So this is parenting!






I love my baby! Isaac is so cute and sweet, which having him has taught Dan and I what love really means. It gives us just a small glimpse of what GOd's love is. Isn't that amazing! that unconditional love. Now, before you read on, you are probably thinking this is going to be one of those moments...well, i thought i share with you one of the highlights of parenting. It all started out as the family cleaning day...mainly Dan. Dan had got down on his hands and knees scrubbing away at the floor and our filthy bath tub. I was very excited to give Isaac a bath, since its all nice and clean and this "heat wave" here would be nice for Isaac to have a nice bath. So I am bathing him, talking and playing with him when I noticed tiny brownish green pebbles floating around the water, within secounds I realized, Isaac had a BOWEL MOVEMENT. I quickly jumped out with him and put the shower on to rise him off as I let the tub drain. I quickly get Isaac cleaned up and have him play in the hallway as I clean the tub. Gagging and holding my breath, with MY HANDS, I picked up a couple poops before they got a mushy in the water and I had to clean the hard work Dan had put through all over again. Below are some photos for you. Believe parenting is great, but you know you are a true parent when you reached in and grabbed your child's poop out of the tub. Isaac remember this day, because when I am 99 years old, you might be doing the same for me!

the other photos are of Isaac cooling off. If you haven't heard, we are having a "heat wave" of 99 degrees here in the Northwest!
