Found Some Pictures!

I'm finally getting around to posting Isaac's first birthday pictures! And he's almost 2!!! Thank you, Mark and Nicole, for taking these pictures for us. If it weren't for their help with much of the party, I would have been so exhausted! They pitched in with EVERYTHING and let Carlos and I enjoy the party! What a gift!

Well, we just got a new computer, so I was transferring some files and found some pictures on a memory stick that I forgot that I had saved there! These date from April to July! Pictures from January to March are stuck on our old computer, which is in permanent hibernation because it won't charge. I'll get those off eventually.

In April we had a pretty heavy storm and Isaac was just drawn to a puddle outside our little house! Most of these pictures are of him and Lillie playing in the puddle. Looking back now he looks so small! He's really grown a lot in the last 7 months.

In May there are several fun things.

~Isaac LOVES music and LOVES to dance, so there are some pictures of him dancing with Welita.
~We went to the library, and they have a section of board books with a big wooden train that has a place to sit in it. We'd been there before, but this was the first trip where the train got his attention enough that he actually played in it!

~Then there's the day that Isaac fed a tortilla to his Cookie Monster toy. He was so proud of his humor!

~Isaac also got to see newly hatched baby birds for the first time in May. If I remember right he had a hard time believing me when I told him those were birds! They didn't look like any birds he had ever seen!

~We went to visit my grandmother in May. She was having a really rough spell and was so tired that she slept almost the whole time we were there, but she did wake up to play a little game with Isaac. He would come over and give her his hand, which she grabbed just hard enough that he had to fight to pull it away. When he did get loose, he would laugh and gather his courage to give her his hand again! Unfortunately, our pictures always show AFTER he had gotten his hand loose again! We also got a picture of him in her wheelchair, which is the most fun toy in her possession! I remember playing in MY great-grandmother's wheelchair as a girl, and I know what neat memories that made for me. (I have some pictures of her from this past Sunday and I can't wait to post them because she looks SO good!!!)

~Lastly (in May), we went in search of a park and found one in Plantersville. We had recently been told that kids are born with a long attention span for what interests them, and we saw that in action! You should just see how long this kid can swing!

June is mostly pictures of Isaac starting swimming lessons at the Conroe Aquatic Center. We enjoyed them so much that he took all three summer sessions and the fall session! June was also the month that he turned 18 months old so we went ahead and got another penguin photo shoot. I've updated the penguin page so you can see his growth since birth!

For July the only thing I wanted to point out is that in the pictures where Isaac is actually wearing clothes, he was wearing Daddy's clothes from 30 years ago! I don't remember what music was on, but he started dancing, and in the picture to the left, he's showing off his "snapping" skills! Like I said, he LOVES music, and LOVES to dance! It's just a bit cuter when he has clothes from a different decade!!!

I'll post more old pictures as soon as I can get them off our old computer (or as soon as I find them somewhere else). As for the new ones? I don't know. You see, Isaac just woke up and it's time for breakfast!!!
