What we've been up to

Here's a little slice of what we've been up to since our infamous computer crash. (Once again, the photos are unedited and uploaded on the sly at work)

Jane, Josh, and Dave took Isaac to Rockwood Park. Most of the fun toys were wet (story of our summer!), but Isaac still enjoyed this dinosaur.

The park was pretty empty, so the horses were a little more bold than usual. Isaac thought this horse's table manners were hilarious and burst out laughing each time he uprooted another weed to eat.

We can't go to the park without having a swing!

We've been enjoying some local produce lately, and Isaac didn't quite know what to make of this mammoth zucchini. Spencer gave Isaac a slide he was no longer using. Yippee for hand-me-downs! We've been having lots of fun with this thing!



This past Sunday, we helped celebrate Clara baptism. Here's her family gathered around the baptismal font - she's in there somewhere too!

This was Isaac's first occassion to wear his argyle sweater, and Jane couldn't have been more excited about it.

Party Update

We borrowed a scale to weigh the food donations for Isaac's party before it all went to the North End Food Bank earlier this week. Our goal had been for the food to outweigh Isaac. Obviously our idea of how much food weighs is a little skewed -

We gathered 82.5 Lbs! (Just a tad bigger than our boy, eh?)

Birthday Party!

Here are a few picture from Isaac's first birthday party this past weekend. They haven't been edited, because we are without a computer. Our hard drive crashed as a result of a power outage from a lightning storm, and the tech said "it's toast". So far, they haven't been able to retrieve anything from our hard drive. Luckily we have a few picture of Isaac's first year saved on the blog or on web albums, but nothing compared to all the photos and videos on our PC. If you are a wizards and can help us retrieve some things, we'd love you forever!

Cake time!

Not sure whether this cake is for eating or for playing...
EATING!
Best bubble toy ever!

Clara slept through most of the bubble fun

Isaac managed to gather a lot of food for the food bank! He posed (briefly) with the collected donations. So much more than we expected!
