Isaac being Isaac!

Isaac loves to run back and forth from one end of the house to the other, and always tries to get me or Daddy to join him.

They pump their arms the same way! Like father, like son! Isaac really admires his Daddy and tries to copy everything he does!

Toot toot!! He's really into making noise! He loves to play any musical instrument he can get his hands on, and often marches around the house singing songs. One day he started singing a song from church with the hand motions. It was the one about building a house on the rock, and then the rain comes down and the floods come up, etc. He likes to play the piano and sing at the same time, too! Occasionally, he plays the piano with one hand and the harmonica with the other and takes breathes to sing a few notes, too! It's really funny! I'll try to upload the video I took of that sometime soon, when I find it. I've been taking a lot of videos lately, so I'll have to see where I saved it.

Isaac is looking handsome in his new suit he got from Oma and PopPop for his birthday. He doesn't like to wear ties anymore, so as soon as I put it on, he is working on getting it off.

We found a fun tractor to play in at the farm where we picked strawberries! Vrrrn Vrmmm!

Lately, Isaac has been getting this piece of foam out from under his bed and playing "camping" with us. He gets us to lay down beside him and then covers us up with blankets.

Isaac helped Mommy make peanut butter cookies the other day. After he helped me with the cookies, ever since he has been wanting to help me with whatever I'm cooking. I have to try to distract him away from helping me sometimes, because I don't want him near the boiling pots or other hot dishes. He hasn't tried to help me wash dishes yet, but I'm sure that will be next!

Smoothie to Go!

I made Isaac a smoothie this morning as part of his breakfast! He decided to take it "to go"! It was hilarious when he put it in the back of his truck and scooted away! He puts all kinds of things in the back of his truck and pushes them around. Sometimes he wakes up and crawls out of his toddler bed and puts his blanket and two teddy bears (small) into the back of the truck and pushes it into our bedroom. It's soo cute! He also puts blocks and toys into the back of the truck sometimes! This was the first time he's put food in there! I was glad I had my camera nearby! Ha ha!

Walking at Seabrook

Seabrook is one of our favorite parks to visit on a bright sunny day! If you head south towards Kemah, you'll come to Seabrook and its coastal beauty. It has ten parks and more than 100 miles of walking and hiking paths! Parts of the paths where we usually go walking are along the Gulf Coast, which is part sandy and part rocky in this area. There is also a huge fishing pier at our favorite park, too!

He's a big old turtle!

We came across this red headed woodpecker while we were walking, and I quickly snapped this photo.

Then, Jason grabbed the camera and took some photos of this great blue heron, who was perched on an old crag, either thinking of roosting for the night or surveying the channel for a good fishing spot.

This is not Galveston, but with this sandy spot, it almost looks like it. Isaac and Daddy enjoyed poking around the beach and chasing each other around.

It is important that we never miss an opportunity to throw some rocks, or in this case shells, into the water. It is difficult to get Isaac away from this rock/shell throwing activity! He LOVES it!
