Making new friends

Isaac doesn’t seem to think anyone else can be his friend beside his cousin Maren and friend B from daycare. Nick and Isaac were in the  check out at Target and a little girl asked if he wanted to be friends and he said he already had a friend!  Nick told him he could have more than one, and he said, “but she can’t even come to my house!” I guess he has pretty high standards for what friends are.
We are learning that is very sensitive when someone doesn't say hello to him, when he says hello. It's ususally because they didn't hear him. Sometimes he has been very upset, as in crying, or he keeps saying, B didn't say hi to me, he didn't say hi to me.
We like it that he is sensitive but I also want him to stand up for himself. Which I think (hope) is big enough to protect his self. If not, linebacker Lucas will be!

Alive and well!

We are alive and well! I've been MIA for the past months but still taking pictures. Not sure if anyone even checks this thing anymore.

Quick recap from the past few months...

Isaac--started preschool and loves it. I feel it's the only way to get him to go to bed at night, we remind him he has school the next day. But sometime it doesn't always work.

He's growing like a weed and already up to my waist. I know it doesn't say a lot because I am short but he is only 3 1/2!

He reminds us (almost daily) he'll be 4, then 5, then 6!

Lucas is eating us out of the house! One of us might need a part time job just to fed this child!

He's walking and started about a week after his 1st birthday. He is into everything. Definitely more than Isaac ever was. He's repeating a lot of the words and Isaac is our interpreter. Half the time they aren't real words but Isaac makes them real words. He has a mind of his own and will let you know if he doesn't like something or wants Isaac or the dogs near him.

Will post more pictures soon!
