Here is one of a few new videos that went up. As I said before, by around Thursday each week Isaac forgets that I am funny. Then around Sunday, he remembers. God, I love three day weekends.



Here is one with Mom cracking our Isaac up:



And who knew he was such a good MMA fighter?



And this is how Isaac builds up muscles for those competitions (we were both really impressed):



About a dozen videos are going up as I write this.

We have a ton of pictures and videos going up today. Here are some really good pictures that got posted:

You don't see this face often, because Isaac is generally a happy kid, but when you do you know the baby poop is about to hit the fan:



Here is a picture of Isaac being a tough guy (doesn't he look menacing?):



Here is Isaac being surprised:



Isaac being VERY surprised:



Isaac in his fancy outfit Aunt Monica and Uncle Rob sent him (he was going to the Cape to go sailing with the Kennedys):



Some more picture proof that he sticks out his tongue (but usually only to Dad):



A shot of Isaac realizing that his Dad is actually quite funny (he seems to forget this fact around Thursday and remembers it on Sunday, hence the beauty of a three-day weekend):



And finally, a kinda artsy-fartsy picture of Isaac and Mom (I tried to do this on purpose, it kinda worked):

Isaac Anthony has been with us for four months now. It is hard to believe that four months ago there was a little baby blob that pooped, ate, cried, and slept and now we have a giggling, smiling, tongue-sticking out little guy. But the great thing is that everyday he does something new and amazing or he surprises us.

One of the struggles we have had, one of the very few, thankfully, is with the bottle. Isaac took the bottle like a champ the firs three times. We thought he was all set so we didn't even bother to keep it up. Big mistake. After about a month and half of no bottle at all Isaac didn't really want to go back. He cried and fussed and it made bottle time a chore. But on Sunday I strapped on the Baby Bjorn and gave him a bottle as we walked around outside. It got a little silly at one point. He was eating so well that I wanted to do nothing that disturbed him, so to shelter him from the wind I walked hunched over and to protect him from the sun I walked backwards. I kinda looked like a crazy zombie slowly shambling down the street with a baby on me. But then I realized that I could just walk around and Isaac would still take the bottle. After weeks of fussing, he eat almost 4 ounces, or about the same as Robot Baby got yesterday, without a whimper. Unpredictable.

He is also doing things that are really nice to be around, such as loving to read. Bianca can plop him in the bean bag chair and read to him for an hour or so. He also likes to sit between your legs and read. He is very good at cuddling too. He will lay his head on your shoulder or just let you play with him while he lays on your chest. He has distinctive moods and preferences. It is an absolute joy to be around him.

Thanks for coming into our lives Isaac Anthony.
