[/caption]Isaiah is 2 now, though if you ask him he may say 4 or 5 (because he wants to be exactly like Helaman). He is very proud of being able to get his fingers to make the 2, and then usually wants to sing "Little Bunny Foo-foo." He cracks me up.
I've decided the best way to describe Isaiah is passionate. Everything he does, happy or sad, he is full force, full hearted. He loves you passionately, gets mad passionately (and, alas, violently), runs fast, jumps high, laughs hard. As Dr. Tedford said, he's a pistol! He keeps our life exciting, and we love him so much!
He has an amazing grasp of language. I'm constantly stunned by his vocabulary and sentence structure. He's also really graceful, he moves like a natural athlete (which must come from his dad!) There's just such a lot of person in such a little guy. (34" and 26 lbs).
Helaman and Isaiah are great friends. They love to be silly and crazy together. This usually means someone ends up getting hurt, but that doesn't seem to stop the madness. I was always afraid of having all boys because they are so crazy. And while I was right about that, I sure love my boys.
Happy Birthday Isaiah! We can't imagine what life was like without you.
Just for fun, here's Isaiah saying "Hey Diddle Diddle." One day I was giving him a shower and told him to look up so I could wash the shampoo out of his hair. I asked him if he could see the moon up there, and he said, yes, and the cow jumping over the moon. And then he popped out with the whole poem. Who knew?
Oh my goodness, I love this! I could not figure out the last parts he was saying so I looked them up (because I didn't know what "Hey Diddle Diddle" was) and he totally says everything. The best part was the very end when he says he is going to get the books now. As for Isaiah being passionate, that is right on. I would also add that he is a "go-getter" and "ambitious" in a good way. No one will ever be able to tell him no if it is something he is truly passionate about it.
