Mr Isaac

I have the hardest time getting a picture of the boys with their eyes open because of the delay on the digital camera.

His little left leg is always stuck in his pants but yet he still does great!

Isaac is walking like a champ now - his brothers are great encouragers.

So over the last few weeks Isaac has started walking and he is talking so much! I think he learned to walk because over the last 3 weeks Rod and I have been at the church so much painting, cleaning, and decorating the foyer and working on the Christmas dinner that he spent A LOT of time in the church walker which gave him that extra boost and ability to master the art of balance. He walks on his tip toe on the left side but he doesn't seem bothered by it. He was just 16 pounds at 12 months but now at 15 months is 19 pounds so we are making great progress there too. He is talking a ton too here are some of the many words he uses : mama, dada, mom, Drew, hat, shirt, pants, socks, up, down, dog, hot dog, ball, uh-oh, all done, no, yes, this, that, eyes, see, food, milk, cheese, please, baby, shhh, Jesus, big, and the list goes on and on. He will repeat almost any simple word you ask him too but my all time favorite is when you ask him to "Say Colin" he always answers "Drew" - much to Colin's dismay. Well it is just such a blessing to see that he is just as smart as his brothers because when we took him to the doctor for his 9 month appointment and learned of his diagnosis there was a chance that he could have a syndrome associated with it but all the doctors now say there is just no way - and to me his hemihypertrophy is isolated to the leg - his face is still symmetrical and so it is a huge answer to prayer for us. He is SUCH A JOY!
