Wow, so my past two blogs were really whiny. Sorry.
Things have been much better. First-- my sister is home! Hurray!
Second, Isaac has been a lot better. I plan to accidentlyonpurpose forget his binky when we go to the shore for a week on August 9th. That's how we got him off of his night time bottle. So typically on Sundays my mom takes Isaac to church at the ward she and my dad attend (spanish speaking) and I go to the city to the singles ward. I am so blessed. It works out so well. If my parents are out of town, I generally take Isaac to my English speaking family ward. It is very rare that there is a situation when I must take him with me to a family ward. However, this past Sunday was one of those times. My parents dropped him off on their way to the airport and he attended our combined RS/Priesthood meeting where we were learning about the ward mission plan. He was pretty good throughout (especially since singles wards are so silent you can hear a pin drop). However, he was bothered by one of the pictures on the handouts. It was a picture of a statue of the Savior. He points to it.
"Mom, who is that?"
"Isaac, it's Jesus"
"No it's not..... Mom, who is that man?"
"Shh, Isaac it's Jesus."
"NO IT'S NOT! JESUS IS NOT ALL WHITE... Mom, who is that man?" This repeats about five more times until he is being so disruptive I have to take him out to the hallway.
When we are out in the hallway he points to a color painting of the Savior and says "See, there's Jesus! JESUS IS NOT ALL WHITE! JESUS IS BROWN LIKE ME!" I had a good laugh about that for, like, an hour. I've really got to replace my camera so I can get some recent shots of him up here. The one above is older but still very Isaac. He loves dancing, Spiderman, the Hulk, riding his tricycle, Little Einstien's and Transformers. He is 100% boy, despite my efforts to enroll him dance class (absolutely refused to attend) and expose him to "girl" toys (the only time he ever uses his dollhouse is as a stepstool to reach his lightswitch). He is the light of my life.
It's the last week of my job. I will be really sad to have this one end. It's so easy and such good money. I work 8:30-2:30-- best hours ever. Even if I get a contract position, I might do it again next summer just to keep busy and have some extra cash.
Okay, one last thing. Is there a way to subscribe to your friend's blogs on this thing? Like, so when you sign it tells you that your friends have posted new blogs? Just curious. I am still getting the hang of things. If anyone out there knows, let me know!

Hehe, I'm still giggling about his reaction to the statue. Kids are so funny about things. I loved being in the primary - you hear the best stories. Like the girl who was trying to respond to a question about preisthood blessings in their homes and she told about how her sister had "the throw-ups" and broke her computer game because she "throwed up" on it; she forgot the point of the story in the middle.
You can use Google Reader or use RSS feeds on peoples' blogs. I try to waste time on the internet, so I enjoy checking everyone's blogs. But I know those are things that work.
