The nieces and Isaac having fun :-)

more Mommy & Me.

Mommy & Me class once a week continues to be awesome while our little man builds his social skills and is constantly exposed to new experiences and information.

For him though - it is all music, reading, and play, while mom gets to chat with other parents and realizes that she is not alone in many of her experiences as a first time mom.

(These were taken from my phone so are a bit grainy.)

Playing with Kira in the corn meal [sand]box.

Finger painting.

Playing with the teacher's home-made kool-aid play-doh.

gift from London.

Grandma and Grandpa Sherwin went to London (along with a few other places) and brought back some fun gifts for the family including this wooden double decker bus. Isaac loves playing with it - Thank you!

blessings.

finger painting.

We have been getting interested in coloring, painting, etc. So finger painting sounded fun, but I was anticipating messy, so outside we went in the diaper - classy if you ask me.

Look at that belly!!

Woah, what is this stuff?

Too much fun :)

bubbles.

Summer + Toddler = Bubbles! Grandma Joy brought over bubbles the girls had a great time blowing them at Isaac. He just wanted to pop them all!

related?

Do you see it? I SO see the resemblance! Eric just laughs at me and doesn't see it, but sitting on the floor today, looking up at my two boys - it was so remarkable.

Happy Birthday Carly!

To our beautiful niece Carly ~

HAPPY 11TH BIRTHDAY!!

We celebrated with family dinner at Ferraro's in Ventura and will party at the local pizza/arcade this week.

Love you!
Aunt Jen, Uncle Eric, & Cousin Isaac

snuggle time.

We love snuggling with Daddy. So precious.

precious.

How can you not love this face?!

Mommy & Me.

Isaac & I had our first Toddler/Mommy & Me class.

Since Day 1 he has always been clingy - nothing changed when we entered the class. He was unsure for the first 15 minutes, got much better once he was able to play on the playground. Hung out with our friend Kira.

Around snack time, the sleepy eyes set in. Yet, he was a champ, hung in for another hour and passed out in the car.

I am looking forward to a fun semester and hopefully meeting some cool new friends.

bath time.

naked time.

This is how we like to watch tv in the evening...

He just loves naked time :)

India.

Eric had to travel to India for 7 days - commence operation single parent week for me. Thank goodness for Skype and Google Voice - free internet and video calling - we are able to chat with Daddy through the week.

This morning (Eric's evening) we had a nice chat.

Blowing Daddy kisses good-bye.

We can't wait for Eric to get home soon and safe!!

I LOVE this smile - cue belly laugh

travel town.

Isaac is totally into trains. So we headed down to Travel Town in Griffith Park by the LA Zoo. He loved all the old trains and after a few tears, was cool with the train ride.

He really loved pointing out all the trains to Daddy and picking up pine cones.

Couldn't end the day without getting a train from the gift shop. He didn't put it down for a week. That's a LONG time in toddler-hood, lol.

Till next time...
