A Fun Weekend with Family

Before I talk about our weekend, I just had to include a couple cute pictures of our Isaiah. It's been getting pretty chilly here in Indiana the past few days so Isaiah has had to wear his little hat! My sweet chiropractor made this hat especially for him and he wears it proudly!

Isaiah just LOVES his baths these days and I think he might be the cutest little ducky I've ever seen! He's just getting to be such a "chunker"!

OK, now about this weekend. My Mom, Aunt Mary Beth, Cousin Courtney, her daughter Sophie, and my Nana came to visit. Courtney had some continuing education classes in Indy this weekend so they all decided to come and make a fun trip out of it! We had so much fun the entire weekend! We went out to eat ( a lot!), visited Eric at his model homes, made homemade chicken noodle soup and fruit pizza and went to visit Jessica in Muncie. I love weekends when we all get to spend time together as a family and this was one of them!

Here is Sophie loving on Isaiah. She held him several times and one of those times came to a quick end when Isaiah filled his britches and Sophie decided that was disgusting and she didn't want to hold him anymore. Thankfully several of us were right there in case she let go!

Doesn't he look SO big!!!

And here is a picture to show how fascinated she was with Eric's height! He had her on his shoulders a good portion of the weekend! She thought it was so cool to be able to touch the ceiling! They had fun playing together!

I love my family! Thank you for such a GREAT weekend!!!!

The last of our trip...

Here are our final vacation pics. As you can tell, Isaiah was a HUGE fan of the pool!


The brothers and their boys!

He's such a happy boy!

Uncle Ian saying his final good-byes! We love you Uncle Ian, Aunt Leah and Eli. We miss you all so much already and can't wait to see you again over the holidays!

Black and Whites

I just love black and white pictures so I made sure to take some black and white film on vacation. Here are some of my favorites!

Our Precious Pumpkin

OK, I realize I may be going a bit overboard with the pumpkin pictures here, but I just couldn't decide on which ones to put so I thought it would be best to put all of them! Well, not actually ALL of them because I took a ton but hey, it's his first Halloween costume and the first time only happens once, right?? :)

Already looking annoyed with mom and the camera!

How adorable is he????

Daddy and his "punkin"!

The stem hat did not last long!

Check out those cute legs!
Isaiah's cousin Eli also had a pumpkin costume for Halloween and we intended to get pictures of them together but they were not cooperative at the same time. Isaiah's best time is right after he eats so we put his costume on him at that point in the evening but that happened to be when Elijah was eating and by the time he was finished eating, Isaiah had had ENOUGH of that costume! So, even though they aren't together, we also wanted to post a picture of Eli in his costume. As you can clearly tell, he was NOT happy about it!

Home Sweet Home

Well, we are home from our great week with family. We visited Eric's brother, Ian, his wife Leah, and their new little boy, Elijah. They live in Ft. Myers, Florida so we had a fun week in the warm weather! Isaiah once again did a fabulous job traveling yesterday! We couldn't have been more proud of him! Thank you for your prayers for our safe travels. We definitely felt them! Here are some pictures to document our trip. I will try to update frequently with new pictures during this week! Enjoy!On the plane with dad!

Working on those neck muscles! Check out the chunky arm :)
Isaiah loved the swing he got to borrow from his cousin!
New Horsey outfit! What a cute little tail!

Isaiah loved going for walks in the stroller! And he LOVES his hands!

A Great Traveler!!!

Well, I can't post any pictures right now but I DO have to report that we have an excellent traveler on our hands! Isaiah did amazing on the plane and we landed safe and sound yesterday afternoon! Isaiah and Elijah are best friends already and we're all having a great time! Not only was Isaiah awesome during our travel but he was a great sleeper last night. For almost two weeks now he's been sleeping through the night and being in a different bed, in a different place didn't change that! Yeah Isaiah!!! We are so proud of our sweet boy!

Love to you all!

Vacation

Well, today is the day that I'm taking my baby on a plane for the first time. I'm still a bit anxious about it but I know we are in the Lord's hands! We covet your prayers today as we travel! We'll be sure to take many pictures of the new cousin, Eli!!!

Here are a couple pics of our sweet Isaiah to hold you over until we get back!

Isaiah is already working on his game face! Go Colts!!!

And he thinks his Mimi is FUNNY!

We love you all! We'll be back in a week!
