Christmas Time 2

Mimi and Papa got Isaiah a super awesome Columbia snowsuit and coat.  We tried it on...fun times!  Grandpa wore this hat and Isaiah kept taking it off him because he looked weird.  We put it on him instead.  That lasted about 30 seconds.  In tradition, we took a family picture in front of the tree (you can't see the tree though).  
Side note:  

Thanks Tom and Lynn for the GREAT purple IPOD!  I love it and can't wait to work out using it!  Kevin loves his DVDs and bible.  We wish you could've been here.  Isaiah sends kisses and hugs.  Pictures will come of all the snazzy outfits.  Thanks for everything you have done for us!

Thanks Jeff and Amy for the gift card.  It will be a wonderful treat.  The outfit you got him is adorable.  He loves the nativity set too!  We all hope to see you soon.

Thanks Jenny for the gift cards and for all the baby-sitting you do for us.  We appreciate getting to go out and enjoy some alone time.

Nathan, you are the best lil brother in the world.  Isaiah adores you!  Thanks for entertaining him.

And last, Mom and Dad...we wouldn't be sane without you.  You gave us an amazing wedding and help us out daily.  We are grateful for everything....and thanks for the sweatshirt (boo) and jewelry.  Oh, the sled was hit!

Christmas Time 1

We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my mom and dad. Isaiah opened presents both days....he was so funny! Here are a couple pictures for your viewing pleasure.

Seeing Santa

Kevin was at camp last night so Mom and Dad invited us to the mall with them.  They wanted to buy Isaiah his first pair of "shoes".  Last time they took him there he wasn't quite standing up so the lady said to wait.  They bought him a super cute brown pair from the kid section.  You will all find it crazy to hear that Isaiah has HUGE FEET!  He is wearing size 7 shoes!  Yep, most one year olds are wearing 4s or 5s.  What can I say?  He has great genes!?  After getting a balloon from Stride Right, Mom wanted to take him to see Santa.  I was apprehensive knowing his temperament, but it went fairly well.  He didn't scream and throw a fit like I had figured.  Then Uncle Nathan took him on the train.  Isaiah smiled so big when it was going around....of course every time I took the picture he stopped...lil booger!  Then we went to Happy Joe's for pizza...he sure loves Pizza (just like his Daddy).  This morning I put one of his new shirts from Mimi and Papa on him and he looked so handsome I got him to pose once for me.  Of course, then he went to torture poor Mia...and I took a picture of that too.  (For future proof!).  Well, enjoy the pictures everyone....it's snowing and blowing here.  Hope all of you in warmer weather consider yourselves LUCKY!

After the picture

so I realized after I sent the last message....these pictures will be seen first, oh well.  Yep, quite the mess!!!

Isaiah's Birthday party

We had Isaiah's first birthday party this Saturday.  Our friends, the Esbecks, came over to spend the evening with us.  Isaiah received TONS of adorable clothes!  (Thanks, Mimi and Papa). Grandma, Grandpa, and Nathan got him a cool music radio to annoy the living heck out of us (THANKS!) and a pull telephone (an old time toy).  We got him a car/helicopter garage.  Jeff, Amy and Addy got Isaiah an AMAZING painted picture with scripture from Isaiah.  Can't wait to hang it up!   Amy, Todd, and Briella Esbeck got Isaiah an AWESOME book with CDs.   And Katie and Ray (who couldn't be there) gave us a gift card for Target to get a toy or something...haven't spent it yet!  

We got a Sesame Street cupcake birthday cake for him, but he had his own cake...seen in the picture.  See next post for what happened after this post!

Helping Decorate Grandma's Tree

We went over to Grandma and Grandpa's house last weekend because Daddy was gone at camp.  Grandma let Isaiah put some decorations on the tree.  He loved it!  Then Isaiah had spaghetti...his favorite!  

Isaiah's 1st Birthday

Isaiah is 1 years old!

Altough his party is scheduled until the 13th, we had a mini celebration at my mom and dad's. Isaiah was so excited about the cake he dove right in...literally!

Isaiah ate two whole pieces of cake....yep, he definately has my sweet tooth!

We opened two presents last night. One from Mimi and Papa was some super cute and comfy pjs. Kevin and I got him some blocks...cause we enjoy picking up MORE toys!
