our third

About Isaac:  He is 9 months today!  This little munchkin has quite the personality.  He likes familiarity.  When we are in St. George, or he has to nap other places or at other times besides his normal schedule, he does not appreciate it.  Otherwise he is just as pleasant as can be.  Adam set him up at the sand dunes like this before he could sit up.  He LOVED it and wasn't too happy we weren't letting him stuff his face with sand.
 With Uncle Tyler.  Very puzzling to me, as I don't think I have done anything different, is that he detests anything that is edible.  Dirt, rocks, leaves, paper, and other things will go straight into his little mouth, but as soon as a bit of fruit, or vegetable, or whatever I'm eating, or whatever 20 different baby foods, at varying temperatures, we have offered him, it is met with clenched lips.  And let me tell you he has a strong mouth.  We started shoving stuff in when he would open his mouth to cry, so he just starts crying with his teeth clenched.  So he nurses.  I'm not too worried, just selfishly wish he would move on so I could get some more energy and less stress for babysitters. 
 Here he is with his preferred diet.  And WATER!!!  He loves it.  He will play in the shower in the morning for such a long time.  Sometimes he stays in with Adam, and then me, and then the kids before we take him out.  He is a big splasher and so loves swimming pools and sinks.

 At first he was super obsessed with Lily, but recently he has become a lot more interested in Jackson.  He thinks rough housing is pretty fun and loves to watch Jack be a crazy boy.  Yeah for brothers!
He is crawling now and is just so cute.  He loves his Dad and being upside down.  I love to see little bits of Lily and Jackson in him.  We are so happy to have Isaac in our family!
