Mr. Isaac

This not so little guy is so funny. He is getting so big with a very BIG personality. He is discovering that he can "disagree" with mommy and has thrown a tantrum or two. It's so hard not to laugh. He is fuuuny. He throws himself to the floor then rolls around in hysterics. Usually it's when I tell him he can't have another squeeezy!!.

He had a couple days where he was being a finicky eater and the only way I could get him to eat was to put food on the end of a straw or on a dull tooth pick. He is eating watermelon on a straw in this pic! AND wearing Daddy's sock. He is obsessed with socks and shoes!

Friday morning we made jam. He ate almost as many as I used for the jam.

I love his chubby little body!

He wasn't nearly as excited as I was about the finished product!

Atticus got a "CARS" tent from a "stranger that's now a friend" that he never had the chance to play with. In fact, it was never even opened. It was in the corner of the office. Isaac saw the box and saw that there was a baby on the box (really a little guy about his age), he is obsessed with babies and will cradle his arms, rock is body, and say "nigh-nigh baby, " super cute, anyway, we decided to open it up. He LOOOVED it. And we played in it all morning long!


"Go-Go-Go!"
We were throwing balls back and forth.


I love this picture. Nakey baby. Purple dish gloves. Singing one of his many songs!

Atticus did this exact same thing. When they hear something they put their hand to their ear with the cutest "Oh!" face. He kept saying, "Daddy! Home!"

After church snack on-the-go! Who doesn't love grapes and a choo-choo?!

The weekend went better then the beginning of the week which is good. Saturday was good but weird. Being just the three of us. We laughed, snuggled, played, worked, cooked, cried, and napped. 

Sunday was good too. It was the first Sunday I didn't cry at church. I still got anxiety on the way to church but no tears while there. BIG step! I wish I could say I made it the entire day but Sunday night it hit me hard. I cuddled up to my husband and cried. Man we miss him. It's hard. Really really hard. We miss his awesome one-liners, his made up songs, he sweet smile, I miss sleeping with him, him tossing in the night to snuggle up close to me. His jokes. His laugh. It's a good thing we have our sweet Isaac. He has been really good at keeping his mommy and daddy going!

That is one cute kid. :) His personality comes across well in the pictures. I love the picture of him rinsing the strawberry especially.

I love little Isaac, he's so photogenic and just makes me smile. I'm so proud of you for not giving up, for battling every day. For making it through church; I prayed for you. The Lord really answers prayers. Love you.

Love love LOVE these pictures. I'm so glad you had such a great time making jam, eating strawberries and playing ball in and out of that awesome tent. So glad you had a better Sunday. I adore your family. So many do. It makes my heart happy to know that there are some moments that are better.

I L-O-V-E that boy. I really wish I could squeeze him right now! And I wouldn't mind having a little of that jam on toast either. Once you have had homemade jam it's all over. The store bought stuff just tastes like garbage. And I want you to know that while you were making homemade jam for your family I was probably making top ramen for mine :)I love and miss you very very much. Love, Stacie
