Happy Father's Day

By -

For Isaac's first Father's Day, we had dinner with his mom, Craig, Zacarias, and Savannah to celebrate. Lisa brought over Memphis Barbeque (our favorite) on Saturday, and we just hung out and visited all night.

The next morning Isaac woke up to a card from Grace hidden by his toothbrush. He was very suprised that being only 6 days old, Grace remembered to get him a card! We got her all dressed up to match daddy for the day.


Next, we were off to make our rounds. The first stop was Isaac's dad's. We didn't have any plans to go over there, but decided to suprise him anyways since the other kids were out of town with their friends. We spent a couple of hours visiting with him, Kim, and Zacarias. Then, we headed over to my dad's. We took Grace to visit her grandpa and enjoyed a couple of hours over there hanging out and visiting with him. Finally, we went over to my mom and Rick's house for a prime rib dinner. It was delicious, and Isaac got to relax and enjoy some time with Gracie.


When we got home that night, Grace needed a bath. Since she wasn't allowed to take one just yet, we gave her a sponge bath. She didn't seem to like it too much and screamed the whole way through. Afterwards though, we cuddled her up in a blankie and she was out for the night.

Grace screaming like crazy.

Mommy got to be the good guy at the end.

All cuddled up in her Elmo towel.

Isaac had the perfect first Father's Day. He got to see all of our families, give Gracie her first bath, and then cuddle with her for the rest of the night! What more could you ask for?

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute

Picture of the Week: The Sleepiest Kid Ever When I pick Perry up in the afternoons, we have to wait for about twenty minutes before Grace and Char get back from school. I actually kind of love it, because it gives me a chance to hang in Perry's classroom when they are doing afternoon crafts. Monday, they made barns out of chocolate graham crackers and marshmallow fluff. Perry's favorite part was eating it, and she shared with her sisters in the car as we drove home. We made salads for dinner, and she kept begging Daddy for bites. He decided it was easier to just share the whole bowl with her. Perry is definitely our best eater of the bunch and loves pretty much everything you give her, including most veggies.   She was being super silly in the bath, so I gave her a mohawk to go with her sass. While I was combing her hair, she found the tweezers on the counter, and kept calling them "teezwers". It was adorable, so I had to get a video.

Mini Adult

I'm officially in birthday planning mode. Grace is going to be TWO in just a month. She's such a mini adult: I can't even believe she used to be as small as Charley! Grace is now sleeping in her own bed all night. She falls asleep with us, but once we move her to her own bed, she stays there all night long. She's also in panties full time. She still has accidents in the middle of the night once in a while, but it's easy to wash her sheet and the waterproof mattress pad. We're officially done with diapers with this one!! Grace has also learned to roll her eyes this month. It's hilarious when I tell her she's cute and she rolls her eyes at me. Such a diva! She tells us she's ready to "go to bet" around 7:30 every night and even around 1:00 every day when she wants to take her nap (I love pre-school for this one). Grace is totally obsessed with pouches. If you don't know what they are and you have kids
