Feeding Ducks!
A couple weeks ago it was raining all day so we couldn't go outside to play. Later that day Gary was outside grilling and he told me to bring Isaac to the window because there were two ducks walking by. These ducks made Isaacs day, they decided to come right up to our driveway and we made it out there just in time that Isaac could feed them. He was in heaven! Some of his pieces got pretty big so you will see the ducks walking off and then coming back; they would walk to the end of the driveway to soak their pieces of bread and then come back for some more!

Silly Sayings
Most things that come out of Isaac's mouth right now are pretty silly to Gary and I, but there have been a few things he has said lately that I think are especially funny.
When we are in the car, Gary is always putting on chapstick. Of course from where Isaac is sitting he can see daddy do this and then he thinks he needs some chapstick so he always says, "lips daddy!'. So Gary will turn around and put some on Isaac's lips then of course Isaac just licks it off and then he says "lips gone daddy".
A couple weeks ago Isaac started crying at 10:30 at night and I thought he just had to go potty so I went up there and I got in his room to go take him potty, and he kept saying over and over, "spidah in mah eye mommy". It took me awhile to piece it together that he was telling me he had a spider in his eye. I said you don't have a spider in your eye, took him potty and put him back to bed and he quickly settled back down. A couple days ago during a nap he did the same thing, started crying so I went up there and again he is rubbing his eye saying "spidah in mah eye mommy." I said again there are no spiders in your eye, I gave his eyes kisses and said all better and he went down for his nap. Yesterday Isaac and I were sitting on our bed and he started rubbing his eye as if it was itchy and he said, "mommy, spidah in my eye!". So I finally pieced it together yesterday that when his eye itches, somehow he has come to the conclusion that there is a spider in his eye. I have no idea how he came up with that! :)
Today we were getting ready to leave the gym and I was talking to someone so Isaac took a seat on this bench which happened to be right next to the coffee that the gym serves complimentary. As I was talking I saw Isaac take one of the coffee straws and a coffee cup and he got back on the bench to sit and I watched him put the straw in the cup and he sat there playing with that for a moment. Then he sat there with the cup on his lap and he looked up at me and then he very politely said to me with the most innocent face "I want some coffee please, mama." Some of the things he says lately just crack me up because I have no idea how he even knows the word coffee because we do not drink coffee, we don't even own a coffee pot, we don't go to coffee shops or even talk about coffee around here.
Here's a picture of Gary and Isaac going down the big slide at the pool. We got to go to the pool as a family last Sunday and Isaac had a blast going down the slide with daddy, over and over again!

Summerfest!
This weekend is Ankeny's big celebration, Summerfest. This morning we all headed out to the parade and we had a lot of fun, but it was very long...2 hours! Isaac was pretty excited and his favorites of the parade were all the different tractors.
Isaac with his friends Josiah, Kayla & Addy. Isaac was a little timid at the beginning of the parade. 
Still a little timid, maybe all that endless instruction of telling Isaac to stay off the street is actually getting through to him? 
He's got it down now, and he's heading over to the other kids territory. 
About half way through the parade, he's getting a little 'paraded out'. 
I do love my popcorn
How much candy does one 2 year old need, you ask? This picture doesn't even give an idea of how much he got, I think it would probably hit the scales at 5 pounds if not more. Certainly preggo mamma doesn't need that around the house!
