Photo Session

The boys had a little photo session with Jenifer Howard back in May 2011. Like I said I am trying to catch up on my posts. I think she did a fantastic job! See for yourself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Soccer Monster

Our Izaak joined a soccer team at the YMCA.
Their team name was the Sharks.
It was sure fun to watch and cheer our 3 and 4 year olds.
Izaak you made us proud!! Just a few pics for your enjoyment:

Got Twins?

Grandma and Grandpa Fierro got the boys matching outfits for Christmas. I think they are the coolest twinsters around. So cute!

10 Months

As you can see there is no stopping Izaiah when it comes to eating.

He gets very creative when it comes to food.

It makes him so happy!

Special Visitors at Daycare

This is community helpers week in Izaak's class at daycare. Izaak was pretty excited when the firefighters visited his class to talk about fire safety, but what made this experience even better was that one of the firefighters happened to be his tio (uncle) Jonathan! Thank you Jonathan and Sean for the service you provide to our community and for having no fear when surrounded by a bunch of 3 year olds. You guys are awesome!
When we asked Izaak what they talked about in class today, he said "Fighterfighters are our friends." Silly boy!

Our Sunbeam

Primary already? I can't believe our little boy has joined primary this new year. It is a reminder that our wonderful boy is growing so rapidly. Zak and I tried to prepare Izaak about joining the big kids class and he really seemed happy about it. Sunday came and on our car ride to the chapel Izaak says, " Mami I don't want to go to Primary." I mentioned again how much fun he would have. Then it was time to take him to primary and Izaak was a little nervous but he was brave and sat down with his Sunbeam class. Zak and I visited the Primary quite a few times and Izaak did wonderful!

Santa Baby

I may be a little bias because I am his mother but I think

he is the CUTEST baby ever.
Love , love , love those cheeks!

Disney On Ice

Izaak's first class field trip was to Disney on Ice - Toy Story! Boy, was he excited to go. Zak and I decided to come along for the show. I cannot deny that I was super excited too.Izaak's hero was Buzz Lightyear. When Buzz was not on stage Izaak asked when he would come back. We had a great time and loved watching Izaak's reaction to all the lights, music and to the best toys in town.

(Sorry for the blurry pictures - I forgot to charge the battery.

I'll try to be prepared next time)

What did you do?

Wednesday was boys only night while mami was at a RS activity. This is what happened while I was away...

After

Remind me to hide the scissors next time I set foot out the door. Yes, Zak is in trouble!

Is it too early for Christmas?

Our boys think not!

They had their pictures taken at daycare and I think they did an amazing job. I am just in love with this one. I have two handsome boys, agree?

8 months

I can’t believe my little bear is 8 months today. I feel so blessed to have Izaiah in my life. He is so cuddly and just a wonderful baby. His laughter is so contagious and it makes all those that hear it just smile! Zak and I are trying to encourage him to crawl since he can get into crawling position (on his hands and knees) but has not quite got the moving part. He is just content scooting. It’s pretty funny to watch him just drag his body from one side of the living room to the other. Izaiah’s favorite toys are now whatever Izaak happens to be playing with and big brother does not always like that. We do enjoy the moments when these two buddies just make one another laugh. For example when we are in the car driving back home after work and all of the sudden Izaak makes a weird noise or screams and Izaiah just starts laughing, well in turn this makes Izaak laugh too and encourages him to make the noise again, which again makes Izaiah laugh. They can go for quite a while on the same routine. Zak and I just smile at each other and think how amazing it is to have our two little boys and what fun the future holds for us with these two boys of ours. We love them and are so happy to be the parents of such amazing little bodies.

Happy Halloween

We had so much fun this Halloween weekend. We started out our celebration on Friday morning getting Izaak ready to wear his SWAT team member outfit for a trunk or treat at daycare. As you can imagine he was super excited. Something about handcuffs, dark shades, a whistle and a flashlight makes this little boy really happy. Izaak looked great. We were also super excited to pick up Zak from the airport that afternoon. Zak was in Texas on a business trip and we sure missed him tons. Zak brought back some presents for us too and that made us extra happy!
Saturday we had our Ward’s trunk-or treat. It was so much fun. We enjoyed a taco dinner, showed off our costumes and Izaak won 2nd place on the children costume contest (Zak may or may have not pulled some strings for this since they asked the bishopric for votes and guess what? Zak is in the bishopric! J). We enjoyed all of our wards families costumes! Then the fun part began at the trunk or treat. Zak and I took turns taking Izaak around to pick up some candy and handing out candy to our little friends in the ward. It was fun. We managed to entertain Izaiah with a glow stick while he sat on the trunk of our car. He is such a good baby! We had to make a stop at the grocery store after the trunk or treat and people there enjoyed our boys all dressed up in their costumes too. I enjoyed all the cute comments my boys were getting.
For Sunday Zak and I had decided to keep it low key and wanted to enjoy just a fun time together as a family, so I made a special dinner for us. I made a stop at the Dollar Tree (which I love especially for the holidays… you can find great decorations there!) during the week and some fun items to entertain our boys. Hubby also showed another talent of his which the boys and I really enjoyed… he is a balloon artist! He made Izaiah a puppy, Izaak got a crown and sword and I got a beautiful flower! (I am kicking myself for not taking pictures of those wonderful treasures) My man has so many talents besides being a wonderful husband and a great father. I love him! Izaak also enjoyed handing out candy to the few trick-or-treaters that stopped by. He was so excited about handing out candy and he kept digging in our bowl for more and more candy to hand out. All in all it was a fantastic day!
