30 days of Thankfulness: Part 1

So after checking in on some friends blogs that are doing 30 days of thankfulness...I am walking around the house, thinking about little things that I am thankful for....
So since I am behind doing daily messages, I will give them all in one shot.

I am thankful...

1. Isaac sleeps a full 12 hours at night and still takes one nap per day. Consistency rules.
2. For Chad, and that he is a loving husband and friend, and the best daddy.
3. we found a house.
4. our real estate agent bought us a home warranty that we have used 3 times:)
5. my parents are so involved in my life
6. I can put my car in a garage after 15 months of not being able to...it's sooo nice.
7. I have a good job, and I only have to work part time
8. Chad has a good job and he is really good at his job. I am always so proud of how he does it.
9. for good friends
10. isaac sleeps all night long, i know i already wrote this but i really am thankful for that.
11. that my mail is secure now, and i don't have to worry that people will steal it (like in July!)
12. for my brothers...we really like eachother...that's amazing.

That's 12 days for now...

Pumpkin Patch

I do realize I have neglected the blog...and i still do take a lot of pictures, but they seem to be the back of Isaac, because he is a little runner now. Running everywhere.

Uncle Dan, Auntie Jes and Gio (and Gladys) came over for a sleepover last night and we had a very fun time, watching football, driving by the new house (which we hope to move in on Halloween!), La Hacienda with a pitcher of margaritas, and Rock Band to end the night.

This morning we ventured out to French Prairie Gardens to the Pumpkin Patch. Expensive....but seeing Isaac run around and being with my family....Priceless.

He called each one of them "ball"

Random photo of us in Florence Oregon, two weeks ago. These are our great friends Anne and Nick and them helping put the kayaks in the water. Brad, Chad and I went around the lake. It was raining, but Isaac was with Grammie and Poppa, so I had to do all the "adult" things I could:)

Isaac wishing he was fast like Gio

Jessamyn perfecting the slide, that somehow Dan twisted his ankle on

It's a lot faster than it looks

More pumpkin pics

Cute pic, but that pesky fly on my chin was so gross!

Isaac's fav item...The Slide

Have a great week! We are busy packing and planning to close on the new house, the last week of October. That in a week and a half!!!! AAAHHHAHAHAH!

Food/Naps

The new days of Isaac. Feeding himself (sometimes) and not taking naps. My sweet consistent napper has become a true toddler and refuses sleep. Then what happens is he makes up his naps in the car. So the last few days, I have been staying home and not giving him an opportunity to sleep in the car. Well, yesterday he stayed in his crib for 1.5 hours, not sleeping!
I also think he is trying to transition to one nap per day so we were eating lunch today, planning on naptime after lunch, and what do I turn around to see....


No not that, that's just another cute one of the bath a few days ago...

But, konked out isaac!

Wiped his face and hands and off to the crib. Yippee for me, blogtime, reading and cleaning:)

This is the way Isaac has slept since he was born. Hands behind the head. Even in his ultrasound pics too.

Being a big boy!

We are back to wearing bibs and he doesn't rip them off because he is so fascinated using utensils.

Noah and Isaac

Noah is getting so big. He is walking and they are getting to be more similar now that they are both toddlers.

Bath Time

I want to find a house to buy. Come on in this market is it too much to ask for. We are superberly (sp?) picky, but gosh darn, I am ready to get into our own place.
pooey.
However, Isaac was really cute in the bath last night....










Trying to get the whole picassa download thing right on the blog. Working on it.

quick beach trip

These pictures are out of order, because i have a seriously difficult time uploading photos, not user friendly, so maybe that's why i don't have top pics of hawaii up here yet.
Anyways, chad and I had 2 days off in a row and decided we had to take advantage of doing something out of town, which we HAD to take the doggies, cuz they have been neglected a lot in our family outings.
Therefore, Anchor Inn it is. A cute cottage feel that accepts dogs, 10 dollars more per day. Awesome rates! No view of the ocean, but so cozy, it was a great time being together. And the service was awesome. The staff were so sweet and professional. i love good service!

Random photo of the cake roberta got for Amy J. and Lexie. Isn't it cute?

Another Random photo of the work gang kids.

Alright back to Anchor Inn. Isaac obsession continues with sunglasses.

He is a little OCD with them, they have to be on a certain way. But he doesn't leave them on very long, then gets whiny to have help to get them back on. Toddlers:)

entry into bedroom. I don't know why i love bead entries. Cracks me up.

Off to California, to visit with my Dad's family on Fri. 1st time visiting Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa for Isaac. We are sooo excited. Whole Sajko family heading down.

Caden and Isaac

These pictures would be much cuter without mean daycare lady sitting in the background. She wouldn't even push her own kiddos she brought. The little girl asked Christi, "Will you push me?" Makes me happy that Isaac always has someone he can trust to push him on the swings.

silver creek falls

zoo!

The new baby Elephant Samura (I think). Just turned 1, a few days ago:)

He followed the elephant around

Looking at the seals...Well visiting them again after Chad swam with one in Maui.

Isaac didn't really get the whole animal thing, but it was fun, any animal that was out and about was awesome, turtles, fishes, polar bear and elephants were the favorites.

Isaac's new words: I-sthich! and baah
