Hello, My Name Is Isaac

Hello, my name is Isaac Craig Merback. I am named after my Papa. I am a fun little 4 year old guy that loves superheroes, star wars, my friends, watching movies and talking Mommies ear off.

My Mommy says she wishes she would have cropped this

picture so that you could just see my face. But I'm glad you can see my cousin Reesie in the background. I miss her. This is my sister Georgie:

We went on a bike ride and we had to put on our warmest clothes...it was FREEZING outside!

Georgie really rode her bike this time! She figured out how to make little circles with her peddles all by herself! We were so proud of her and she was proud too!

Isn't she doing so well!

But I am so much faster!

Sometimes I get frusterated with my Mom because she makes me do things all by myself...like pushing my bike through the grass. I don't like doing that because my training wheels always scrape my ankles. Darn that Mommy!

Here's Georgie giving me a push.

I know this picture is blurry but I love this picture because I LOVE holding hands with my sister. Most of the time she won't hold my hand because she's a stinker so I wanted to show you that sometimes she does!

Here's Georgie "helping" Mom bake a cake.

She always looks like this. But sometimes the stuff on her face is not cake. It could be something like marker, glue, or snot.

I had to put this picture on because I took it ALL by myself!

Here's a spaceship that I made with Mommy out of paper plates,

a clear plastic cup, foil and lots of duct tape. It's Supermans spaceship. I brought it to show and tell at school.

Here I am with my friends at Benjamins birthday party. His cake is an AF jet plane! AWESOME!

Still at Benjamins party...slaying dragons! See that Superman "plate" (he insisted it be called this) on my shirt? I make mommy print these off on the computer and then tape them on to the front of my shirts. I LOVE superheros!

MMMMM...donuts on a string!

Powdered Sugar Face

Mom says I'm handsome...

and that I talk a lot.

She loves that I tell her all about the details of my day.

This is my preschool class

And this is one of my best friends, Benjamin.

More of my best friends, Brett and Maile. I like playing with them.

As you can see, I'm a pretty busy guy. My friends at school call me Isaac M and I love having a nickname. I hope you have a happy Thanksgiving. I know that mine will be happy because my Papa, Gaga, Mimi and Pop Pop are coming. So are Aunt J and Lizzy. And we're going to puppy-sit Mojo, our neighbors new baby Yorkie. I'm telling Mommy to tell you that our neighbors are named John and Sandy and sometimes John puts on a REALLY scary mask and says he's the joker. And I'm Batman, so I kill him. Bye

We're In Good Hands

I'm frequently asked just how nice it is to have a pediatrician in the home. Today I'd have to say "pretty, darn nice." If Joey hadn't been around with all his "know-how", I would have taken Gigi into the emergency room this weekend. Consider exhibit A:

This is the position Georgie has kept for nearly two days straight, (actually her eyes are usually open, staring off into space) with a few Tylenol highs mixed in. Sometimes sound effects are added such as moaning, whimpering and shrill cries for Mommy. And don't forget the sound of dry heaving and vomiting. She is so scared of throwing up now that you know one is coming because she begins to shake her head, "no, no, no" and then masks a dry heave with a fake cough. Her temperature has been flirting with 104' several times. But, Dr.Daddy is on call with his stethoscope and Ibuprofen and I have nothing to worry about. He makes sure she is not "septic" (you don't really need to know what that means) every once in a while and I am comforted enough, at his reassurance, that she is going to be just fine. Here's to a better day tomorrow for our sweet Georgie girl.

On a happier note, here's Isaac and Daddy on their first private date! I've rarely seen Isaac come home happier! They went to the park, then to Long John Silvers for a treasure chest meal and then topped it all off with Ice Cream from Brahms (an Oklahoma specialty!).

Goodbye our favorite boys!

Georgie and I had a little fun too...lots of books were read at home!

And one more just for fun....One of our favorite past times, coloring!

Happy Halloween!

Here are some pictures of the ward halloween party that I was in charge of.

I had a lot of helpers and it turned out really fun!

My little Batman and his pink poodle...can you tell that's what she is?

Before we put her ears on we sprayed her hair pink. At this point I began to wish I had made her a rock star...there's always next year;)

Yes, I know, my face is WAY to green. But that's what happens when you don't do trial run.

Remind me NEVER to do this again:)

Georgie wandered around aimlessly during the games because I was sooo busy getting things organized and Joey wasn't there yet. She stole peoples candy, settled into a corner somewhere and sucked on the packages until sugar began to seep through. About 10 minutes after this picture was taken, her entire costume was shredded and she no longer appeared to be anything of consequence....That's my girl!
