Happy Thanksgiving

So we have been enjoying this week with Gary on vacation. We were going to go somewhere warm, but the weather has been just as warm here so we decided to stay put. Isaac has enjoyed having Gary around more often - so have I. We decided to buy a season pass to the children's museum and I think it will be great to have during the winter months. It is so nice that he can go and play indoors and get his energy out. Here are a couple pictures of our adventure to the museum.
We also had some friends who were unable to use their Jazz tickets and kindly offered them to us. We had a great time and had some really good seats. They won the game which makes it even better. Isaac wasn't too sure of all the noise at first, but he got into it after the first half.
A couple of weeks ago we had a pretty good snow storm and Isaac loved playing in the snow so I have included a couple pictures of that too.
We just want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

Keeping Busy

It is amazing how fast time keeps going by. We have been very busy with raking all our leaves and I am so thankful for our garden because we just throw all the leaves in there without having to put them in bags. We decided to put up our Christmas lights, but don't worry they won't get turned on until after Thanksgiving.
Well our exciting news is that I am 11 weeks along and am doing really well. The first 10 weeks were a little more miserable than I would have liked, but once I heard the heartbeat I have felt much better. We keep telling Isaac that mommy has a baby in her tummy and he is really cute with the news. He likes to kiss my tummy and he likes to say that he has a baby in his tummy too! So that puts us due around June 5 and I am hoping to go early like I did with Isaac - so my thoughts are due in May!
Gary has talked me into selling our BYU vs. UTAH football tickets. We sold these 2 tickets for more than I paid for the whole season and now we get to watch the game on TV without the drunk guys behind us. The last game vs. TCU was a little crazy and I know the next game will be much worse. I am kind of bummed that I don't get to go, but I will get over it.

Big Boy

So we finally put Isaac in a big boy bed, well actually it is a toddler bed, but he loves it. He sleeps really well and he hasn't tried to get out of bed yet. The first couple of times he would yell for me when he was ready to get out of bed. He is so much fun right now.

We have also been to several Halloween activities and we still have a few more, but here are some pictures.
This is his friend Addi. Isaac loves to play with her and they get along pretty well.
This is his friend Alex. They have fun playing, too!

4th Photo Tag

So this is a tag to post the 4th photo from the 4th folder. This is what Isaac did most of the summer. Playing with his baseball.

Need to vent

So this afternoon Gary and I decided to take Isaac to Murray park to walk around while the sun was out. Of course Isaac ran straight for the playground where all the school kids were playing since school had just ended for the day. Anyway, we let him just play with the other kids for a few minutes. He immediately went and was watching 3 older boys play with a bouncy ball. As usual Isaac was carrying his little football. All of a sudden one of the boys, probably around kindergarten or first grade, came up and kicked Isaac in the chest where he was holding the football. I immediately ran and grabbed the boy by his arm and told him that was wrong and he needed to say he was sorry. I had to repeat myself 2 or 3 times, because he just stood there. After he said he was sorry I asked if his mom was there and the older brother said yes. I told him to go and tell his mom that he just kicked a little boy. Gary came over and we made sure that Isaac was fine. While he was walking to his mom he apparently told her that I pushed him and she started to yell at me. Well everyone knows I am not the type to just back down while being yelled at and I told her what the real story was. I was so furious because she wasn't even watching her children. She was on the other side of the playground talking. I get so mad when parents don't pay attention to their children. Boys will be boys and I know he was probably trying to kick the football, but that made me so mad!!!

Game Night

Isaac had so much fun playing with our Uno game, so here is a short video of his reaction. We did this for over 30 minutes. His laugh just made me laugh!

Fall Time

The weather was beautiful today so our playgroup decided to go to the zoo before the cold weather kicks in. The kids had a great time and of course Isaac fell asleep on the way home. He was having such a great time playing on the playground and seeing the animals.

This morning after the bath I let Isaac run "free" so I could get ready. I came out of the bedroom to see him sitting in the rocking chair drinking his juice and holding his football. He is all BOY!He called me into his room the other day and I couldn't figure out why he was yelling. So of course I grabbed the camera and he stopped yelling to say cheese.

On Sunday we went up City Creek Canyon with some friends for a wonderful afternoon hike. The leaves were very beautiful even after the rain storms Saturday and Sunday morning. Isaac had fun running up the mountain with Madi and Lauren. He came home and crashed for a 3 hour nap!


Yes, we had to stop to pick up rocks. Most of the time they ended up in his mouth.
I was cleaning out the trunk of my car and found his floaty from the pool this summer. So he wanted me to blow it up and then later on he climbed up on the couch (while still wearing the fish) and asked to watch "Nemo". How can you refuse such a cute face!
