Long Time Overdue


I feel like I haven't posted in ages. So much has happened and we've done so much in the past few months that it's hard to know where to begin.

Isak is growing so much everyday. He loves to dance and sing his songs and talk up a storm. He is running galloping, counting, coloring and doing all of the things that rambunctious toddlers love to do. He has become quite independent.....unless we are walking up stairs then I am supposed to "hold you".

We took a trip to Disney World this summer with 35 of my dancers and their families and had an absolutely wonderful time. It was hotter than hot down there, but the dancers didan amazing job and we will definetely make a trip back again. Isak had a blast seeing and taking part in everything. I think we came home with a new son as his vocabulary increased and he just seemed older.

I've attached some pictures of our trip.
Isak enjoying Lego Land in Downtown Disney

Isak and Steve with Donald at Chef Mickey's Breakfast. Isak liked the characters from faraway....just not close up. He was too excited to even eat.

Chasing after the bubbles in Magic Kingdom.

Enjoying a 2nd birthday treat at the Coral Reef Cafe in Epcot. Right across from us was huge wall long fish tank....Isak loved the fish.


Of course we had to visit Mater and McQueen in Disney Hollywood Studios. Isak just wanted to stay and look at them for about 15 minutes.

Playing in the Honey I Shrunk the Kids Playground at Hollywood Studios. Isak loved the slide and all the tunnels you could get lost in. One note if you ever go...the tunnels were definetely not made for adults to travel through...ouch.

Isak and Steve on the plane ride home. Despite Isak's ear infection prior to our trip, he did a great job on the plane. He was a little upset when we got off the last time...he wanted to stay on the "airpwane".


On an exciting note, Steve and I found out earlier this summer that we are expecting #2. An ultrasound last week confirmed it was another little boy. We are pretty excited to have another little one around. Isak is excited to have a "brodder". I'm due sometime mid-late January so it should be a great time of year. Steve has been busy painting the guest room while I've been busy deciding how to decorate :)

Well, a busy day calls. I will try to update more often.....hopefully. I hope this finds everyone doing well!
