King Isaac

Last Thursday, Isaac turned 2 yrs old, officially. As has become their tradition, the boys crowned Isaac "King For the Day".


Jarod supplied King Isaac with entertainment as his own personal court jester.
 



His Majesty the King did NOT want to take his birthday nap.


In the evening, we had a small family celebration (as opposed to the BIG family party we had a few days earlier). King Isaac's brothers gave him some of their favorite stuffed animals, wrapped in pretty plastic bags. He got more Elmo toys from his mama & daddy as well.
                         The little WalMart cake wasn't as cute as Aunt Emmy's lion cake, but it sufficed. (Toby was hoping for a piece of cake too.)


 
 Isaac is using his fork like an old pro now, except when he has to supplement his feedings with the finger-stuffing method. (I find that to be a resourceful method myself at times......)
 I am just sitting here, in dumb shock, as it feels like he was just born last week.

 How on EARTH did we go from THIS........



 ........and from THIS......


 ..................and THIS........................

 ...............................and to THIS??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's not a baby anymore. He's just one of the boys now. Before I know it, he's going to grow up, take off & fly away from me to live his life. And I will have no more babies to snuggle when I feel sad about that. But I'm so happy he's mine for now. I love you, Isaac Joel. Happy Birthday.
