sleeping most of the day.

We wore the same type of shirt today...I guess the best way to describe it is long-john material

He was also so tired that he fell asleep while rubbing his eyes.

I'm also in the middle of packing for vacation.  I think we'll manage to get everything in a suitcase, backpack, and diaper bag.  Flurry is sleeping on the luggage.  I'm not sure if she's there because she wants to come with us or because I took up the whole table.

Sunday: nap

I took a nap today.  I had a headache (again...what is it about Sundays?) and got up for Isaac more during the night than usual.  I think he might be going through a growth spurt...it is about the right time for it.

Anyway, while I was napping Ben and Isaac spent some quality time together.  And cleaned the kitchen.  It was a nice surprise when I woke up.

Saturday: this and that

It was a nice day today...relaxing, but we still got stuff done.  Isaac took a four hour nap in the morning, which was kind of crazy. 

Isaac had some happy time with Ben.

 They played flash games.  I'm not a huge fan of flash games, mostly because I don't enjoy most of them (not because I don't think they should be played) so I was a bit disappointed the boys were ganging up on me.

In the 2.5 weeks of work I ended up with a lot of extra milk.  But after being so worried about not having enough ready for daycare I was just hoarding it.

Isaac had a very rough night, mostly for unknown reasons.  One known reason is that I accidently dripped about three drips of cold water on his chest while he was taking his dip.  Oh my.  You would have thought that I was torturing him.  But before the dip and after getting his clothes off he was in a good mood...so he laid on the counter for about 20 minutes, looking at the underside of the cabinets.  Apparently they were interesting.

P.S. Thanks to a youtube video we watched two days ago, Ben and I had the ticky-tacky song stuck in our heads all day.  It's especially hard to get a song out of your head when someone else is singing it all the time too.
