The McCabes

Update

2012-02-10T22:24:00.002-05:00

Happy Valentines Day! My last post was in the fall. Our best news is that my dad is doing well. He is home recovering from a very successful surgery he underwent just before Christmas. In fact, he will most likely go back to work in a couple of weeks. We are so thrilled and grateful for his recovery, the work of his doctors, and Gods peace and comfort through it all.

We had a fun Thanksgiving in Cleveland with all of the Myers/McCabes. Ultimate frisbee, a trip to Mally's, lots of good food, and a huge bowling bonanza. We also got to meet Mercer and see Jamie, Laura, Aunt Kathy, and Uncle John.

We spent December in Florida. We were able to have some fun and relaxation on Merritt Island before heading to Tampa for my dad's surgery. Anna's family and ours stayed in a renal house over Christmas so that we could be near mom and dad at the hospital. Dan worked daddy-overtime and took the kids down for a visit to the McCabe's in Miami. I missed going with them but was glad to be able to help get my dad home.

We're back in full swing in Virginia. Enjoying a mild winter, although we'd like to sled at least once this winter! Love to all!

Happy Birthday Isaac!

2012-02-10T22:09:00.003-05:00

To mark Isaac's second birthday he received our family's first ever broken bone. He wore a cast for 3 weeks and has healed like new. The whole experience reinforced what a resilient, sweet, and laid back guy he is. He and Cora have been having so much fun together lately and make a great brother/sister team. Their favorite times together are dance parties, reading together, and playing outside. Isaac is talking more each week and repeats just about everything he hears. He loves Thomas Trains and is learning the names of all the characters. He is quite the charmer and has made friends with all of the teachers at JW Tumbles, where he goes each week with Lauren our wonderful babysitter. We are so in love with our smiley, snuggley, funny guy and excited for what his third year has in store!

2011-11-02T21:15:00.002-05:00

Denise and Bob hosted our 3rd annual Read Reunion at their beautiful lake-side farm. It was so great to catch up with family and get to relax in nature. Pop was missed as he spent the weekend in FL resting and recuperating with Aunt Kathy. We look forward to having him back with us next year!

Dan and I enjoyed our first 'weekend away' to attend Rebecca and Taylor's wedding. Huge thank you to Amy for making this possible!

Thanksgiving

2011-11-01T21:28:00.003-05:00

I know its early but I haven't written in a while and thought I would get a quick update down. My first thought was to wait until Thanksgiving. Not sure why, maybe seemed like a better time to do a big update, or maybe that I would have more time then. I use this blog mostly for our benefit as a running journal for us to look back on, especially because I am not great about scrapbooks or journals. I also like that we still have some faithful followers after these few years and its fun to see who's come by to check out what Isaac and Cora have been up to. Sometimes I feel so far from some of our dearest loved ones and technology can help bridge that gap.

So, on with it...

I hate to say that life has been busy, because I know that life seems to be quite busy for so many lately. However, when I stop to think about this fall so far that is the first word I come to. The weeks are really zipping by in a way I'm not used too. I often find myself catching my breath. I started teaching at RCC, Cora's preschool, in September. It was a very difficult decision as to whether or not start teaching again, especially since Isaac won't start school until next fall. After much deliberation I applied and got the job. As with any first year, its been a whirlwind since the start of school. I'm really glad to be back in the classroom and love my part time schedule. God truly sent us a wonderful babysitter for Isaac. And, I am enjoying the extra time with Cora as she gets closer to Kindergarten.

In June, my dad was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. He is in the middle of treatment now and should have major surgery in early December. We are thankful that the cancer was caught early. His doctors seem quite positive about his ability to get well. In their words, he will be able to look back on this. I am so grateful for our family and friends who are so supportive and prayerful.

Here come some pictures. Love to all!

Happy Birthday to Mommy

Deep Creek Lake

2011-07-20T21:50:00.005-05:00

We took a last minute family vacation with Uncle Matt, Aunt Nicole, Ella (4 in August), and Olivia (10 weeks)to Deep Creek Lake, MD. Dan and Matt found a beautiful house with a view of the lake, a playset, a hot tub, and a fire pit. Everyone had a great time hiking, swimming, playing, and relaxing. I hope it becomes an annual tradition.

Cora says of Ella-"She is my cousin and my friend". Indeed!

