Hey, guys. Izacc here. I want to write a letter to my Dad because he is far away and I miss him a lot. Since he wasn’t here today, Mommy and I took a bunch of pictures to help him feel a little like he was here.

The morning started with some cartoons and some of this

I really like the letter cereal and ate me a whole bunch of it this morning. And afternoon. Okay, I had two bowls for lunch too, okay? I said I like it!

This was a new box this morning…

Mom says it’s a good this cereal is only a dollar, whatever that means…

Okay, so while I was enjoying my lunch of delicious cereal, Mommy and Ian had some of this

Shells and cheese. Blauck! Not for me!!

Oh and did I mention that I finished off all the fruit punch packets for you? Yeah, I just kept filling up my cup and pouring a whole packet in. Mommy didn’t realize I was doing it and when she did, I told her that “when Daddy finds out I drank all his soda he is going to be so proud of me.” Direct quote.

So then Ian and I took a nap. I don’t know what Mommy did while we were sleeping, but I’m sure it was fun because when I woke up, her whole bed was full of piles and piles of folded clothes.

So many that I couldn’t see the TV! I told her to move them.

Then we watched some more cartoons and had some licorice. It was fun, except Mommy kept taking the licorice away from me! So when she was cleaning up Ian’s room,

I took the bag and finished it off!

She didn’t even know! I am so sneaky!!

Well, after that I was hungry for some dinner. So Mommy made me some noodles.

Tuna casserole.

Wait, what? That’s not what she told ME!

Oh well, I ate it anyway.

Covered in Parmesan cheese of course.

Just like yesterday, remember?

Mmmmm…parmesean hot dogs…mmmmm…

Anyway, Ian had noodles too.

But he also had green beans and something else Mommy made.

I do not like green beans! Mommy offered me peas and I said “No that’s just gross!”

Then I decided I hadn’t danced all day! So I told Mommy to turn on Kids Place Live and I danced

and ate

and danced

Ian enjoyed his dinner, I think

he kept rubbing his nose and making a big mess on his face.

And he’s been drinking out of my cup all day! Mommy tells me that I am a big boy and I don’t need it anymore, but when she’s not looking, I drink out of it too. Shhh! Don’t tell her okay?

So after dinner we loaded the dishwasher

And Ian and I took a bath.

While I finished my bath, Mommy put Ian to bed.

Daddy! Did you know Ian has Spongebob teeth just like me?!

I saw them in the mirror (again) today!

He said “Baa” which means goodnight Daddy, I love you.

I just know it.

Well, then Mommy and me went to my room to clean up. Ian and I played in here today and it was fun.

I beat Mommy putting my toys away! I was so fast!

Then Mommy let me hang up my own shirts!

I’m getting pretty good!

See?

So all my animals are ready for bed

I read Mommy a story about “a Mommy and a Daddy and her went in the dark and a wolf, a very creature come. And her was very, very nice and her carry you and then her made it to your home. Daddy went in the dark and there was a very wild animal. And then he sting Izacc and Daddy carried him home and he was a good Daddy. The end

So, how do you like that story I read?”

It was a good story.

Well Daddy, I’m going to bed now. I will talk to you tomorrow.

I love you and miss you.

Goodnight.

Someone's In The Kitchen

What the heck is this you ask?

Well, you see, it has something to do with this:

and this:

That's right. I'm trying to be a little healthier and fool ~~myself~~ my child into eating vegetables. Above is a picture of my very own pureed carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, and sweet potato.

There is cauliflower in the mac and cheese.

It was actually delicious.

I love this book!

The recipes are fun, some are really really good, some not so much. But they give me a good platform to expound on and with a few alterations, they've all turned out yummy.

Just don't smell what you're cooking because it, um, well, ain't pretty.

There is a recipe for brownies with spinach in them.

I am a little nervous to try it as Brownies are my one true love and I would hate to taint their sacred name...

You have to serve them cold to avoid tasting the spinach...

I'll let you know how they turn out...

Izacc's Words of Wisdom

August 15, 2011- While playing with Amelia he wrapped her up in a blanket and said, "Look mom! She's all snuggled up like a bug in a carpet." I think he was trying to say snug as a bug in a rug, but I get it.

July 2011- After church Izacc couldn't find me for a few minutes. On the drive home he said "If you had Life Alert I would have found you faster."

June 12, 2011- "Her ears are so cute! If I see them again I'm going to die!"

April 8, 2011- "Mom, guess what. I have a girlfriend named Anna. And when we get bigger we're going to get married. And then she'll have babies. And they will call you Grandma. But you'll still be my mom."

My life just flashed before my eyes.

March 2011- Izacc won't let me cut his hair. He wants it to look like "Justin Beaver" of whom he refers to as "Beaverton"

March 2011- I was listening to the radio and Izacc came into the room head banging his little heart out. I asked him if he like this song. He said, "No, mom, I don't. My brain is plugging it's ears."

February 2011- On a drive back home, my mom was trying to entertain the boys by putting Cheetos on a straw and told Izacc they were shiskabobs. Izacc then took a marshmallow bunny, skewered it and proclaimed "Shiskabunny!"

