Faux-hawk

Todd took this photo of the mini-man while we were at the (very hot) Real Ale Brewing Anniversary this weekend.  He's getting more hair!!!  :o)

Fun Days

Todd pulled out Isaac's Legos for the first time last night.  By the end of the night, Isaac was having great fun bringing me all of the different pieces.  He also enjoyed pulling them off the big red "mat" as soon as Todd would put get them stacked.  I think he's really going to have a lot of fun with them as he continues to figure out how they work.  They aren't quite as foot-friendly as the foam blocks when you step on them, though.

This morning, Isaac needed a bath after breakfast.  He succeeded in smearing quite a bit of his fruit into (and through) his romper.  I decided to give him a quick dip in the tub before his nap.  In an effort to make it quick, I let the water run in the tub while I undressed Isaac and got him ready to get in.  As a result, he had much deeper water than usual.  Clearly, he thought this was wonderful!

WALKING!!!

I believe the videos speak for themselves...

Walking Practice

Isaac is getting better and better at walking.  He is now just as fast with his walker as he is crawling.  It's a matter of time before he's running full-throttle!  I am patient, though, and I am willing to wait as long as it takes.  I can hardly keep up with him when he's crawling as it is...  Unfortunately, none of my videos have yet captured the running commentary we now have going.  Isaac babbles a LOT and usually talks as he makes his circuit around the house.

Grandad came to visit Isaac (and Todd and me) last weekend.  He got to witness Isaac in action first-hand and even helped him practice.

Isaac rarely sits still now, unless we are in an unfamiliar location.  Or he's eating.  He's also getting better with all sorts of sippy cups.

He still loves to play in his sand box.  Jackson is still an ever-present helper.  I can't wait for them to be able to play together!

Another little video of Isaac.  He has 2 walkers and apparently thinks he might be able to move twice as fast if he uses both at once.  :-)
