This year, my birthday fell on Memorial Day. We spent the weekend at my parent's and then decided to come home and spend Monday doing some fun things, just the three of us...four, counting Isaac's beloved Monkey. We spent the afternoon at Minnehaha Falls, which is only about a 10 minutes drive from our house. I hadn't realized it was so close...I think we will be going there a few more times this summer. Isaac loved running around, watching the waterfall, and playing with his ball. It's a wonderful relaxing get-away in the midst of the busy city for a busy toddler!
Having a much needed snack time...so much happier with a full belly!
And off we go!...
This was a common theme throughout the day...walking away to explore
Catch!
Much needed water break, and off we go again!
Taking a break
And off he goes...again!
and again.
Isaac had his 15 month checkup a couple weeks ago (when he was actually 16 months) due to his doctor being on vacation and needing to reschedule. He weighed in at 23 pounds...the same as at his 12 month appointment. It's no wonder he hasn't gained any weight, all the moving around he does. He very rarely sits still these days. He was 33 inches, which puts him in the 20th percentile for weight, and 90th for height. His doctor was very impressed with how verbal he is and with how many words he has already...we definitely have a talker on our hands! He was also diagnosed with allergies and put on some meds that are helping a ton! He can breathe so much better and his poor nose is no longer constantly running. Otherwise, he is a healthy and growing boy, for which we are very thankful!
