Our Baby Is ONE

Well, the day has come...our baby's first birthday. Everyone says this, but time really does fly when you are having fun. We have had so many special memories in one year and I just can't even imagine what is yet to come. We celebrated the occasion by having a special birthday lunch with Isaac at Uptown Cafe in Noblesville. The Ehrgotts joined us and then we went to get cupcakes! Isaac's Grandma and Grandpa came over for birthday dinner that evening! We had Isaac's explorer themed birthday party the next afternoon. The highlights were family and friends joining us to celebrate, an indoor obstacle course, Isaac's one year video, the hot dog bar, and the campfire and s'mores. Here are some picture highlights:

11 Months Today!

Only 1 month away from a year! I remember one year ago when we were anticipating Isaac's arrival and dreaming about what he'd be like and how he'd look. As he grows, we are finding that his he has such a sweet and fun personality. I never could have dreamed of just how blessed I feel to be his mommy! Here he is standing...he's been able to do this on his own in the last few days!

Snow/Ice Storm Fun

We've been inside a lot lately because of this interesting weather. Hopefully the sun and warmer temperatures are here to stay...we can only hope!

It wasn't all bad to be inside because...

-I finished a project I've been wanting to do. It's called a "Busy Book". I used several craft blogs that had suggestions on making it and then came up with some of my own ideas. Basically, it's a book full of things that Isaac can do during long car trips, plane rides, or other quiet times. I included some pictures...

-Isaac enjoyed obstacle courses and forts made out of pillows. The ball pit has been a hit, too.

10 months

Matt and I have decided to be creative and make a "ball pit" for Isaac. We have been successful, so far. We've used PVC pipe and fabric to cover. Can't wait for the little guy to get a chance to play in it!

As Isaac hits 10 months, and nears the first year, we've been reflecting on this year...how wonderful it's been and how fast it is going. We're reminded to cherish each moment with loved ones!

Here's Isaac standing next to his almost finished "ball pit". He's just waiting on us to fill it so he can play!

Isaac's First Christmas and 9 Months Old!

Some highlights from the big days which included:

~precious time with the Barnhart Family and the VanOsdols

~a Nerf gun war with the VanOsdol boys

~amazing time hanging with the Ferguson/Wineinger family

~Isaac turning 9 months old on Christmas day!!

8 months

Isaac turned 8 months and had his first Thanksgiving all in the same day. I couldn't be more thankful for the blessing of this little man in my life. I'm even more excited to share Christmas with our family of 3!

Fall Fun

We spent some time at the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday! Isaac experienced his first Fall traditions and had fun playing in hay, picking out a pumpkin, and enjoying the fall atmosphere (even though it was almost 90 degrees out that day)!

Fall is here!

The weather has been beautiful today. We took advantage of it and headed to a cute park in Carmel with Amy, Kev, Jack and Kate. We got some great cousin pics!

6 months!

My baby is half way to a year! Can't believe he is sitting now. Time flies when you're having fun!

Lake Monroe/Bloomington Day with Ehrgotts

Ferg/Ehrg time over Labor Day weekend! Lots of memories made:)!

5 Months

Our baby boy is 5 months old! So much has happened in this short time...it really does go FAST! He is now eating baby food and rice cereal and loving every minute. He loves to read. This past week, he has been rolling all the way across the room. We are having so much fun with this little guy!

4 months

Isaac is 4 months old today. I can't believe it. We had fun as a family at the pool today. Isaac sat under a shaded pool raft and floated for a while. He didn't love it like we thought he would, but we know he will soon enough. He is a happy boy and a good sleeper! He's rolling over and laughing so much. We are loving every minute!

New!!

NEW is the word of our July4th weekend! Most importantly, a NEW baby was born in our family. My sister Ali and her husband Evan have their first son, Josiah Christopher. He was born on July 2nd and things are going so well. We might as well just call him Evan Junior because he looks just like his daddy! We were able to hang out with some wonderful friends this past weekend, as well! The Johnsons, Tuckers, and Fergusons got together for a relaxing day by the pool. Isaac got in the pool for the first time and seemed to like it. But his favorite was laying naked on a blanket under a shaded tree. All NEW things for him!

3 Months

Our tiny man is 3 months today. I just compared these pictures to 1 month and he has changed so much in such a short time. The new milestones include TONS of laughter, lots of smiles, sticking his little tongue out at us, and hold things in his hand:)! Big Boy!
