Isaiah's explorations...


I thought this picture of Isaiah was cute. This was yesterday morning when Josh was getting ready for school and I was getting up and ready for the day. Isaiah finds new ways of exploring things everyday, which at least keep things interesting. Yesterday it was climbing in and out of drawers, this morning it was putting the pots and lids out of our bottom kitchen drawer and shaking them and listening for the banging when they'd hit the floor. It's just so amazing to watch him and you can tell that he's thinking and learning everytime he tries something new. I think it helps me look at the world through new eyes sometimes when I see him look or discover something for the first time! I guess your kids do help to keep you young.

We had a wonderful afternoon yesterday after we picked Josh up from school. Our power was out for a couple of hours in the afternoon (this happens three time a week now starting this week all over the island due to our power system needing replaced/repaired) so after we picked Josh up we stopped at the Caribe Cafe on the way home and had a couple of drinks. It's the only place on the island you can get coffee and tea drinks like you can get them at home (the closest thing we have to Starbucks). It's right across from Port Zante and you can see the water, so we sat out on the patio and enjoyed some family time as well as the ocean breeze. Isaiah didn't cooperate with an afternoon nap, so we ended up getting takeout, but Isaiah did sleep so Josh and I could enjoy a peaceful dinner together, which was nice. All in all it was a very nice and much needed family evening together.

Josh is hopeful that his physiology test went well yesterday and hopefully he'll get the scores for both of his tests by tomorrow! We're just keeping our fingers crossed that he'll keep doing as well as he has been so that all our time apart since moving will be worth it!!!

We miss you!

Until next time.....

  1. This blog is such a great idea! Thanks for setting it up so all of us state-side can see what you're up to in the tropics. Glad you're starting to settle in. It takes a little while to make somewhere new feel like a home, but it sounds like you're getting there! Love you much!
