Four Generations...

Tonight we had the opportunity to get four generations of Ramsour men together for dinner. We went to visit Bill's grandfather in Blanco at the local bowling alley, where everyone seemed to know Bill's grandad's name. :) Don't you just love that small town closeness! Both Isaac's grandpa and great-grandpa were proud to show off their grandson. :) Here are a couple pics from the night.

Play Time with Gracie!

Recently Isaac has had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with the daughter of a friend of ours, Gracie, as her parents have watched Isaac for us, and we have watched Gracie for them. They really get a kick out of playing with each other. Gracie is such a helper - handing him his pacifier when she stumbled across it, and making sure she wipes his face with his burp cloth when she gets hold of that too. :) She is really sweet with him, and loves patting him and giving him kisses. :) These are a couple pictures of one of their playdates when I was watching Gracie one afternoon.

Another fun filled event of the summer was our neice, Edie's, 1st birthday party. It was a ton of fun and hilarious to see all the kiddos playing together...even though Isaac is still not quite "playing" with everyone else just yet. Here are some pictures from the party.

This is Grandma "Pansy" with Isaac and cousin Edie - the birthday girl!

Mommy and Isaac chillin' with our shades. (He HATES his face being in the son, so we figured we'd try sunglasses....and they work!)

Daddy and Isaac playing in the pool/sprinkler. (This was the coolest little baby pool EVER!) He had fun stomping in the water. :)

Funnynesses

Well, Jessica left her computer unguarded, so this is Bill here, deciding that I should join the digital age and blog something. For a while Isaac has been doing something we called laughing, but was really just him making a continuous aaaaaaahhh sound and smiling. We were so proud. A few days ago though, he finally started taking his giggling responsibilities seriously. For some reason, if I made a funny (funny strange, not funny haha) sound in my throat, Isaac just started giggling uncontrolably. Apparently he doesn't know how to distinguish between funny strange and funny haha. Or he has them backwards. hmmm. let me check.


ok, I just gave him my best panda related material, and nothing. So he must have "funny strange" and "funny haha" backwards in his mind. Alas. I'll have to work on that. Anyway, back on topic, we got a video of him giggling. so cute. And quite funny, as you can tell by the grownup laughter clouding the audio track:

ok, so I had to get Jessica's help to put the video up. Maybe I'm not quite that digital yet. I did successfully edit the video all by myself though. I even purpesfully added the "unregistered version" watermark to the vid just so I could be more viral. Because that's how viral I am.

Viral is a good thing these days, right?
