Here we come Indiana!

It was a long drive, but it was a lot of fun! We were able to see one of my best friends and her husband, Meredith and Chad.

Here we come Indiana!

We stayed in Springfield, Missouri on the way to Indiana. Isaac liked riding on the luggage cart! This Bass Pro Shop was the first one! It is located in Springfield, Missouri.

Family time!

Hanging at Aunt Stacey and Uncle Stephen's house!

Isaac with his cousin Lauren...she read books to him, talked about the animals, played music, and just loved on him. It made my heart smile.

Isaac gets mail...

Isaac got a card from Aunt Shelley that he loved! She sent him some stickers inside, and we sat down and made a picture with them. He LOVED that as well. It is now proudly posted on our refrigerator.

What a ham!

Oh the many smiles of Isaac. Along with those smiles has come great mischief!

On the beaches of Eleuthera

Beautiful pictures from the beach

Isaac's first airplane and beach adventures

Isaac got to hang out with Micah-his mom and dad are missionaries from our church in Eleuthera. He had so much fun with Micah!


This past summer in June/July 2010, our family had the incredible opportunity to go on a mission trip in Eleuthera, Bahamas. It was Isaac's first time on an airplane. He LOVED it! He liked looking out the window.

I love this picture. Ryan took it of one of my favorite Willow Tree figurines of "Mom and Son". Notice in the background is the picture of Isaac and I when he was 2 weeks old. Love it!

Isaac starts walking

Isaac started walking around 14 months old. He began by first standing alone. Then he went to walking behind toys with wheels, and, within a matter of about a month, he was beginning to take steps all on his own. He was very proud of himself! He enjoyed his new freedom. Now we can't get him to slow down! : )

Some of our favorites

Isaac is around a year here. The pictures outside-Isaac was 13 months old. He is so funny.

Isaac turns 1!

Mammie and Randy hosted Isaac's first birthday party. It was so much fun!






















Isaac's friends at the party include: Molly, Saffren, Anders, Hopee, Kate, Caroline, and family members. He had a blast!

Christmas '09

Christmas morning--Isaac enjoyed opening his firetruck! He also got a football and some other fun things. Sweet little boy!


Isaac helps put up the Christmas lights on the tree. He had a lot of fun!


Isaac is growing and developing so well! He is now almost a year old.
