Mr. Muscles


Here's a cute one of Shiloh flexing his huge guns. :)

No More Curls. :(






We had family pictures scheduled for Saturday night, so we decided we better cut Shiloh's hair, rather than be brushing it out of his eyes the whole time. I've been putting it off as long as possible because he had these beautiful curls in the back, and I just couldn't cut them off. But I gave in and we turned our kitchen into a barber shop for a few minutes Saturday morning. At first he was a little confused about what was going on, then he made a game out of handing Daddy his hair and he sat fairly still. Well, still for him. Here are a few pictures.

My Birthday Weekend






So, can I just say I have the most wonderful hubby ever!!! Saturday was my birthday, and Izaak's favorite thing is to surprise me, which, although I do like surprises, actually drives me crazy beacuse I HATE waiting. So all week I was bugging him for hints and early presents, but he didn't crack. He usually works 10-6:30 on Saturdays, but told me he switched to the early shift so he could go in at 8 and come home early. Well, we got up Saturday morning, and he gave me the new Rush of Fools cd - which is awesome - and got all ready and left. A few minutes later I hear a knock on the door and it's Izaak with Panera for breakfast. He tells me to get in the shower and get ready, and he's going to take Shiloh to play with Uncle Jordan and Aunt Sue. So once we're in the car he hands me a wad of cash and tells me we're spending the day in Williamsburg - shopping! Ok - two of my favorite things already: spending the day with my love and shopping! Then, after shopping we have dinner reservations at an unbelievably amazing gourmet Italian restaurant in downtown Norfolk called La Galleria. The atmosphere was perfect, which sometimes I care more about than the food, and dinner was absolutely delicious. Then, we're on our way back to pick up the little munchkin man, and Izaak drives right past the exit and says he has one more surprise: a hotel on the Boardwalk for the night! It was wonderful! On Sunday we got up and ate at this little mom & pop diner, took a fun but freezing walk on the beach, and then headed back to pick up Mr. Shiloh, who, by the way, wanted to stay with Jordan and Sue. :)

What an amazing man! I'm so thankful for him and the way he loves and takes care of me. It was a perfect weekend, and I'm so thankful for the time to spend with just him and be reminded of just why I love him so much! :)

Trick or Treat!






Here are a few fun moments from our night out candy hunting! We went over to our friends, the Dribbles', house with Caleb, Carmen, and Cole. It was lots of fun. Shiloh was Chicken Little. He quickly caught on to the whole concept of knocking on the door and getting the candy. He always held his hand out for more... I think we need to work on not being greedy. :)
