I'm a little behind in blogging (not as bad as Shannon though!). There are a few things about motherhood I wasn't prepared for-like Isaac's health scare this week. We feel very blessed that all the scary tests turned out negative and instead he has bronchitis from parainfluenza virus type 3 (I'd never heard of it but it is similar to RSV). Anyway he is getting better so I'll catch up a little. We took a trip to Glacier Park, Montana the end of July for the McOmber family reunion. Glacier Park is beautiful, we had a great time. We didn't camp-thank heavens-but stayed in cute little cabins instead. It was my perfect camping scenario-hang out at the campground during the day, sit by the fire at night, then head 0.2 miles to our comfy bed in the warm cabin.
It was so great to get to spend time with Shawn's family that we just don't see nearly enough- his mom and dad and Heather and Shane and their kids. Heather gave him that cute little John Deere hat- we love it on him! The weekend went way to fast and before we knew it, it was time to come home. We drove at night this time and it went so much better. It about killed Shawn and I but Isaac was an angel and slept the whole time!
Isaac loves his Grandma McOmber! When he was fussy she would calm him down by singing to him. She has such a beautiful voice! Poor kid usually has to listen to me-what a treat to listen to grandma instead! Shawn got to introduce Isaac to his Great-Grandpa McOmber which he has been so excited to do. So far Isaac is the only McOmber on his generation and the only chance to carry on the McOmber name. What a big responsibility for such a little guy!
There was a lake right outside our cabin and the campground. It was beautiful but freezing, so this was Isaac's only experience with the lake. Shawn only lasted about 1o seconds. Shannon and Jamie were really brave-they went swimming with the kids.

Hey that was below the belt! But Glacier was a fun weekend--and I am happy to report that post #3 is up and running. See what a little incentive can do?
I think I saw a picture of Heather's other twin who lives in Africa. That's wonderful that she was able to come to the reunion and meet little Isaac
