It's fun to be one

Well, I'm only a week late posting the pictures from Isaiah's 1st birthday. It was a great day! Thanks to all who sent gifts, cards, and/or attended the party! What a special day! I think that Steve covered most of the events in the last post, plus the videos, but here are the pictures:

As for the rest of life, Isaiah has kept us awake for two nights now, right in the middle of the night. We are not sure why, but I am tired of it already! He has also thrown his first minor temper tantrum, gotten 5 shots in his little legs, a finger prick, and taken 6 steps. YUP, all in one week! Isaiah took about 6 steps last night, but we couldn't get him to do it again if our lives depended on it! He will only take steps alone if you make him, and even then he sits down as soon as you let go. What a stinker! It's really OK with me though. It's going to be a whole new ball game when he walks, and I am comfortable with this stage right now!

Steve is back at class, I am back at work. Seems like the holidays went too fast again this year. We had company to celebrate the new year which was fantastic! Isaiah's Godparents, our friends Luke and Megan, came for a visit. It was nice to see them and even get away for some adult fun!

Later today we have our first interview for the placement process. How fun, exciting, and scary it is to know that we will be placed somewhere in the United States in a few months! Actually Steve just got the forms for Graduation as well. We have waited a long 4 years for this, but it seems to be going very quickly now. Mixed emotions are probably the best way to describe it!
