Isaac turned 6 months old on the 20th! Usually people say time flies, but I'm going to say, it seems like about 6 months since he has been with us. He is having all kinds of new developments every days now. He really swivels well on his belly, and even got up on all fours last week like he wanted to crawl!!! We are still waiting on that first tooth.
Nothing too exciting happened this last week. Saturday morning we found every rummage sale advertising a jumperoo within a 60mile radius and finally found one that hadn't sold theirs on the 4th house. Then we went and enjoyed some awesome Chipotle. It was a great Saturday!
This is what a jumperoo is. Time to Jump AROUND!
What do you want?
Grace beating on Isaac once again. She better watch out in a couple months!
As most of you know, we made the decision after Isaac was born, that I was going to go to work and Travis was going to stay home with the kid. Don't worry, there is a method to our madness!!! Since January 17th, it has been quite an adventure. Sharing what it's like being married to a stay-at-home dad could almost be a whole blog in itself. There is a funny moment EVERY day! For instance, today, I picked up a few ingredients on my way home from work to make spinach and artichoke dip for supper. Travis makes supper every night, and after I brought home my fun idea for an app, he was all flustered, saying "Your totally complicating my meal plan tonight" This is funny, because I used to react the exact same way when I would have a meal planned and he would throw and "fun" kink in it. A few other things of amusement that have happened in the last few months...
One day I came home and he had surprised me with a cake he had baked me (German Chocolate- my fav) and then went on to brag about what an awesome deal he got on it at the grocery store. Cake mix was a $1, frosting was $2. He was very proud.
Another day I came home and he had put a very complex boobie trap together that was supposed to fling a rubber band from across the room into my face. Too bad for him I was on to his game as soon as I cracked the door open... things just didn't look right!!!
I get the same text message numerous days... "We really miss you, MOM! Hurry home today!!!" ...right...:)
And now some pictures and videos from dad's time with Isaac. First up, Travis reading in his best George Bush voice, bedtime stories to Isaac.
First Day on the Job!
Fun at 5:30 AM!
Watching dad run at the gym
Almost everyday when I come home, the both have their shirts off?!?! I don't get it!
Helping do laundry (notice, shirts off... AGAIN!)
Suff a pillow into a laundry basket, cover it with a blankie and - BAM new place to hang out! (Naked, of course)
It's finally MAY! YAY! Sun is strong and shining, but it seems to not want to warm up anytime soon. So fortunate that we moved out here and lived through the most humid summer (did not appreciate that when being all pregnant) and now one of the coolest Spring's on record. Oh well...could be worse.... we could live where it still SNOWS in May...Here are some pics from this weeks.
Getting so good at sitting up!
Having fun with mom... giggles every evening for over an hour straight! 5 months is a FUN age!
Already as multi-tasker. He can chew his hand and grab his foot at the same time.
Going for a May-Day stroll outside! Sunny, but chilly!
