From Isaiah

So last night, it was weird. Something was just missing?! I saw my mom throw clothes into a box of some sort and then the next thing i know she drove out of the garage??? That was weird!!! I have never seen her leave like that. Then at night, she never came back. My dad told me that she was going to some far far away place and that it was me and daddy time now till Monday night. WOW, thats a long time. So dad tried to put me to bed at my normal time, but i just had this missing feeling inside of me... I miss my mommy. I finally fell asleep.

This morning, i awoke to find just my daddy, and then i remembered, mommy is gone till monday :( I miss you mommy.

Mother's Day

So, Mother's Day was awesome.  Josh was a playing a loving husband who just let his wife do nothing!  I did absolutely nothing.  I think I maybe changed Isaiah's diaper a few times since Saturday.  I wish it was Mother's Day weekend every weekend...I forgot what sleeping in felt like until Saturday morning.  I told Josh that next year for Mother's Day I would just love to do nothing and relax.  I think Sunday was pretty hectic because we were in and out of the house all day...so next year we're aiming to do just nothing.  I want to sit in front of our t.v., eat a bunch of lard, roll over, etc.  Just nothing.  I like that.  

I took Isaiah outside today and this what he did:

Isaiah sliding down some boulders.

Isaiah on the ground after sliding off boulders and running down slight hill that grass needs some mowing.

Also, Isaiah grabbing his area over the weekend because his area was bothering him.  Remember the yeast infection?

First Time For....Anything

Isaiah has been a little uncomfortable for about a week now.  I couldn't figure it out.  It starts with his night terrors, then his constant ear infections.  We almost were ready to have tubes put in his ear but ENT doctor said that we could wait a little longer since most babies grow out of ear infections.  So, for his constant ear infections we've had to give him medications and lots of different kinds.  Last medication was some kind of antibiotic.  For a week now he's been doing this puppy drag with this tush.  Its the funniest and cutest thing ever to watch!  I can't help but just watch him freak out and drag his butt across the floor!  LOL  Anyway, he's been having this rash and it just wouldn't go away.  I finally took him in to been seen and turns out that the antibiotic that he was on caused him to have a yeast infection!  This would be his first yeast infection!  Can you believe that a child that young could have adult diseases?!  My jaw dropped a little when I was in the doc's office because I just couldn't believe that someone so super young could have a yeast infection.  Mr. Doctor said that it was normal and common since he was recently on antibiotics.  We're watching Shrek right now.  Isaiah just loves it!

Also, we finally put our home up for sale!  Yay for us!  We'll see how it goes.  I hope its worth all the cleaning and work we put into this.  Its so tiring trying to keep a home clean with a nutty child like ours!  Funny thing yesterday - My co-worker and I went to see another co-worker that just had her child on Thursday morning.  He was only 5lbs 13oz so he was super small.  Anyway, I brought Isaiah along and you know what he did?  He smacked that 5lb child!  Not once, but twice.  Thank goodness there was no cry but his face was bright cherry red!  Isaiah is definitely made of slugs and mud.  

Well, this is Isaiah after the visit to the doctor again today!  Oh, and there's another noggin on his forhead from falling on some cement.  Its right above his eyebrow.

Narrated by Isaiah..typed by daddy

So today was very interesting... Dad picked me up at 2pm... i dont know why, because normally he comes at 430???  He drove extremely fast...then he turned off the free way thinking it would be quicker, lol.  He was wrong.   I think we were behind every slow moving car and hit every red light.  We ended up going to a ENT place.  All i know is that they gave me a wooden train engine and then i pooped my diaper.  Dad ignored it for awhile, while i played on the wooden tracks.  Then some girl came over to play on the tracks, so i took her cars so that she could not play on the tracks.  Then i got scolded by dad.  I guess he was watching after all.  Then he changed my diaper..i almost squirmed out of the diaper changing station..almost.  So then a lady called my name and we went into a sound proof room.  She tried to put this thing on me, but you know i wasnt having that.  So i just squirmed out of daddy's lap everytime he tried to put me there.  I dont like padded rooms.  So then they finally gave up.  Next another guy came and looked into my ears with a light thing.  He said i am ok and we left!!!

Whoo hoo...then dad took me around our house.  I was scared to run in the grass..but eventually i liked it.  We sat in the sun for awhile.  Then dad started throwing this ball at me, so i decided to try and catch it.  Guess what??? I caught it!!!  IT was really cool.  Hopefully he does this with me tomorrow... See you guys later!  

What A Long Weekend

Hi all,

Its Elle.  Isaiah and us had a very long weekend.  Our weekend started on Thursday night when we left for Minneapolis.  We got to my mom's house around 1030pm and when we got there Isaiah just wanted to stay up.  What a cracker.  We started Friday morning really early - Isaiah is our morning rooster :)  He loves to make sure we're up and ready.  This is every morning that he does this to us.  We start with meeting at a bakery all the way in Woodbury (we literally had to charter a flight out there from my mom's place) and made some changes, did some cake tasting, added some things, agreed on a design and wrote a check.  Next, we head over to Midway Party Rental where we did some adjustments to our previous order and wrote another check.  Josh and I contemplate and bicker when and where we should eat because our hair appointments are next at 1pm.  We get there and I start first because my sister will be picking me up for Tommy's "Bring a Special Person to school Day."  My sister is stuck in traffic and we're 10-15 minutes late already.  When she picks me up she's waiting at a stop light and the light turns green but she doesn't drive because she's waiting for me to come to the car.  All the while, there are cars behind her honking their horns.  She moves up to the next corner but stops again because I hop in the car and there's cars again honking at us.  I'm laughing inside because she thinks she's the only car on the road!  LOL.  She runs a red light and the cars that were honking at us are all stuck back at that red light.  Again, I laugh inside because my sister is on the phone.  Haha.

Anyway, we get some more things done.  Meet back at my mom's place so that we can leave again to celebrate an early Mother's Day since I was in town.  We get back home and we're all tired.  We put Isaiah down to bed and a couple of hours later the little nugget starts wailing and will not go back to bed.  We give him some jell-o and he's cool.  We try to get back to sleeping and I smell something funny so I try to change Isaiah's diaper but its dry.  It was just a really foul smelling fart.  Darnit - because he woke from this and would not go back to bed.  I'm tired, Josh is tired and there's no sleep for us.  I'm awake from being awake all night.  We have a long Saturday.  I'm not going to go into Saturday and Sunday because I'm tired of writing this blog so its going to end here.  I would like to say Isaiah is giving me very little hope that there will ever be sleep for me and that he deserves a brother or sister.  Right now, he will have to enjoy himself and his stuff animals...
