October 2010

Irene is funny. Here are some examples:

Jeremy is reading books to Irene, sitting on the couch...she stops, points at my face, and says, "this is the long nose".

Irene: "humongous is my favorite color"

Me: "Irene, do you love mama?"
Irene: "Yeah...(pause)...she is the best"

(Irene playing with a little toy princess cell phone)
Me: "...oh, is Cinderella calling from the castle?"
Irene: " No, she bought a house."

We asked Irene if she was ready to eat lunch and she said, "oui, oui oui" as she ran into the kitchen. (She is a big fan of "Fancy Nancy")

Not only does she speak French, she occasionally has a southern accent when saying certain words: "sad", "around", "dad", "well", "mad", "mommy", "help"

Irene is 2 years, 3 months in this photo. Shannon is 4. That is the same dress.


Isaac is hilarious in much different ways. After he wakes up in the morning he will sit quietly and read books for about 5-10 minutes...then he NEVER stops moving, yelling, talking, climbing, jumping, banging, opening, closing, crawling, drooling, smiling, or crying until he goes to bed. He makes us smile a lot and is a joy to be around (except in the middle of the night, which he still has trouble sleeping through). We had a friend take some 9-month photos for us...here is a teaser and we will post some more from the session soon.


Be sure to check out the new album of October pix.

Irene says some funny stuff. It will be fun to see how she interacts with Xavi.

Isaac looks kinda upset to be a bumblebee. I will try and bolt down anything that could cause him injury if he climbs on it.
