Sunday: Grandma

Tonight we went to visit Ben's grandma in the hospital. :(  It was an unexpected visit, and so I didn't plan ahead for feeding and napping with Isaac like I normally try to do if we leave the house.  However, Isaac loved the hospital.  He always does seem to enjoy new places and places with people.  He did really well...he waited on his nap and he skipped a snack.  It's nice that he can be flexible like that.

(He also went to nursery this morning during church and his report was that he played and played and played and played.  :)   )

(Maybe I should have called this post Isaac instead of Grandma.  She was in good spirits when we left.)

Saturday: magnets

We got a lovely surprise in the mail today!  Liz sent us some fall magnets she made.

Here Isaac is trying to eat the ghost.  Or  he's saying ":|"  I know this isn't the best picture, but I like Flurry in the background too.

In this one he's tasting the pumpkin pie with a spider on his head.  We had a hard time convincing him that he shouldn't eat this pie.  He was unfazed by the spider, probably because we have several in the house already.

Thursday: naps

I find that when I'm getting Isaac ready for a nap, I tend to get tired also.  Yesterday was a very bad napping day for us.  So today when he went down for his second nap, I decided to take a second nap also.  And I woke up before him.  It was awesome.

(To be fair, I also enjoy not napping when Isaac naps.  I get so much done!)

Wednesday: more rooms

I have two more rooms in the house that are unpacked, clean, and set up. :)

The bathroom.  (I made the shower curtain and it took a while, which is why this room took a while to show.  There are tons of bath toys behind it.)
 

If you come to visit us and end up taking a shower behind it, you'll have this cool view:


The living room is also finished!  The last finishing touch was that I finally organized the stuff in some built-in shelves.  Oh, the lighting is rather bad.  Oh well, you still get the idea.

Tuesday: why I'm a mean mother

For our luncheon dessert, I gave Isaac peas.  I had a rice krispie bar.  And I ate it in front of him.

Monday: still smart



(While we had a lot of fun with his shirt, which says "Physics Dept" on it, it seems like a limited market.  I'm still trying to figure out why someone thought it was a sell-able item.)

Sunday: smartest baby ever

It's true; we have the smartest baby ever.  Take a look at this picture...


1) Pockets: Isaac put a toy in his pocket all by himself.  I thought Ben had done it when I found it, but Ben had no idea what I was talking about.
2) Anatomy: Isaac knows is anatomy and that hearts go in your upper chest.  (Oh, the toy is the heart from his puzzle.)  He could have put it in his leg pocket, but that's not where hearts go.
3) Time passing: Isaac pulled the heart out of his pocket later on in the kitchen to play with.  He knew that the only way to play with it upstairs was to save it in his pocket and not draw attention to it for a while.
