isaiah is seven. he started second grade. this is the year he learns cursive and receives his First Holy Communion. big year.

we had a busy summer. one of the biggest things that happened to isaiah was that he played the role of Magician #1 in the church musical Are We There Yet? which is the story of Moses. he had to audition for the role. he was great and so were the other 90 kids in the musical. we *all* learned the *entire* musical, lines and songs for every character. isaiah had two lines: "and that's not the least of your problems!" and "your highness, don't be fooled. it's a simple magic trick." owen, especially, knows isaiah's line and performs them with much gusto. it's really cute.

isaiah had a ben 10 birthday party. all he knows about ben 10 is from reading a coloring/activity book that i got him and from short conversations with tito ryan. he isn't allowed to watch the cartoon because we haven't deemed it appropriate for him to watch (we try to limit the violence that enters his little brain). when i had asked him what kind of birthday party he wanted he said that he wanted "an alien birthday. but not the kind i had before when you put up the black curtain and had space ships and aliens hanging. like, a different kind of alien party." he totally wanted a ben 10 party but didn't want to ask outright because he knew we didn't completely approve of the cartoon. oh, isaiah. he was pleasantly surprised to find the house decorated in ben 10 on his 7th birthday. by the way, he still hasn't seen one episode of the cartoon. to be honest, some of the decorations were a little scary for the little ones.

9.27.2011 - isaiah loses his first tooth! eric and i were out for our anniversary, so we completely missed it. the permanent teeth for his bottom middle teeth were growing in behind the baby teeth, and both baby teeth were loose. the one on the left (his left) was more loose. the story goes like this: he bumps into xavier and his tooth falls out. he runs up the stairs carrying his tooth. "nani! i lost my tooth!!!" at the top of the stairs he bumps into ethan. the tooth goes flying. "oh, no! i really lost my tooth!" no worries, the tooth fairy knows where all the teeth are. she ended up leaving him $2.50. a one dollar bill, a one dollar coin and a fifty cent piece. second tooth should be coming out any day now!
