3 weeks after Izaac turned one - he took his first steps on his own. It's just been the cutest thing to watch. He loved to walk with his wagon or his scooter - and he was persistent. Now, he just loves getting up on his own and walking. He puts his hands on his chest as he walks, which is so cute, looking like a professor. We went out last night and he just went off on his own with no concern of losing us. What a concern! Oh how things change continually.
Izaac is just beginning to learn to throw/roll a ball. Too cute. And, of course, he thinks it's the funniest thing ever. He'll throw the ball, then run after and chase it - laughing away. Keeps him entertained for ages. We're trying to teach him to 'throw to Daddy', then 'throw to Mummy'. But it will come .... I'll try upload a photo/movie soon.
Yes our little boy is now a One Year old! We had the most wonderful "Tea Party" for him. It was so cute. The littlies around the table, trying to pour the milk or water into their cups - it went everywhere, drinking from their cups and the excitement of these bright cupcakes infront of them.
Izaac was just in his element - he had so much fun. Izaac and Lucy were the last ones standing - still going for it after the others had wondered off. It was lovely just having a few of Izaacs friends there and seeing what develops over the years. We also loved having friends around us, that meant so much to us.
I've so enjoyed Izaac becoming so agile in his crawling and being mobile. He is just so cute and he loves his new found freedom.

Here is Izaac doing his amazing, fast commando crawling. At one stage, I was wondering if he was actually going to creep on his hands and knees, as he was so good at crawling.
Currently these are the photos on our fridge door. Izaac loves to look at them and laughs and smiles when I go through them with him.
The classic birth photo. As the birth centre, where Izaac was born, encourages low lighting, it was really difficult to get good shots - as I hate using a flash. Also, I wouldn't use a flash near my new bubbie. Seeing this photo, seems like such a world away. In the photo, besides our new little bundle, we have my dearest friend, Linda (next to Rod) - who was our helper and support during the birth. Then we have Melissa, our amazing and wonderful midwife. Mel, so understood the type of birth and wanted and went to the nth degree to ensure that it happened. She was just amazing.
On our Port Stephen's holiday, this picture Rod took of us, on our walk along the beach. I just love this shot.So much has happened this past month with Izaac. He now fully stands against items, he got his two botton teeth and his one top one has just come through - just in time for eight months. His commando crawling is like a lizard across the ground, he goes so fast. I wonder if he will even bother trying to crawl on his knees, he is so efficient with his current crawl.
We've been sick these past 3 weeks and I've started work. So Izaac has also had quite a bit of stress dealing with these changes - so you might notice that he has actually lost some weight.
These pictures are of Izaac's last day in his cradle. We walked in and our little man was kneeling on his knees. Obviously he was very proud of his new skill and was laughing away. In this video, you can hear Izaac also saying "Ma, Ma." His first word!
