Holding my own bottle! Like a big boy! :)

"Daddy, why aren't you talking to me!?!"

Ready for game day!!! (it was Saturday - they won!)

Milestones MILESTONES!

So Isaiah is not yet 6 months old, but he is already a mover and a shaker!! Here is what he's up to these days. Isaiah sleeps through the night, (although he considers 6:30am an appropriate time to wake up in the morning). He is crawling, he started just about at 5 months. He LOVES to crawl towards powercords. So our laptop is often dead seeing as that is his favorite cord to pull. He is starting to teethe, so he loves to nibble on adult fingers, but he HURTS when he bites down. He also loves to nibble on powercords....so we're in trouble all around really.
He is has also been using his walker. This has LITERALLY been a lifesaver. He started getting really tired of the swing after he figured out that he could move around. So at a consignment sale a few weeks ago, I picked up a walker for him, and OMG its awesome!!! He loves it! He sits in it for anywhere from 30-60 minutes perfectly content!! Since he has a walker now, and will obviously start moving around, I had to get him his first pair of shoes. SOO CUTE! Unfortunately he has very wide and fat feet. So his shoes don't fit perfectly, but they do protect his baby toesies when we are outside. And that's all that matters.
Speaking of moving around, I really have to babyproof our house! We haven't really done any preemptive baby proofing, we're doing it on the fly. Which is probably not the best way to do it, but hey. For example this morning. Isaiah was hanging out on our bed while we were getting dressed. I had to leave the room so I put him on the floor of out room. I turn around for one minute and I turn back to find Isaiah on the floor, with a metal hanger, which is precariously close to an EXPOSED OUTLET!! So I immediately found one of the snazzy outlet cover things, and plugged up the exposed outlet. Man on man are we in trouble!

We also rode the swing set for the first time. Isaiah enjoyed the first 5 minutes or so, but then he didn't really know what to do with himself, so he started crying. When in doubt, cry I guess is their motto as children. LOL.

Another milestone, although this is a Mommy milestone is that I finally have a car! I won't say I own it, its more like I owe someone money on a car, but hey, you get the point. It's really exciting, because with the car, Isaiah and I have a lot more freedom. We can go to playdates, the supermarket, anywhere we have to without having to inconvenience Tyler, my Mom, or ourselves. It's very exciting! So now that we have a "baby car" we will have many more adventures! I will also try to post pictures from those here.

Cute of yesterday! I love fall b/c of the cute clothes! Hats, booties and footsie pajamas. Yay!

Elevator Daddy!

Fun with Dad!

Swinging at the park!

Let's go Phillies!! 8.11.10

So I only like baseball live. I can't stand watching it on TV. And since we are in Philadelphia, and the Pirates are awful, we can enjoy the Phillies. We took Isaiah to his first Phillies game, and he did great! He took a nice little nap on our way down 95 to rest up for the game. He sat contentedly and watched the Phillies beat the Dodgers (sorry Cali fam). We ate some ice cream and then came home. All in all a wonderful night out. Tyler and I are very lucky that Isaiah is such a good baby! We have pretty much been able to take him EVERYWHERE! I'm hoping that trend continues, because we enjoy getting out every once in a while.

GO STEELERS!!!! (Early August)

Yes, I grew up in Philadelphia, and YES I am a Steelers fan! How that happened is anyone's guess, but YES Tyler is very lucky to have an awesome sports-loving wife like me! I have had my Polamalu jersey for a few years now, so OF COURSE we had to get Isaiah his jersey. We have to be ready for pre-season football!! Thanks to Nana he has 2 jerseys now! Here are we are sporting our pride...we're only missing our terrible towels!

Rollover! Rollover! (early July)

I'm going to have to back date some posts to catch you up on Isaiah. So the date of the event will be in the title...sorry to be so confusing. Anyway, so Isaiah started rolling over in early July. It was slow progress at first, but once he got the hang of it he couldn't stop himself from doing it! Here are some examples of his work.

I love the picture of him in the swing. He was in there, and didn't want to be, so he tried to roll himself out. Almost worked had I not been paying attention! LOL.

Melody's wedding

A few weekends ago we got the chance to see my cousin Melody get married. The wedding was pretty and Melo looked gorgeous. Unfortunately, Tyler had the worst cold/sore throat/general illness that I've EVER seen him get, (that goes back 7 years....so trust me it was horrible). Between that, and it being a later wedding, we didn't get to stay long to enjoy the reception, but we got to see the important part...the ceremony. We did although have enough time at the reception for Ivy to catch this great picture of Isaiah and I. I love it. My little man and I have tons of fun, as this picture so well shows.

Osi enjoys a slotted spoon.

Okay, so I finally figured out why i haven't been able to update my blog from my phone. Now, i will be TONS better at updating! Yay!!!!

Water Baby!

Apparently I'm still bad at keeping up with blogging....oh well, I'm working on it! So...what have we been up to....well lots. Lots of swimming thats for sure. Isaiah is a water baby! Just like his mommy. He really enjoys swimming, especially his turtle floaty.

See how much he enjoys it?

Here is one thing he does NOT enjoy!

We've been doing a bunch of this this summer, and it has been awesome! He rarely if ever cries in the water. What's really funny is watching him splash himself unknowingly, and then look around to see who splashed him. SO funny!
