Flower Child or Anne Geddes Knock Off


I wondering how many pictures Anne Geddes has of children with expressions like this when they are trying to get them into various costumes? If I had to guess what Isaac is thinking it would be "What the HE double hockey sticks are they doing to me now?... and should I cry about it?"

This is what I think of this photo shoot business!
"Lets see if these things are edible."
Heather's godson Jacob holding Isaac.
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Jacob playing with his new toys. Can anyone name the movie they come from? That's right, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I can't believe kids even know about that movie anymore with all the high tech movies out. We have the Black Knight and the murdering rabbit from the cave. You can even ripped off all the Black Knights appendages to reveal bloody stumps. " I will bite your kneecaps off."
After the Jacob family Christmas we came back to our house to put together some of Isaac's new toys. It took Gary and I about an hour to put two toys together.This is Isaac enjoying his new Excersaucer.
Isaac on his new push car, which he might not be ready for yet since his feet don't reach the floor and he can't hold himself up yet.
Daddy teaching Isaac to look both ways before pulling out. I don't want Isaac to grow up to be one of the idiots daddy yells at in the car.
Isaac enjoying the chair his great grandpa Jacob gave him for Christmas.

Christmas at the Stapleton's


Tyler, Heather, Aubrey(5), and Kaydence(2)
Aubrey and Kaydence holding Isaac. The look Kaydence is giving the camera is a classic Tyler look from his early years. She definitely has his attitude also.
Grandpa and Grandma with the Grand kids.
Grandpa reading "T'was the Night Before Christmas" to the Grand kids.
Kaydence enjoying the moment.
Isaac in serious thought about the meaning of the book. Either that or he is working on a poop. I wonder which one it is?
Christmas picture of us.

Our First Christmas With Isaac


My attempt at a Griswald Christmas!
Isaac's first Christmas tree, and our first real tree in the house.
Isaac watching us decorating the tree. Next year I am sure he will be "helping us" by removing decorations daily.
Our sleeping angel under a Christmas angel.
I wrapped this gift late and gave it to Heather as a surprise. Isaac also had a surprise gift for mommy, a dirty diaper.
Isaac learning a new game. The game.. to see if he can fit his entire fist inside his mouth. Once that is accomplished the game becomes "How long can I leave it in there before gaging myself." He is getting pretty good at it. He has all the signs of becoming a thumb sucker.
Just a cute picture.
