Isaac is 6 months old!






Can you believe it?! I can't!! Our little buddy is 6 months old today! He was full of smiles (and cries) today and I managed to get a few on camera!

Isaac has been such a blessing. We love our buddy buddy very much--he brings us so much joy. More than anything, I love to see Hannah and Isaac interact. They are both so adorable I could just eat them up.

Jason is giving him his bottle and then Jason will take him up to bed (I put Hannah to bed a few minutes ago). Jason and I will relax for an hour or two and head to bed ourselves.

Love to all!

How adorable is he!!! I cannot believe he is six months old.. Enjoy your couple hours of quiet time. Time alone with your spouse is treasured time with two little ones..

He is SOOOOO cute! How do you get anything done all day? Do you just want to snuggle him and kiss him all over those cheeks?
You can tell his little personality is starting to develop and he's learning to express himself! You may have a HAM on your hands!

Sorry to hear about Clinton. How sad for the people staying at RMDH but how exciting that he's at the feet of the Lord.

I know your time is tight but I LOVE to see pics of the kiddos. The joy just radiates from every photo :-)
Keep 'em coming!

He is so cute!! I was so excited to see that you had posted pictures again! I'm sure it's much harder at home than it was at RMH.

Miss ya,

Wow, it's been six months already? Goodness Gracious. (I've been saing that a lot lately. Even in my German classes.)

I know I should have commented more. But lately I seem to find no motivation to do anytihng other than thinking about like and myself. How selfish.
And the worst thing about that? I don't even study. Which is only bad because my exams start on Monday. Cultural Studies is killing me. As is Logic. But I lvoe my Linguistics class. And my Grammar class.

Hmpf, that's frustrating.

Do you watch "Criminals Minds" on CBS? I love that show. Seriously. If I ever find a guy like Reid I'd probably marry him. He's simply adorable and fun and intelligent- Basically everytihng a girl could want.
Wait, getting ahead of myself here. I don't even date.

Loads of hugs, Maxi

Hey Evans Family,
I can't believe how Isaac has grown!! I'm sure the last six months have been a blur, but at least you are home and happy.
By the way where is his Ohio State outfit since they were trying to play last night!!
Take Care,

YAY Isaac!! Happy 1/2 birthday!

So sorry to hear about your friend, Clinton. So glad to know he is happy in Heaven!

Gram said...

Hey those are dimples and so does Hannah. The last picture looks like Isaac was startled about something. Hey happy birthday Isaac, 6 months!! Can we all say Praise The Lord not only once but several times.

We love the pictures of course, at least you got some of him smiling with that great big grin of his. We love it!!!

Lots of Love, Gram and Papa

Gram said...

I forgot to ask and you can answer later the line that is above Isaac's diaper area is that the scar from his surgury?? Just curious.

Love ya, Me

Tiffany,

I've been following your blog for some time and haven't commented as of yet, but of all the things that have compelled me, these pictures of your sweet, healthy Isaac smiling and growing, make my heart want to burst. What a miracle and extraordinary blessing!

I feel privileged that you've shared your journey and I have to tell you that I have shed tears over your heartache and I'm happy now to share your joy since your son is home.

We too have adopted our daughter who is now 2 and our son who is 8 months old. Prior to that, we suffered through heartache and loss in the NICU with our two bioligical daughters. I truly know that your heart must be elated and that there is hardly enough praise to shout to the world how good God truly is!

May God bless you and keep you! You have an incredible family!

BTW- I came across you c/o of the Canton Rep, great article!

I had to come back again today and take another look at those big eyes, gummy grin, and the expressive little face of Sir Isaac. What a precious boy!

Do you want a baby sling? I have a cloth sling in a bright frog fabric (yes MSU colors... I know, I failed my husband with my frog obsession...). It's yours for the wearing if you want it. Some people (and babies) really like sling carrying their kiddos. I was too short, to use my lovely frog sling very long. I got a Kangaroo Wrap for Aaron which worked better for my height. Our boys liked being in the sling and it did free my hands up a bit. Anyway, if you want it let me know and I'll stick it in the mail.

OH, I have a swimming one, too. It's made of football jersey mesh so you can walk right into the pool and not lose your grip on a wiggly wet baby. I only used it once or twice but it works great if you are slinging swimming person. You are welcome to it, also.

Do you like your Bumbo seat? My boys loved it. They liked being in the midst of the action all the time. Plus, it really seemed to strengthen their trunk muscles which made mobility easier (is that a good thing with boys??)

Kiss those beautiful Babies for us and tell them their Miller friends say hello.

Hi Tiffany - I'm just finally catching up on some comments from my Quito blog for the month of January, so am now coming over to say "hi". :) I will have to read more about the journey of your family and your beautiful children when it's not inching in on bedtime. We have two children as well, one of them an adopted premie - ~28 weeks. :) She is almost four and thriving!

GR is one of our home bases when we're in the states as my inlaws and entire extended family live there. It's such a small world.

I found the Bucks listed on your website as well - they are another site I frequent but I do not know them...found them through someone elses blog nearly a year ago. I feel like I know them. Crazy, crazy.

Anyway, sorry to be windy in my introductory "hi" to you. :) Blessings on your new ministry as well!
