My Son

My daughter has been the center of most of my posts so far, but I do not want to forget about my son.   Isaiah means Salvation of the Lord; God's helper.  This little boy is full of spunk and energy.  I am amazed everyday at how fast he picks up on words and he is now at the point of repeating things we are saying (this should be fun) :)   

The other day we were all at a store and my husband had him on his shoulders to keep him entertained.  He is usually non-stop "on the go" and if we put him down on the ground we spend our time chasing him instead of shopping.  My husband wanted to ask a store employee a question and to get her attention he said "ma'am".  Before the employee could turn around and respond, we heard a commanding "MA'AM" from the top of my husband's shoulders.  Everyone who heard got a good laugh!  You don't even realize he is listening.  

Isaiah loves to say hi to everyone in the grocery store, etc.  It must be the age because I hear of other children that do this too.  He gives anyone a big smile and waves his hand and that gets him plenty of attention!

He just looks like trouble!

What a ham!

Isaiah's new thing is to jump.  He LOVES to jump!  Not just on the ground, but now he has discovered he can jump off things. Unfortunately, he has no fear of falling and so that makes mommy a little nervous.  Daddy says he is just being a boy....well I've been to the ER enough with Izzy and I am not ready to start with him.  I think I am more nervous because I always have to keep an eye on Izzy and her balance, but this boy is actually fairly steady.  As soon as it is time to go up the steps, he gets up on the first step, turns around and wants to jump off; if he goes into the bathroom where there is a step stool he wants to jump; the small slide we have is now a playground for jumping because instead of sliding down he gets to the top, turns around and wants to jump off.  At times, he is courteous enough to say "mommy hand" so I can hold his hand, however most of the time he feels it is not necessary to have me present.  

These are the stories I want to remember in 10 years.
