Sweet Ride

Isaiah loves his stroller almost as much as mommy does. We go for walks to the grocery store, we have apple picking adventures and we visit Marilyn and Francie (some special Eddie Bauer ladies) who live in the neighborhood.

Nap Time 08.13

I snuck into Isaiah's room and watched him wake up from a long afternoon nap. It took him a while to notice I was there spying on him. Often, unless famished, he wakes up quite happy and full of smiles from his nap.

Roll Over 8.12.08

Isaiah rolled over for the first time today. It just so happens I was trying to take pictures when this happened. I got down at his level, and before I could take a picture of him holing his head up so well, he rolled to his back. Finally, after missing it twice while I got in position, I got him on the third time rolling over. To make sure it wasn't a fluke that he rolled, I tested him in the afternoon in a new location. No problem, he just kept rolling. He is always quite proud of himself after each roll. You can tell when he is about to roll, he focuses his eyes and he starts to grunt.

One Month

Isaiah is one month old today. He has grown and changed so much. Tummy time is a favorite part of his day, he is quite strong. The quilt he is on, was made by Great Aunt Sharon. It is beautiful and great for tummy/play time.

Isaiah is quite a grunter so he sleep for the first night time in his crib. Clint and I slept better and he too is starting to sleep more. This comes with him being more alert to his surroundings.

There have been few days without visitors this past month, between friends, family and neighbors. But also several friends have moved away from Iowa City. Hard to believe Clint and I have been parents for a month, we both think it's pretty special.

Everyone wants quality time with Isaiah

June 12 Day of Dedication

Isaiah and Daddy snuggle in the morning before family and friends arrive for Isaiah's dedication. Later in the afternoon Clint and I dedicated Isaiah to God and His will... more photos to come of dedication.