Andi

2011-07-20T21:42:00.002-05:00

We have been so fortunate to have time with Andi and Aunt Anna over the past few weeks. We've watched her go from newborn to a smiling sweet girl. Its so hard to be away from her as I know she changes by the day. Thank goodness for technology, it does help us feel closer during the time between visits.

Isaac!

2011-07-20T21:32:00.002-05:00

Isaac is 18 months old! He is a little firecracker of love and energy. He and Cora have a special relationship and it is fun to watch them able to communicate and play together more and more. She really looks out for him and he definitely looks up to her. Lately he has been climbing on everything. He is quick and quiet. I have to keep quite the eye on him. He is giggly and often has a mischievous glint in his eye. As you can see from the pictures, his hair has become his trademark and I can't go anywhere without someone commenting about it. I hope he doesn't look back and hate me for not cutting it, I LOVE those curls! The things that make Isaac most excited are: trucks (from garbage to pick up), trains, dogs, books, Dan (dada), Cora (RaRa), and being able to run free.

Cora's Birthday

2011-07-20T21:13:00.004-05:00

We celebrated Cora's 4th birthday with 2 parties, dinner at John & Ems(with special guest Grandpa Pat), a family camping trip, and even more celebrating at Aunt Anna's house in GA. Some might say that we went a little overboard...the fun just kept coming.

Cora grew like a weed this year. Went from the 25% to 75%. I was wondering why I had to keep buying her new clothes and shoes until we went to her 4-year well appointment. Its strange for Dan and I to have anyone considered 'tall' as one of our children, maybe she takes after my dad...

Cora will start her last year of preschool in September. She learned to read this year which has been pretty incredible to witness. She literally just picked it up and can now read just about anything you hand her. She is also excited because she is learning to swim. She loves babies and has enjoyed meeting and helping with her 2 new cousins, Andi & Olivia. She is begging for a dog but we're hoping that IshIsh, the beta fish she got for her birthday, holds her off for a while. I'm so proud and so in love with my growing girl.

A Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Easter

2011-04-29T20:29:00.004-05:00

Dan and I are confident we've found the church home we've been searching for. We've been attending for a few months now and plan to join the church in May. We look forward to having Cora and Isaac baptized soon and having them nurtured by such a loving church family. Having found our new church made Easter even more special this year.

"Let us emerge from the tombs in which we have lived and embrace the possibilities God places before us this and every day." Easter Service 2011, Western Presbyterian Church

What a season to celebrate the opportunities before us and to become the best we can be!

Hoping you and yours had a moment to rejoice and be filled with renewal. Happy Easter,
Dan, Molly, Cora, & Isaac

FL in January

2011-02-07T20:50:00.003-05:00

We got (somewhat) out of the cold with a trip to Florida. I had fun seeing old friends, getting my jogging legs back, and enjoying lots of time with my sister and parents. I was happy to be down to attend Joanna's sprinkle to celebrate the pending arrival of baby Ashlyn. Leslie Magnone and her mom threw a beautiful shower for Anna. It was so much fun watching Anna receive gifts and books for she and Andi and getting well wishes from so many wonderful people from her childhood. Dan flew in mid-week and we were blessed by a visit from his parents, their foster kids, and Dan's sisters. Everyone and Lorraine and Gail got together for a cookout and birthday cake for Isaac. It was fun to have all 4 of his grandparents together to celebrate his 1st birthday!

chicken

2011-02-03T19:49:00.002-05:00

conversation at dinner tonight:
Cora: Mom 'chicken' and 'chicken' sound the same. That's funny because we have chicken the animal and chicken we eat.
Me: yes
Cora: Well where does the chicken we eat come from. Do the chickens make it?
Me: not exactly
Cora: What is chicken we eat?
Me: (hesitantly) Well, Cora, the chicken we eat is the animal chicken. We eat the animal chicken.
Cora: (laughing) Mom, that's silly, we don't eat the animal chicken! That would be mean.

Fortunately, she got distracted by her distorted reflection in her spoon at that point. This now gives me time to consult with Dan on what we say next time this subject comes up. Parenting, oy vey!

Happy 1st Birthday Isaac!

2011-01-08T21:27:00.003-05:00

"He will laugh"

One of the reasons Dan and I chose the name Isaac was because of this translation. Laughter has such power to heal, strengthen, and bridge. It has certainly been one of the best forces in our marriage and I am so grateful for a husband who I can laugh with often...in the good times and bad.

