Isaac - photos by Callie Anne Photography

When Isaac and Mom went to TX with for MamMaw Parish's birthday, we also went down to Baylor University in Waco, where our amazing friend Callie Carruth-Harper took pictures of Isaac. The first one is of Isaac and Callie's son Hutson.

By the way, Callie is an amazing photographer - very patient and great at catching the spirit of Isaac (each of these pics capture Isaac's personality quirks and facial expressions!). If you are ever in the Austin, TX, area and need a photographer, you should check her out at www.callieannephotography.blogspot.com!

A little insight into our world right now...

Isaac has been developing his little personality at warp speed lately - he is very curious, and more than a little silly. We will often walk in on him bopping along to the music in his head, or talking to any number of stuffed animals in his room. Here are a few pics from his more recent personality development!

Thanksgiving 2007

This is not about Isaac (he and I were taking a nap at the time) - but I found it on our computer this afternoon and thought it was funny! Last year at MamMaw and PapPaw Parish's house on Thanksgiving, it started snowing, and the "big kids" got to play in the snowflakes! (The big kids are cousin Joey, Garin, Aunt Stephanie, and Aunt Jessica - Grammie is filming.)

Boy and dog - a photo series...

Last January, we took some pics of Isaac and Lucy (our dog), where they seemed to be making the same faces and expressions. Here he is again, this time with Grammie's dog, Annabelle.

Everybody look right...


...now everybody look left...


...now everybody look down...

Puppy-kisses are the best!

A trip to Grammie's, Oct 30-Nov 5

Reading an "In Style" magazine on the plane (apparently, little black dresses are back)

Lots of new things to play with at Grammie's house!

There is a pumpkin patch across the street from Grammie's house, so we went Friday afternoon. Isaac explored the pumpkin vines, and Mom got bitten by ants. Ick.

In his Halloween costume, which he wore for all of 15 minutes - in TX, Halloween is not the day to wear head-to-toe fleece!

Maybe someday they'll hang this picture on their Baylor dorm room wall!

We got together with some of Mom's high school basketball teammates - this is Amber's son Zane. (They took turns getting in and out of the highchair.)

Fort Worth Zoo - Tuesday, Nov 4

Since Mom and Grammie had voted early (and it only took 20 minutes for Aunt Jess to vote) we took election day off and went to the zoo. It was great fun!

Isaac had the best seat in the house!

In the Bird Aviary, Isaac fed one of the parrots with a birdseed stick (there's a video in the next post)

In case you can't read it, this says "Hill Country" (so, basically this is a pic of Mom being cheesy)

Isaac loved the penguins - this one was trying to eat his fingers, though Isaac seems blissfully unaware.

A couple of videos from the Grammie trip

Here are a few videos from our recent trip to visit our TX family.


Isaac loved playing with Annabelle, Grammie's huge lab-mix dog. This is a video of the three of them playing soccer (with a partially-deflated basketball).



On Tuesday, Mom, Jess, Grammie and Isaac went to the Fort Worth Zoo. At the aviary, Isaac and Grammie fed one of the birds with a birdseed stick. It was pretty cool!
