Six months old!


Isaac turned 6 months old today! We didn't do a lot but Grandpa and Grandma Erickson spent the day with him yesterday. We decided Isaac needed to stay home and nap today. Our friends came over with their son, who is 2 months older than Isaac. The boys had tons of fun playing together.

We got a new camera and haven't had a chance to download the software. That's why there hasn't been an update for a few weeks. As soon as we get the software on the computer I will upload all the great pictures I've been taking.

Isaac has found a new toy: a Diet Coke bottle. He tries to eat it and then ends up with the cap in his mouth. He gets so excited when we put it in front of him. He has also discovered that his toes can go in his mouth. This is lots of fun when we try to put a diaper on him. He also likes to grab my arms when I'm diapering him. Always a challenge!

We got Isaac's 6 month photos done the other night. It was not an enjoyable experience, not because Isaac wasn't doing well but because the photographer was terrible! He kept scaring Isaac with these jingle bells and we hardly got any poses with a genuine Isaac smile. We managed to find a few.

Look Mommy! I have toes!



Isaac has found his feet and is joyful about showing them to everyone. He hasn't figured out that he can get them in his mouth but he is close.

This week has been rough since I caught Isaac's cold. The toughest thing about being sick is that I don't get enough sleep. Isaac was up 4 times last night, twice before midnight. I think he may be cutting a tooth or he may have had a tummy ache. Hopefully tonight goes much better.

I don't have a lot to write about and Isaac is trying to help me type today. He probably needs to go down for another nap. I got these last photos of Isaac last week in the exersaucer. I thought they were pretty good.
