Rolling baby
Last weekend was my first mother's day! Dan made me breakfast in bed while Isaac laid helplessly on our bed watching mommy chowing down! We had a great day going to church and spending our afternoon walking the antique shops in downtown Tacoma. For mothers day Dan got me this three tiered desert serving rack from an antique store that I had wanted (inspired by our tea experience in Victoria). Dan was so excited when I came home to show me the gift, the first thing I said was "did you get that our of the trash? what a deal!" I felt so bad after realizing he had gone to the antique shop several times tolling Isaac around. But all in all, I love me gift...so girls, tea at my place!
It's amazing how when babies hit their milestones, things just happens so fast. I was getting ready on morning for word, Isaac was on his back playing with a toy. It was probably not even a minute, I turned around and there he is on his stomache. I was like, how did you get there? he just smiled and smiled...he is so sweet. He has been "talking" a lot lately, especially when he gets tired, it's almost like his own personal luallby.
Work has been going well. I can't believe it's been two weeks already. I"m actually not that tired when I get home, which is really nice..I could work out and play with Isaac a little before he goes to bed. He has been eating quite a bit as well...so far, three meals a day of solids, each with rice or oatmeal, one jar of fruit or veggie and sometimes, even a little more of another jar. He loves his food. I can't wait till he can start eating table foods to enjoy the world of yummies! Like mother like son! He also gets crabby when he is hungry too...just like me!
Dan is doing well..he is on CCU this month..with the way our schedule has been, he actually has been the one picking up Isaac early afternoons. I would come home finding them "playing rough" and Isaac laughing so hard he is barely breathing!

We celebrated Becca's 18th Birthday the other day...can't believe she's 18! We went out for Japanese food and had red valvet cake over at our place. I feel the "teens" age seem so far away...well, if you think about it, we are closer to 30 than 20.
So the picture of me that you see...it's me right after this cardio tone class I've been attending MWF. And let me tell you, it kicks your butt. I"ve never worked out so hard until this class. Dan actually laughed at me when I came home, because I was beat red and actually sweating!
So much to update!
So where do I start!!!!
May 4th-a Time of change...as Isaac is approaching 5 months old, he rolled over for the first time. It was so funny, we were just playing on the ground and him doing his hated tummy time just decided to roller over. When he did, he started laughing wondering how he turned around! It was also that same day, I realize, he has a tooth coming in on the top. He has been kinda crabby and not want to nurse or take the bottle and temp of around 99F...it got me worried for a couple of days. After talking to Sally, it really helped ease my worries. I can't wait till that little tooth comes out!
May 7th-Dedication
Dan and I dedicated Isaac at our church as a comittment to raise him to the best of our abilities in a Christian home and introducing him to our awesome God! Pastor Kevin prayed with us and gave Isaac his first New Testament Bible with his name on it!
As for me, I started a contracting job with Dan's hospital as a nurse practitioner. It goes from May to August full time at their family practitice clinic. Being back to work after being off for so long has had some bitter sweet emotions. I miss Isaac during the day at work, but at the same time, I am so excited about my work and being able to help people. Praise God for finding a daycare for him for the meantime. Isaac has been adjusting well. He is such a sweet baby! Dan and I have been taking turns picking him up...He is always so happy to see us! As for motherhood, God willing, I am learning a lot and praise GOd that he is always there to help me.
Dan is doing well. He is nearing the end of his first year, I can't believe how fast time flies...more to come...
