first 6 months

	Isaac took his first no-hands step this week. Here he is in our bedroom, pulling himself up on his crib. For the first few days he'd nuzzle the bars and bump his nose and cry, but that's over now.
	He's a strong kid, and playing with 1.5 liter bottles of water just makes him stronger. Here he's driving his water bottles around our kitchen, by the dishwasher, on our sea grass floor covering (that tan plaid pattern you see).
Isaac doesn't watch much television, not because he's not absolutely captivated by the idiot box (you can see the range of emotions flashing across his face), but because we don't think there's much worthwhile on. Two things he does get to watch is Sesame Street (he loves the Elmo character) and Teletubbies (he loves the smiling baby in the sun).
	Because he's now really starting to crawl at high speeds around the house, and beginning to pull himself up on drawers, we've gotten him a SuperYard playpen. Here you see him fenced in, on a comfortable carpet, in our living room. The pen's walls are a soft plastic, and he doesn't hurt his nose or teeth like the wood of his crib does.
	Here's on of the more messy meals we've fed our boy. Oatmeal, as it turns out, is much more sticky than I remember. It wasn't that Isaac was more rambunctious than usual, but all three of us were covered with oatmeal flakes before this meal was done. Then I took Isaac into the shower, and the cleanup was quickly done.
	When Rose put this stuffed panda bear toy in front of Isaac he'd crawl up to it and mouth its nose. Again and again. Our funny boy.
