Ride It


If there's a toy, or a piggy bank for that matter, that is just the right size, Isaac is going to ride it. He is still on the go constantly and is very creative with new ways to play with the same old things. For example, typically we just put money in a piggy bank. However, after Isaac stashed away all of his change, he said, "Ride it" and hopped on. He's great entertainment.

Favorite Phrases: "Isaac did it!", "Read the book", "No please Mommy"

Cookie Monster


Isaac is growing up so fast and is so curious about everything. Enjoy the movie.

It takes a bit to download, but it's so worth it.

    Farmer Isaac


    We had a great morning at the farm Saturday! We went to a potato harvest and dug up potatoes for a couple of hours. Isaac loved it - permission to play in the dirt. Secretly, Daddy loved it too for the same reason. Daddy also spotted a cricket and showed Isaac how to hold it carefully in his hand.

    Mommy and Daddy made time to pick cherry tomatoes so Isaac kept himself occupied with this red tractor. It was hard to leave it behind, but we convinced Isaac he could play with it next time.

    Pancake Posse


    We are a pancake family. Most Saturday mornings Martin makes them for breakfast and now Isaac is a chef in training. He likes to help me make supper so there was no hesitation when he saw Daddy stirring something fun in a bowl. He pulls a chair over to the counter to get the best view possible.

    New Words: "Cooking", "Tower" and "Acorn"

    Family Week Part 2!







    Family week has been much needed! We are truly enjoying our extra time together. Isaac smiles, looks at Martin and says, "Daddy home." Oscar is quite pleased with Martin's time off too and cozies up to him every chance he gets (photo #1). Big dog was also happy to be at the lake with us for a few days. He seriously sounds like a horse as he does laps around us on the beach (photo #2). I'm afraid he's showing his age a little more each summer though. After two consecutive days with good runs on the beach, he hasn't moved off the couch.

    Isaac can play with diggers and dump trucks all day long so there was no question on which toys to bring to the beach with us (photo #3). Although, he did spend quite a bit of time with shovels and buckets. He made sure we packed enough so Mommy & Daddy were well supplied too. Nobody gets bored when he's around!

    Of course, no vacation is complete without ice cream, and lots of it! We've had so much lately Isaac is beginning to think it's one of the food groups (photo #4). Hmmm, is it bad we have plans to meet up with neighbors for more ice cream tomorrow?
