Personality photos

We thought these were some photos that really show off Isaac's personality.

HAPPY!

HANGING OUT!

He is vegging out on the couch.

PLAYFUL!

You notice that his head is behind the crib bumper. He had been playing in his crib. He'd removed his socks and thrown the blankets all over the crib. He was supposed to be sleeping.

Merry Christmas!

HO HO HO!

Like my Christmas PJs???
They are from my Grandma Richins!

I am also looking pretty spiffy in my 1st Christmas bib!

Not to mention my 1st Christmas Outfit

I also played with my cousin Gavin Shoemaker! (He isn't too much fun yet.)

I even got to see Santa Claus (don't tell Grandpa, but that's a pretty lousy disguise. I hope Santa doesn't find out Grandpa pretended to be him!)

Isaac's First Hospital Stay

Well, after about ten days of being sick the pediatrician decided that Isaac's digestive system needed to be reset. They put him in the hospital on Friday afternoon and wouldn't let him eat or drink anything for about 12 hours. (have you ever told a five-month old that he couldn't eat). It was not a fun time for any of us. But, they did give him IV hydration (the after band-aid on his hand). It worked. Around 11 p.m. they let us start giving him sips of pedialyte. He kept it down and the diarrhea ended. We went home about 11 a.m. on Saturday. If we'd have been more prepared (yeah right) we'd have remembered to bring the camera and gotten a shot of him in his hospital gown (which was too small) with all of his IV stuff.

Isaac's First Vacation

Well we finally got Isaac out to see Grandma Great. It was to be a vacation from ****. The week started out with a bang. On Isaac's first plane ride, he ended up having diarrhea and throwing up all over Grandma Greenway and his mother. . .twice. We thought he was just a little airsick until it continued and continued and continued for 10 days! That means it lasted the entire time we were in Utah (with 1 trip to ther emergency room for dehydration) and then for three days after that (the ending is another story). While we were there Great had to go to the hospital also because she was under the weather. We needed a picture of her and Isaac together, so off to the hospital we went (little did we know that we'd be in a hospital ourselves in just a few short days).