October 4, 2010- I said that I think I have the cutest kids around. Daddy said "I think Mommy's biased." Izacc said "No Jesus buyed us."

September 2010- Izacc's favorite songs to request are Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold, Your Betrayal, by Bullet For My Valentine, and Airplanes and the night sky and shooting stars by "that singing M&M." Oh and Follow the Prophet. At least he's well versed in all genres!

August 2010- Izacc's clock on his wall ran out of batteries. One night, as I was putting him to bed, he gasped and said, "Mommy! Quick! My clock is going to run out of time! Find some batteries!"

June 15, 2010- While driving to Ikea, I pointed out the temple on the hill. When Izacc saw it, he asked me, "Was it built by the wise man or the foolish man?"

May 2010- Izacc made about 10 funny faces in a row and then proclaimed, "Those are my all my species."

May 2010- We were driving around and I commented on how pretty the moon was. IZ said "Are we going home? Because I want to keep driving and look at the beautyness!"

April 2010- Upon seeing that I had put away the toys he was playing with, he came into the room and proclaimed, "What the hell, mom?" He also informed me that I "scared the hell out of him" in Wal-Mart. Again, not sure where he's getting it from but I have to give him props for at least using it correctly.

February 21, 2010- We were listening to Kid's Place Live and the song "Heigh Ho" came on. IZ said, "Mom, they're saying 'pie hole' that means there is a big hole in their pie! Why is there a hole in their pie?"

February20, 2010- "Hey mom! Nice socks. What are those? Monkeys? Hey, speaking of which, I gotta get these bad boys off!" as he ripped his own socks off. Not kidding, that is exactly what he said...I almost died.

January 28, 2010- "Mommy, you make the best cookies and the best noodles."

January 27, 2010- IZ was pushing the cart at Walmart, he said, "Look Mom. Am I pushing the cart?" I said, "Yeah you are! Good job!" He then said, "Yeah, I'm pushing the hell out of this cart!" Yeeeaaaaaahh...uh...not 100% on where he picked that one up...really.

January 1, 2010- While sledding around the neighborhood, we crashed. IZ stood up and turned around, his glasses crooked on his face and simply said, "What'd we hit?". He later crashed with Gramma and stood up and said, "That's it. I'm done. I'm going back to Gramma's."

December 25, 2009- My Aunt, Uncle and Cousin and their kids came over to our house to check out our Christmas loot. IZ was very eager to show off everything he got and tried to get everyone to follow him down the stairs. When everyone left, he came up stairs and said, "Where did those humans go?"

November 18, 2009- IZ was watching a movie and I told him it was time to take a bath. He said, "Okay, let me go square my movie." I asked him what that meant. He said, "A square makes it stop and a triangle makes it go." So smart that kid.

November 11, 2009- EB has started saying "ma ma ma ma" and when IZ heard this, he continued EB's song by singing, "My my my poker face."

November 5, 2009- Ever heard the song "Say Hey (I Love You)" by Michael Franti & Spearhead? There is a part that goes, "The more I see the less I know. But I know one thing, That I love you (baby girl) I love you
I love you I love you." IZ, instead of singing "Baby Girl" sings "DIRTY BIRD!"

October 20, 2009- IZ was looking at a place mat with dinosaurs and their names. He then stated "This is a quadruped. He has four legs and a long neck and a big nose and red eyes and his name is Broccoli-saurus."

October 10, 2009- IZ was using the potty after eating a big meal and said, "Those French fries made me poop! Look! Lets go get some more so I can poop again!"

September 30, 2009- IZ and I were taking a bath and he informed me that I was Free Willy and he was the tiny, tiny boy. I think it's time to go on a diet.

September 16, 2009- We were walking to the park and saw some little kids playing peewee football. I asked IZ if he wanted to play football someday. He said no. I asked him what he wanted to play, expecting him to say soccer or baseball. He, with out even thinking, said "Duck duck goose!"

August 5, 2009- We went to the county fair and decided to ride a few rides. The Ferris wheel was closed so IZ and I rode another circle ride. It was too much for him and he cried through the entire thing. He shouted things like, "This ride makes me creepy" and "I'm just a little boy! I want to go home!" Bad mommy.

July 3, 2009- IZ climbed into bed with us at 6 am and was snuggled up watching cartoons. I was nursing EB and Thom started snoring. IZ looked at me and said, "Daddy is sleeping crazy! Listen!"

June 30, 2009- After walking through the house to find several places where a marker had been used, on walls, on the stove, on the TV, on the Wii, I asked IZ if he did it. "Yes" was his reply. When I inquired why he said "But it's my job!" I should have figured it out when earlier he said he was going to work.

May 23, 2009- IZ wanted to watch a DVD and so I took the one I was watching out, which was a Friends season, and when he saw it said, "Mommy, I am sick and tired for Friends."

May 14, 2009- When IZ is doing something, he will often say, "faster, faster, evil faster!" (Evil instead of even)

March 2009- While visiting my parents, IZ got to try his first marshmallow bunny. He took a bite and put it on a chair. A few minutes later, we heard his shriek, "My rabbie!" upon seeing it stuck to Gramma's unsuspecting bottom.
