Our handsome little man recently received his first haircut...

compliments of Daddy.

If you look closely, it looks like he had a bad toupee.

 SO...off with that hair!

All smiles for the new look!

Good Job, Daddy!!!

Somersaults for B.G. and L.G.

Clare does SOMERSAULTS for...

B.G. = BUSCH GARDENS

and

L.G. = Laney Grace

 We had a terrific morning at the park last week.

Clare loved playing with LG,

and I loved connecting with LG's Mommy...Ms. Courtney.

They enjoyed feeding the ducks...

 ...playing on the Cloud Bounce...

 ...having the enormous sandbox ALL to THEMSELVES...

 ...running through the splash park...

 ...and seeing ELMO!

 (Or "Elpo" according to LG)

GREAT DAY!

GREAT FRIENDS!

GREAT FUN!

FIVE Months and FEEDING!

Isaac was 5-months-old on Saturday, the 9th.

 Things he LOVES:

His sister!

"Standing" and facing out.

Bathtime!

Watching his mommy, daddy, and sister have dance parties.

Smiles!!!

 Getting SO BIG!

Isaac tried his first round of "solids" on Sunday night.

He's taken more of a liking to the rice cereal since this video debut.

"What are you doing to me, Mom?!"

 "Whew...I don't think any hit my tongue."

 "Okay...that's enough!  Get that spoon away from me!"

 "Seriously...I would rather play with my toes."

 Up close and personal.

And, just so you don't think that we forgot about our sweet Clare...

 She's staying busy, keeping us busy, 

smiling LOTS, and making us smile LOTS!

 Nature or Nurture???

Clare, like her Daddy, LOVES birds.

Where Is He Going?

Anyone want to explain this picture?

Orange and Blue...GO HOPE!

As a former Flying Dutchman, I was SO EXCITED for my little man to finally fit into this shirt.  Thank you, dear friend Rachel D.  :)

 Doesn't he look excited about going to Hope College someday?!

 Orange and Blue!

 All smiles for Hope!

 And all smiles for kisses from Mama!
