The day after we arrived home from Utah for Joe's dad's funeral, Joseph and I (along with Isaac) headed for a trip to Southern California. We stayed at the St. Regis Resort at Monarch Beach. It was nice to have a pleasant breather before getting back to the daily routine of life. We were able to clear our minds and have a little fun. I took it easy and enjoyed being the mom to just Isaac while my mom took care of the other three kids at our home. I had time to take a million pictures of him. I wish I knew the first thing about photography, but you can't really go wrong with such a cute subject.
Isaac was a cutie at the pool. We gave him a little dip and he was slightly startled with the whole experience.
I love these two so much! (Along with the rest of the crew at home.)
We had some nice visits with Taryn and Ryan. Joe and Ryan had me laughing harder than I have in a long time. I loved hearing all of their stories and sharing funny experiences. We enjoyed lots of good food, between comfort food for a funeral and lots of really good food on our trip, we both came home with some extra padding on our tummies and hips. :) Why is it so hard to get back on track? I keep putting it off, but I need to start kicking myself into high gear.
I've decided that Isaac was born to be a first child, not a fourth. He was great on the trip, the boy loves to have our undivided attention, and that he had!

Wow. Are you EVER home?
Isaac is soooo cute!
It is totally weird to look at all those sunny pictures and read about a dip in the pool when we are freezing and neck deep in snow up here. I think I'm ready for some South California weather!
It looks like you had a relaxing time. Isaac is just too cute for words. What you said about him being the first born cracked me up.
I read the comment you made on my blog, I am so sorry you had to pay taxes and the amount.....OUCH!
What a great relaxing vacation! (too bad it was for business!!!) You still look great, even if you are not where you want to be. Kc and Ash just moved down there in Jan...He started grad school at CA Fullerton. Anyways I am hoping to come up that way probably sometime this summer! Hope you will be around so we can see you...I'll email you more later!
What a great time you had. It looks like such a nice resort. I hope things are going well for your family. Little Isaac is adorable and seems to be such a happy little guy.
Isaac is a doll; I think my favorite is the picture of him chillin' in the lawn chair by the pool! Those little getaways are so awesome, aren't they? And by the way, you look fabulous!
That is one seriously adorable little boy. His big beautiful eyes are just amazing! How nice that you guys were able to take a trip like that after the funeral. That had to be therapeutic.
cute pics! isacc is getting so big and smiley! i love it!
I'm so glad we were able to visit with you guys much more this trip, it was fun! Isaac really is an adorable baby, I love his pool gear.
Isaac is too cute. And what a great trip!
I admit, I'm a little jealous. (I know, it's not a very grown up trait. Sigh.) The executor thing takes so much of Blaine's time, I haven't spent more than a few hours with him in the last few weeks, and that includes Sundays. Always things to do, always on the phone, always running down to meet with someone or take care of something. I could really use a weekend away! But if I did it now, I'd have to go by myself...
What a cute boy, he is definetely photogenic along with you two. Sounds you had a lot of fun I am jealous. I already miss you guys so much.

Isaac is a cutie. The pictures with the hat on are great. Looks like a great place for an escape.
Isaac is growing up so fast! He's darling. I'm glad you guys got some rest and relaxation in.
oh man i am digging that little white hat. he's so handsome, and can i say that you look amazing.....you just bounce right back. glad you fun.
Life is busy, so I don't get to check in very often, but I wanted to send my condolences to your family. I hope you will all be blessed with the spirit of comfort in the coming months and years.
