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 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!
