Happy baby


Isaac is smiling and laughing more and more every day and honestly I don't think there is anything cuter in the whole world. It absolutely makes my day when that little boy smiles at me. I am finding so much joy in being home and being his mom. I can see why motherhood is such an important privilege for women, I have never done anything that is more rewarding.

Robli's goodbye party


Sunday we went to Craig and Liz's house for a goodbye party for Robli. She is going to Connecticut to be a nanny for 5 kids (brave girl). I love that my extended family still gets together so often and is so supportive of each other. It's so fun to have little Isaac now to bring to these family events, the family is growing more and more with all these babies!

Becky's baby shower




Saturday I went to a baby shower for Becky and baby Daxton. Daxton and Isaac are only a few weeks apart in age and I'm so excited for them to grow up together. We have had 3 little miracle babies in our family in the last year! What a blessing.

Dinner at Carinos





We had a busy weekend. Jim and Erin were in town so Thursday we went to Salt Lake and went to dinner at Carinos with them, Jamie, Shawn, Shannon and Sydney. We had a great time and the food there is awesome. Shawn and Shannon had been telling us about their nachos and they were every bit as good as they said. (nachos at an italian restaraunt, weird.) Isaac got to be a big boy and sit up to the table with us, it was so cute) Friday night they all came to our house, we went to Cafe Rio then back to our house to watch a movie. I love spending time with Shawn's family. I joke that I really married him for his family, which of course isn't true, but I did get quite the package deal.

Isaac's first road trip


June 13-16th we took a trip to Kennewick, WA so Isaac could meet his Greatma (my Grandma Ba). It was Isaac's first trip and it seems he doesn't love road trips! The drive down was a little rough, but we finally made it and he forgot really quickly how mad he was to be in the car seat for so long. We had a great time visiting with family (we spent time with Grandma, Ben and Renee, and Shawn's cousin Steve and his family) and enjoyed getting away for a few days. The drive home went much better because we left really early in the morning and Isaac does much better earlier in the day. All in all I'd say the trip was a success!

2 months old!


On June 13th our sweet little boy turned 2 months old. I can't believe how time flies! He's getting so big, he is 11 pounds 1 ounce now and 22 1/4 inches long. He is learning new things every day, he smiles and laughs more and more and he loves to look at his toys and books. These 2 months with him in our family have been so amazing, we treasure every moment with our little miracle baby!
