Some Good Videos...

Here are some of the top picks over the last couple of months. Isaiah is being as entertaining as ever - enjoy!

Here Isaiah is laughing it up with Mommy.  He thought this was quite funny, it went on for quite a while before and after the clip.

We have found that Isaiah likes to stay informed. He loves reading the paper and will often do what he does here in the video. Notice, towards the end of the video, he comes across some apparently astonishing news!

Who doesn't like to pop the air bubbles in packaging? Here Isaiah discovers the exhilaration of positive air pressure being broken free of its containment behind a plastic membrane. 

This clip is back from January when Isaiah tried on his new boots. As you will see, these boots were pretty big and awkward for him, which made for some pretty funny moments. It took some time for him to be able to successfully walk in them. Towards then end you will hear some squeaking in the background, which Isaiah is intent on finding. This is from a cat toy that Salem is playing with.

Spring is Coming!

The snow is melting and the grass is finally starting to grow here in Missoula!  The last few weeks have been busy with house projects and a quick trip to Seattle.  Enjoy the pictures!

Daddy's birthday was in February, here I'm helping him plan out the complexities of blowing out the candle and getting that wish. Angle of blowage, predominant drafts in the room, and ambient temperature are all considerations.

Here is a new airplane clock daddy received, it passed toddler review.

One of several concurrent house projects, a portion of our attic was covered with plywood so we could have more space for storage.

What was in this picture purely a storage room, this room is now a wonderful and cozy guest room!

One of my favorite times is story time just before I go to bed at night. We always read two or three books, and I am now pointing out different animals I recognize on the pages. "Kitty cat" and "doggie" are the favorites, but I am starting to recognize cows, monkeys, and birdies.

One of the first nice days of spring, we went to a park near our house to enjoy the weather.

It was still quite muddy from melting snow, but I did not mind that one bit!

Here comes trouble!

Debating my next destination, puddle or sandbox?

Here I am with Grandpa Reiswig during our quick trip to Seattle. Within moments after this picture was taken, the power went out, my first time doing things by candlelight!
