little drummer boy

isaac is getting so big.  i was just looking a friend's picture of her newborn, and already forgot how little he once was.  so here's our little drummer boy.  he likes to "boom, boom" on anything.  his bangs are growing back, which i'm thankful for.  my first attempt at cutting his hair left his bangs a little short for my liking.  lately, he's been drooling like crazy (as you can tell by these pictures), his nose has been running like a faucet too...so he's just one big ball of bodily fluids!  we're just waiting for his two top teeth to break through.  he'll bite just about anything...including your shoulder, nose, hands, legs...anything!  his laugh is so sweet, especially when he's laughing at his sister.  he's been eating more solids (slowly...) and sits at the table with us for meals.  it's so surreal having both our kids sitting at the table!  he's as much as mama's boy as ever!  to the point where i put him in the moby the other day, just to clean and straighten up.  it seems that when we're in the same room together, he has to be on my hip, or there's trouble :)  he's trying oh so hard to crawl, but just can't seem to get all the motions together quite yet.  soon, i'm sure.  he seems to be more inquisitive and into things than elise was at this age.  his walker is his key to freedom right now...but i found him pulling stuff on the bookshelf, pulling towels off the stove, pulling bowls off the island, pulling elise's nebulizer off her face while she's using it, chasing the dog, opening drawers and pulling things out...and you get the picture. :)  boys are so different...but i admit, i'm loving it!  we're just realizing we need more safety precautions than we had with our girl.  i can't believe how fast the time is going.  i continue to pray that i will not wish it away in the crazy moments, but enjoy and savor it.  at times i still can't believe i'm a mom...or just how much i love these children!
