Isaac's Professional Baseball Debut

Well finally Mom got off the computer and let me use it!
Hey everybody, this is Isaac again using the computer. I wanted to tell you about my last game I got to go to this year. Dad took me to the Lookouts next to last game. Uncle Craig and Aunt Beth came down to watch it as well. I took this picture. Pretty good, huh?


Well the game was OK. Lookouts lost in the 10th. However, I did get to meet one of the Chick-Fil-A cows. I will definitely eat more chicken from now on.
It took me just a little bit to get his attention.

After the game we got to go on the field to watch the after game fireworks.

I was in awe of being able to be on the grass. Dad gave me one of my baseballs to play with on the field and my big league dreams started.

Of course I was distracted by the scoreboard. It was really cool to be this close to it.

Of course, soon I was back to working on my fastball. Being left-handed might give me the fast track to the bigs.

Aunt Beth tried to catch me in a run-down, but my lightning fast speed tricked her. She could not catch me.
I hope Uncle JD was not too jealous of Beth and I playing on the field.
Anyway, I can't wait to take my little brother and sister out on the field next year. I will be able to show them the ropes and let them play with me as well.
Speaking of them. Mom got some more pictures today. Dad said he will try to post them tomorrow.
Later, Isaac.

Visit to Grammy Pat and Grandpa Joe

Isaac and I went to visit Grammy Pat and Grandpa Joe in Murfreesboro over the weekend. The main goal was to go to the Parents of Multiples consignment sale in Franklin, but we did have lots of fun as well!


Here is Grammy Pat and Isaac sitting together for a photo session

Isaac is not a very picky eater, but he does seem to eat better for others than he does for either Joe or myself. Mrs. Tina at the day care can get him to eat anything, and so, it would seem, can Grammy Pat. We found out that Isaac loves cantalope.

Isaac also made sure to find another Thoughtful spot on our visit. He chose the opening under the tv in the living room. He fit pretty well.

We weren't the only ones to visit Grammy and Grandpa! Aunt Jenny and Uncle Jason came with cousin Joshua! Cousin Joshua was a lot of fun to play with, but the best picture was when Joshua was introduced to corn on the cob. He really went to town!


After dinner, the boys decided to chase each other around the house. They worked up a sweat, (which was easy because the house is freakin' HOT!!) and the mommas decided that the best way to cool them down before putting them to bed, would be a bath. That was an experience.


I think this picture is funny becasue Joshua is giving Isaac a, "Why aren't you finished playing with that toy?" look.

All in all, it was a success! I got the double stroller that we needed, along with twin car seats with bases. I also got lots of clothes that the twins and Isaac can use. It was a profitable weekend!

Isaac's Thoughtful Spot

Just like his favorite Disney character, Pooh Bear, Isaac has a thoughtful spot. He goes to his spot when he wants to escape; usually with a toy or two.

His thoughtful spot is... stair number three.

Here he is with a baseball. He is happily entertained with his dreams of one day becoming a famous pitcher. (For the Braves) However, he is not carrying a Braves ball. I have no idea which one it is.


When I confronted Isaac and asked him if he wanted to come play with Mommy, his reply was...

"Noooooooo!"

"Well," I said, "OK. Can Mommy play here with you?"

He decided to show me another place where I could play. Far away from him.


I can take a hint. He was safe and entertained, so I moved on.

He waited until I was far enough away before resuming his dreams of Pro Baseball stardom.
Isaac had his 18 month visit to the doctor today. Apparently, he remembered the office from his last visit and was not very well behaved for Daddy. (I did not take him so I can save my days for maternity leave) Isaac was found to be healthy, if not happy, and received three shots.
Joe deserves kudos for taking Isaac and putting up with a lot! Way to go, Joe!!

Isaac's Decorations

Hello everyone out there. This is Isaac. I wanted to show you guys my room. Since baseball season is almost over, Dad will not be able to take me to many more games this season. But I wanted to show the stuff I have gotten so far.



As you can see I have decorated my room (with Dad's help) with pennants from all the stadiums I have been to this year. So far I have been to 22 stadiums this year but I have got 24 pennants in my room.



I am very proud of my pennants and bats that Dad has gotten me. I also really liked the trips I have taken this year with Daddy. We got to go to 11 states and the District of Columbia. I got to sit in a major league dugout. I got to see games at the Major League level, AA, A+, and A- levels.

It has been a blast. Hopefully, once my little brother and little sister get here, all of us can go to more games, but they will not GET MY PENNANTS! They can collect ice cream helmets like Aunt Beth. The pennants are mine, along with the baseballs and bats.....well I guess I can share those with them.



Well right now there are no more trips scheduled for this year, but next year hopefully Dad will take me to Minnesota to see the Twins for the last year in their stadium.

Dad says though that we will have to wait and see on that trip.

Later,
Isaac

20 week update

No ultrasound picture, but a good update. The twins are fine, good heart beats. She couldn't tell me a lot, but she was impressed with how big my stomach already was. My next appointment is four weeks away and she did schedule an ultrasound then. I go back to the specialist in two weeks, and they do an ultrasound each time.

Anyhoo- here are more pictures of Isaac!








I had to throw this one of Joshua in because I think it is so cute! He is really enthusiastic about what he has to say!
I love this picture because Joshua is saying "All done!", Sadie is trying to whistle, and Isaac is screaming in excitement. Cute kids.

Funny faces of Isaac

Just an excuse to post some funny pictures of Isaac.







Tomorrow I have another doctor's appointment. I don't know if they plan on an ultrasound, but if there is I will post the pictures. If not, I will still update and use Isaac pictures instead! :)

Party at Gommy B's!!

In celebration of my Grandmother Bradley, almost her entire clan showed up at my Aunt Hollye's house for lunch and fun. We were very excited that my littlest sister, Samantha, could come since she has not seen Isaac in person before.
We got lots of fabulous pictures of the boys (Isaac and Joshua) and girl (Sadie). I know Gommy was happy to see us all together!
!
Here we have Aunt Hollye and Aunt Boo sharing their ice cream with the kiddies


Here we got the kids to sit on the porch swing.
Here is a picture of Sadie having a good time.

Isaac had a great time chasing bubbles.


Joanna's new Facebook pose. Nice, Boo. Makes you look mysterious.


Lovely picture of the Bradley girls.
Everyone had a great time! Happy Birthday Gommy!!
