Isaac is ......

turning 1! I can't believe my baby is having his 1st birthday tomorrow. I look back at this picture like it was only yesterday. Thank you Lord for ISAAC!

My 28th birthday

I enjoyed my birthday so much this year! I planned a girls weekend and we had such a great time together just hanging out. Thanks to the 8 of you for spending it with me, I am so blessed by each of you! As well to my husband for filling in my absence and then taking me on a date last night, he's so good to me!! I love you honey!

Cousins hanging out in their diapers

Do they look alike?

Isaac wears all of Elijah's hand me downs so when Isaac was wearing this outfit yesterday I remembered this picture of Elijah.

San Antonio Rodeo

Jimmy & I went to the rodeo this week. I had to take a picture of this girl barrel racing...I'm not sure I'll ever understand this sport nor a few of the other events at the rodeo. A big highlight was the Brooks & Dunn concert that followed, I didn't realize that most of the country songs I know are theirs.

Who cares about the Superbowl?

Isaac doesn't even care that Grandpa & Grandma just got a great big tv and we're watching the Superbowl!

Isaac's first haircut

He is only 11 months old but he had wings and everyone always referred to him as a "she." Not anymore! I left out the actual pictures of us cutting his hair, he was screaming so much it looked like we were torturing him.

Arctic Freeze

I would post adorable pics of our kids in the snow had we gotten any like the weather man predicted. Everyone was so excited because the last snow San Antonio had was 1985! Instead we got ice. The city shut down literally for almost 2 days, we were stuck inside and the news preempted all shows to keep us up to date on the "Artic Freeze." Woohoo!

Bueno!

Good stuff! There are a couple dining places that I had to learn to live without once we moved to San Antonio, this being the biggest one, but it's all good now! Bueno opened their first SA location two weeks ago, less than 10 min. from our house. Oh yeah the family was there for opening day! I know everyone's laughing, go right on ahead. :-)

Isaac, my sleeper

I didn't think I would ever say this but Isaac is quite the sleeper. On one hand the last 10 months have flown by but I remember at the beginning thinking is he ever going to sleep? This is Isaac this morning after 13 hrs. of sleep! I know I am so lucky! :-) I will probably be putting a post of him walking here soon...he is standing alone but hasn't gotten brave enough to take steps.

Future girlfriend?

Elijah & Addison hanging out, playing foosball. Aren't they cute!

Elijah, the speech teacher

We're driving in the car the other day and Elijah tells Isaac "say dada." He tells him to about 5 times, Isaac meanwhile is babbling but wouldn't say it. Feeling frustrated, Elijah says "ok, in spanish!" Needless to say, Jimmy & I were cracking up. We know this is just the beginning of many hilarious conversations between the two of them.

Spurs game

We got to go to the Spurs game on Sunday afternoon and sit in the suite, which is the best way to take a 3 yr. old! Elijah pointed Tony Parker out immediately, we're so proud! :-) The sleepy boy crashed in the car afterwards.

Elijah's 1st pair of cowboys boots

Elijah & Christmas

Well I got sidetracked a couple days ago and I'm just getting back to this and realized I didn't post any pics of Elijah at Christmas....he loves his CARS stuff!

A few pics....

Daddy & Isaac being silly...All the girl cousins...then Nanell & Isaac.

Isaac loves diapers and so does Mom!

CHRISTMAS!!

We had a wonderful Christmas in Dallas and we have a few pictures to share.

Worn out!

I got a late start on Christmas shopping this year and trying to get it accomplished with two kids is even more difficult. We hit the mall at 11 today trying to get a couple more presents knocked out.... needless to say I left with two tired and cranky boys, and a couple shopping bags. YEAH for nap time!!!

What's up with Santa?

This picture doesn't tell the story behind it so let me go on.....We went to the mall today to get the boys picture made with Santa. We waited through the line once and Elijah kept saying "no, i don't want to" over and over again then when it was our turn, he held onto the gate and threw a fit. I decided no big deal, let's go. But of course once we walked off and I told him we didn't have to, he changed his mind. The bribe was Teddy Grahams and he would only agree to stand next to the chair. What is so scary about Santa? Oh and then we had another melt down afterwards because he told Santa that he wanted CARS stuff and he didn't get anything right then! Luckily Isaac complied and smiled!
