Jenny likes to say that Isaac looks like me, but I wouldn’t be so sure…

Fireworks and Cheese

A funny story: we have a little phone app called “Baby Fireworks”. About 5 fireworks launch up onto the screen and then spin around until you (or presumably your baby) touch them, then they pop and are replaced. We were showing Issac how it works and he was having problems hitting them with his finger. In fact, one time he missed the screen all together!
To help him along, Jenny took his finger and used it to touch the fireworks. We then let go and told him to try again. He went right for Jenny’s hand and used her finger to touch the fireworks! It was hilarious!
In other news, we were surprised to discover yesterday that Isaac knows how to make a “Cheese!” face when you point a camera at him. It doesn’t work with a phone camera or with my big SLR, but point-and-shoot does it every time. We assume he learned it at day care. Check it out; it’s adorable.

Sorry for not updating as often as we should be. You know… Moving to another state, new job, baby, life… Anyway, here are a few pictures inbetween those busy times.
Swim Lessons

Well, since we have a nice big pool now, we figured it’d be prudent to get Isaac into swim lessons ASAP. We signed up for a little two-week “water familiarization” class at a local public pool. Isaac is having a great time in the water! I took some photos at today’s class and, though I haven’t actually post-processed them at all, I’m sharing them.
Please excuse the bad focus, spotty white balance and odd lighting. Indoor pools are notoriously hard places to get good photos in the first place. I was also using a friend’s camera (and 70-200 f/2.8 lens!) and I’m not used to Canon’s system.

Time Flies!

They went from just idly lying next to one another at 5-mo-old to having deep, inciteful conversations with one another at 8-mo-old. *sigh* Oh how time flies!
