Life as I Know it...

Right now my life consists of various shades of yellow.  Mustard yellow, mostly.  How is it that I have not written a post about baby poop?  Don't worry, that's not what this post is :)
All that is about to change on Oct. 22nd when I go back to work.   Full time mom, full time teacher, Oh, the stress is setting in.  I handled it well with Isaac, and I am sure I will handle it well this time, it's just hard to think about the transition after being off of work for nearly 6 months.
And now, a photo update...

Above:  Isaac with Nana and Sam with Grandma Jo.  We have been able to spend more time together with my mom and grandma since I have been off work.  It's been so nice!!!
Isaac's poster of do's and don'ts.  If you look really carefully, you will see that each "don't" has a small tear, or rather BITE taken out of it.  Yes, that's right.  When I asked Isaac what happened, he informed me that he took a bite out of each of the "don'ts" because those kids are being bad.  hahaha.

Isaac was waiting for the Circus for almost 2 months.  He has been obsessed with dragons for over a year, so the "Greatest Show on Earth" could not have had a better theme than "Spirit of the Dragon" this year.  Score!

He loved it soooo much.  We took him to dinner and the circus and he was on cloud 9.  This is the first time that he's has a date with just mom and dad since Sam was born.  I loved it, too :)

How cute is this toothless grin?  I looooove this sweet, smiley baby!


Love those long eye lashes

This photo is awesome for 2 reasons.  1. Sam is KIND OF sitting up.  He leans forward a LOT and usually falls after about 1 minute, but it's progress!  He's almost 5 months, I am sure he'll get it down in the next month!  2. His ears are glowing.

That's what younger brothers are good for. 

And lounging around with...
He's tolerating tummy time much better these days, provided we don't ask him to do it for more than about ten minutes.  Also, his hair is looking more reddish to me lately, do you see it? 

Isaac all ready for beddy.


Julie took these cute photos of our fam up Millcreek the other day.

Your boys are so adorable! Can't believe Sam is so big already. Best of luck when you go back to work!

I was totally thinking Sam's hair looked red, before you even said it. It must have at least a red tint.

I love the bite out of the chart photo. It made me giggle.

I am sorry for you that you are so close to the end of your leave, but so happy for me. Ha! I really wish we both could stay home!

Becca you have the cutest family!!! I love how Sam is starting to sit by himself and I agree there is some red in that hair of his. Brother are so much fun, I love reading about all of the new adventures.

The glowing ears are awesome, along with Sam's reddish hair. Isaac and his expressions are priceless!
