I had to take pictures of Isaac's first bite marks. The pictures are not very good but if you will look at his left cheek (right in the picture) you will see marks from the row of top teeth and two long marks from the bottom teeth. If you haven't guessed it already, Cael was the culprit. OF COURSE! He is such a bully. I not quite sure what he was thinking but he sure got in trouble for it. NAUGHTY, NAUGHTY BOY! He can be so exasperating at times. Luckily there was no permanent damage. By the time Rob got home from work, the marks were gone.




More up close and personal with the bite. Actually, I have a scar quite similar to this one. Funny, it never occurred to me before just now. (sorry, no comparison pictures. My bite mark is in a place that is....well lets just say that it would not be appropriate for a picture to be taken for the sake of comparison.) Mine, however, was the result of a vicious dog not a vicious big brother.






As you can see, the bite did not turn Isaac into a werewolf or even worse, a temperamental red head (we have enough of those in the household right now). He is just as cute as he ever was. In fact, even cuter. I know I am a little biased but he is just REALLY cute. He is always trying to catch my eye and smile at me. What a sweet boy.

What a beautiful day! We could not pass up the opportunity to drive downtown and take a walk through Riverfront park. We fed the ducks, fed trash to the goat (there is a metal statue in the form of a goat. It has a high powered hose that sucks trash up through its mouth when you turn it on), we got to listen to some awesome Native American music with incredible acoustics (two guys beating drums and singing under a bridge), and slide down a giant radio flyer wagon handle. It was a lot of fun.

Isaac didn't seem to think it was all that great. He just hung out and took a nap. As you can see here, he was really tired.











Gabe just LOVES this slide. He talks about it all of the time. Underneath the slide is a couple of different sets of monkey bars as well. The kids have such a good time. Hey, in fact, Rob and I took turns sliding down it as well. I must admit that I enjoyed it immensely.








Cael had a good time too. It was a little overwhelming for him at first but in just a matter of seconds he was running back to go down on his own.
