Halloween

This has been a fun week! Isaac has become pretty mobile, and I would bet good money that he will be crawling by the end of this week. He is so close right now, but mostly he moves his bum around to different sitting positions. It's so nice now that he can move around because he is happier to be left on his own. 

Brent has been doing well in school. Last quarter he took his first round of National Board exams. We found out of Monday that he passed! It is a huge relief, and I'm so proud of him. He studied for several  hours every day, and I'm so glad we don't have to do it over again.  

Brent and I used to be really good at sending pictures to family, but we've been lacking. So we made Isaac hand turkeys which turned out to be very difficult. We're lucky we got even one good handprint. 

 Isaac is VERY good at sitting up on his own now. Which means nap time takes forever because I have to go back in every 3-5 minutes and lay him back down. Sometimes I find him in funny positions, and this one cracked me up.

I love going to the park with friends. California has some very nice parks, and luckily the best ones are really close to us! 

We have several elderly women in our court that are the sweetest people. They love to sit out on their porches and talk. Isaac recently stole one of their hearts, Sharon, because he will smile at her now. When he meets new people he usually just stares them down. But now that he's warmed up to her he is all smiles. So she brought by a halloween gift for him, which was so sweet of her.

And now for lots of cute pictures of Isaac, I'm not ashamed to admit I'm obsessed with my child. 

All dressed up for our farmers market

Seeing if pumpkin tastes good

Our church put on a giant Trunk-or-Treat activity Halloween night. It was really fun with games and yummy food.

 Brent's pumpkin is of an atlas bone (aka the top bone in your neck). He is such a nerd, so everything in our life revolves around chiropractic. 

Our Halloween breakfast. Brent came up with this idea all on his own! 

Isaac and I go on at least two walks a day around our neighborhood. He loves being outside, can you tell?
