4-Months and Counting!

Isaac does not seem much like a newborn anymore. He is SO BIG!!!!
This is the new face that Isaac makes!



He's getting close to sitting up unsupported.

Isaac LOVES bath time... Although, I think he's outgrowing his bathtub! He splashes and coos like crazy when he's in the water. I love it!

I just had to capture this face... We don't let him cry often, but it's so stinkin' cute when he makes his pouty face!

Lovin' time with Daddy

Best Buds...

Fun Facts About Our 4-Month-Old:

ISAAC...

• 
  
  is officially in the roley poly, chunky monkey, FAT BABY stage and I'm totally smitten!
• 
  
  just started to GIGGLE...It is just precious and totally contagious!
• 
  
  is really starting to PLAY. He loves to have something in his hands (and in his mouth)!
• 
  
  has the most CONTENT disposition... I would seriously have a house full of babies if they were all like my little Ike (and I were a bit younger : ).
• 
  
  wants to SIT so badly... He tries really hard, but isn't quite able to do it unsupported!

Back to KS...

We drove from back from IA to KC on Tues for the remainder of our trip. On Wednesday, Uncle Jay and Aunt Gigi drove from Springfield, MO, along with Uncle Joel, Aunt Jen, and cousin Ellie from Manhattan, to spend the day with us. It was a full day but we fit in a lot of fun memories into our few short hours together!!!!

We spent the first part of the day and Deanna Rose petting zoo. We almost got the whole gang in this shot... I'm so sad that we didn't include Isaac in this photo! : (
and their own little conversation!

Wyatt and Ellie holding hands and having a little bonding time...

Wyatt enjoying a sweet treat with Uncle Jay. Jason was very patient... Wyatt wanted to savor every lick...It was like the never-ending popsicle!

I've said it before, Aunt Gigi is definitely a natural with the babies! : )

We spent the second half of our day at the Legends outdoor mall.

Sweet Hugs!

Wyatt and Ellie splashing in the fountains!

Uncle Jay and Aunt Gigi with all of the kiddos!

We sure had a fun day together! Just wish it could have lasted longer....

Iowa!!!!

I have SO many picture so I'll have to spilt our trip into 3 posts! This was our first trip home to see the fam since moving to MD. We pretty much took planes, trains, and automobiles on Friday, but eventually got to Iowa at about 10pm. Everyone did GREAT on the plane ride but Isaac wanted nothing to do with being stuck in a car seat. So our 4.5 hour road trip from KC to IA turned into about a 7 hour drive! It made for one very memorable experience! : ) But once we made it, we had a blast...

Grandma and Papa got Wyatt a stomp rocket which was a huge hit!!!! : )
One of the highlights of our trip was meeting Uncle John and Aunt Sandy... They might just be some of the sweetest people we've ever met! It was a great day so we spent lots of time outdoors playing...


I love this photo... Nothing like Wy guy taking the lead!
Wyatt and his Hawkeye Ball... Thanks Uncle John and Aunt Sandy!

We made a trip over to Aunt Leanne and Uncle Emery's where Wyatt got to ride a go cart...

...meet his second-cousins, Bryce and Akeelah, and kiss Aunt Leanne's horse on the nose!

Love this one of Wyatt and Papa!

Wyatt loves Papa's tractor!

Wyatt got some new shades!

We also made our second annual trip to Tulip Time in Pella, IA!

Another photo of Papa and Wyatt chillin' on the deck!

And there's our little Isaac... Wyatt definitely dominated the photos in IA while our sweet little Ike was snoozing away almost the entire day!

We loved our time together and were sad to see the time draw to an end....

Love you guys lots! Thanks for a wonderful few days together!

A Day Out With Thomas!

Wy guy was so excited to meet Sir Thopam Hatt, but got a little nervous when he was actually up close and personal. Wyatt still talks real big and tells us stories about how they met and that he gave Thopam 'five' (maybe next year)!!!!

We actually got to take a ride on Thomas the Tank Engine!

Wyatt's first real train ride!

Wyatt's late birthday surprise was to go spend A Day Out With Thomas at the Baltimore Railroad Museum!!!

Sweet Tunes!

Wy guy singing his new favorite tune to Ike, "Oh, Happy Day!"

No Comparisons in this House!

One of my big "mommy-goals" is to NOT COMPARE my boys! I want to let my Wyatt be Wyatt and my Isaac be Isaac, so I promise you won't see many of these kinds of posts... Hold me to it! But how could I resist this one? Do Wyatt and Isaac's 3-mo photos look similar, or what?
