Merry Christmas!

This is INSIDE the Gaylord Opryland Hotel.  The picture doesn't really do it justice, but it looks like you are outside, but it has multiple ridiculously large atria with beautiful waterfalls and gardens.  If you come and visit us, I will make sure to take you there because it is pretty amazing.  I kind of felt like I was at Disneyland minus the rides and characters.

 

I'm 10 months old!

Isaac playing with his Little People Nativity set from his Grandma Venita

He is so cute when he sleeps with his little bum up in the air!

Isaac having fun with his toys.  He is just starting to learn how some of them work...it's amazing that they're not all just chew toys!

Isaac is most interested in 'reading' his books right after I neatly stack them all on his bookshelf.  He has so much fun taking everything out of his bins immediately after I put everything away.  I'm guessing it is a while before he changes from 'destroy' mode to 'create' mode...if he ever does.

Trouble Maker

Here is my little trouble maker...the funny thing is that I was actually in his room when he did this. Sometimes he wants to get up so early that I go sleep on his floor while he plays with his toys. That way we are both happy...I'm getting more sleep and he gets to play with his toys with mommy in the room (he is a little attached these days).

Isaac says hi?

It's hard to tell if Isaac really says anything yet.  I'm pretty sure he can say 'hi' and probably can say 'more', but outside of that I'm pretty sure he's just babbling.  He'll learn those long anticipated 'mama' and 'dada' words soon enough!

SNOW!!!

So, we actually got snow in Nashville. This is the view from out our front door. The funny thing was that the storm was ALL over the news for 2 whole days and they even closed down all of the schools for 2 days after the storm and then another 1/2 day because they were anticipating another 1-4" (although it hasn't actually come yet). Wow. I will say that the roads ARE very icy, but come on...
It has actually been pretty cold here, too.  It has been in the teens and 20s for the last few days.  I had to at least post this after rubbing our toasty hot weather in my family's face on Thanksgiving day.  I think it was less than 20 degrees in Salt Lake City and it was 70 degrees here.  The tables have certainly turned!
