It's been awhile since this has been updated. Isaac is growing up so fast and it's hard to keep up! He's been in his mother's day out program for a couple of months now and loves it. He goes 4 days a week. I'm now substituting there as well. I'll be full-time in the fall. He's learning so many words. He even said his first sentence a couple of weeks ago! "Where'd it go?" He asked while looking under the bed for the ball that rolled under. He LOVES books and brings them to you constantly to look through it with him. He's becoming super independent, especially since going to his "school" as I like to call it. He tells me "no no" when I try to rub his back when he's "playing" naptime. He tells the kitties "go go" when they are sitting in my lap as he's pushing them off of me. He's very jealous and possessive these days. This is one of the biggest hurdles we are dealing with right now. That and his temper tantrums. He actually injured himself the weekend before last when he through himself into the baseboard of the bed and tore the piece of skin between his top lip and gums. It was the first time I've seen so much blood from my poor little baby! Mike and I took him to the Lake After Hours and by then the bleeding had stopped and we were more shaken up than he was. We've been having all sorts of adventures. He loves to go on walks through the neighborhood and often goes over to our neighbors house and invites himself in. He loves to visit the neighborhood dogs too. He's quite the social butterfly! Oh and we got a new bird. His name is Charlie, an 8-month-old Goffin's Cockatoo. He's for our other bird, Gigi who has been screaming a lot lately. Since her roommate arrived, though, the screaming has stopped. I guess she was just lonely...especially with her "daddy" out of town all the time. Charlie is a sweetie but squawks all night because he wants to be on my shoulder. Isaac is torn between jealousy and fascination with him. He likes to let Charlie nibble his fingers but he also ripped a feather out when he was trying to shoe him off my shoulder telling him "go go". I'll have to keep them separated for a while I guess.
That's life for now.
