Bouncing, Birthday and New Shoes!

We've finished another week and I'm trying really hard to keep up with posting pics. This little guy has changed so much so quickly and I want everyone to be able to watch him grow. Not much has changed as far as our routine goes, I just got used to being home alone with Isaiah. I have to admit, as boring as it may be some times, I wouldn't change it for the world- I would give anything to be able to stay home with him forever! Isaiah's appetite continues to get stronger, but he has recently started spitting up quite a bit. It's not everytime he eats, but it happens everyday. This gets to be really frustrating because after nursing for an hour, he spits up and then is hungry again! This week, I learned that the bouncer and the swing are priceless. Not only does Isaiah really enjoy them, putting him in them lets me get the laundry done, take a shower, and go to the restroom. I didn't really think about how having him would affect my ability to go to the restroom when I wanted to! Here is a video of Isaiah enjoying his bouncer. He won't stay in it for more that about 15 minutes- I think he gets frustrated because he can't grab the toys.


Since I didn't know for sure when Isaiah was going to make his appearance in this world, I had to postpone some plans. Jeremy's birthday was December 2nd and I didn't know for sure whether I would be up for anything by that time. So... I planned a surprise for him for December 13th. It wasn't anything big, just dinner with some friends, but it sure was nice to get out. It was our first experience eating out with Isaiah, and I'm happy to say that he was wonderful. He slept through most of the dinner, and awoke to eat only after we were all finished with our meals. I know it won't be that easy for long, so we wanted to take advantage. We thought we would take the opportunity to get a family photo.
Just in case you couldn't see them in that photo, here is another one, to show off Isaiah's super cool shoes that he got from his Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Heath.

Today, Isaiah enjoyed watching the Colts game with daddy. We decided that they needed some luck and let Isaiah wear one of his Colts onsies even though it's a little big. The game is currently underway and even though we are winning, it's not looking pretty!


One last thing to tell you about... Isaiah slept in his big boy bed this weekend. It went really well- he slept for about 3- 3 1/2 hours at a time! I think it's gonna take longer for Daddy and I to adjust to him not being in our room than it will for Isaiah.

Here are a few more pics from this week!
Isaiah was really hungry...unfortunately Daddy's face doesn't have a nipple on it!

Are you lookin at me?

Even when I'm sleeping I can wave at my peeps!

The first thing I do when I get online is check your blog - I immediately get a smile on my face that doesn't go away :-) Isaiah is just adorable. I love the look on Jeremy's face when the baby discovers dinner isn't on big daddy's cheek and Cheryl getting peed on by your little man :-) Looks like you're having the best time of your life. So happy for the three of you and also your family and friends who get to share in this amazing experience with you. Thanks again for sharing through this blog. Love and God's Blessings to you all...Aunt Susie