In his first year Isaac has lived up to his namesake. For those of you who have met him you know, he truly is a sweet boy, joyful and happy. He has been such a blessing to us this year. As the four of us danced tonight to celebrate his birthday I thought about how hard it is to imagine our lives without him.

As a growing 12 month old he is now 'speed crawling', cruising, using push toys to walk, climbing stairs, and standing on his own. His favorite things to do are push cars and trucks, open and close piles of books, play peek-a-boo with Cora, dance to music, and roll balls. He gets excited about seeing animals, especially dogs. He loves to say 'da-da' when Dan comes into the room. He also says 'ba' for ball and bath. Occasionally we hear a 'ra-ra' for Cora and a 'ma-ba' for me. He likes to try and brush his hair, put on hats, and talk on the phone. One of my favorite things about him is that he loves to snuggle. He crawls over while playing to put his head on my lap and loves to rock before bed with his head on my shoulder(of course in these moments I want time to be still).

Happy Birthday my darling boy!

Uncle Matt & Dan conducted a successful experiment with an infrared turkey frier (moist and delicious...and no hot oil)

There were tears as Ella and Cora said goodbye and lots of questions on the way home as to when they could be together again. Friends & cousins...the best!

2010-10-21T21:34:00.003-05:00

9 months? So hard to believe the weather is cooling and we are approaching the season of Isaac's birth!
He remains an incredibly sweet, fun-loving baby. He is really on the move now, crawling and pulling up. He is quick and sneaky and keeps us on our toes. He is a giggler and ticklish. Its hard to keep him still, so reading books and changing diapers are a challenge; although he is starting to laugh at pictures of animals...or the sounds I make when I show them to him. He loves people and is always flashing a smile and getting someone's attention. He likes to put his "hands-up", play with balls (just starting to get the idea of sending it back), see dogs and birds, dance (bounce) and of course watch his big sister. He also wants to feed himself, so we eat naked or change in the high chair...bibs are no match for this kid! One of my favorite things about Isaac right now is how excited he gets to see Dan. Such a love!

First Day

2010-09-15T19:09:00.003-05:00

Today was the first day of school! We've spent all summer looking forward to "3 year-old school" and now its here! I've never been more excited for you. I love the school you are attending: Resurrection Children's Center. Your teachers, Lois and Missy (and everyone else that works there), are so warm and friendly. I feel like they already love you. This makes me so happy and just a little more at ease leaving you. I'm already so proud of you and know that you will do and learn so much. I hope you love school now, and always...it can be such a great place.

As big as today seemed it is tomorrow and the days after I am most looking forward too; hearing about your new friends, the activities you do, and how each day you will learn more about life and yourself. Please always remember how much your dad and I love you, be kind to others, and jump in with both feet each day! You already amaze me.

For the memory books:
Impressing myself, we were all fed, dressed, and ready to leave early this morning. Brother even got a nap! I'm sure every morning will not go this smoothly but I'm glad we got off on the right foot. Jameson was getting in his car as we left the house. I'm so glad I got a picture of you two hugging. You've already learned so much from each other it seems appropriate that you would start this adventure together. When we got to school we took more pictures and met up with Ilona and Maryanna. Although you have several friends at school you don't know anyone in your class very well yet. Lois greeted you at the door and Missy welcomed you into the room. I watched for just a moment at the door as you played quietly at the sand table. I thought about you the whole time you were at school even though I had a meeting and tried to entertain Isaac at the library (he wanted to pull all the books off the shelves). We picked out some new books and DVDs for you. I called Grandma and Aunt Anna just to talk about you. When we arrived to pick you up you were running around on the playground. Lois said you had a really great first day. I watched you line up and walk inside, you looked so grown-up but my heart thinks of you as my baby. You told me your favorite thing of the day stats with the letter 'P', playdough! I love you Cora.

We had a fun road trip to Atlanta for the 4th. We stayed at Aunt Anna, Uncle Wes, and Tristan's beautiful new home. They have 2 big dogs (Juno, weimaraner & Marley, great dane), a pool, and a gorgeous fenced in yard. Cora did art projects, got her first manicure, and went to her first movie theater movie with Aunt Anna (Toy Story 3). We took a day trip to Waynesville to see Lorraine, Rodney, and fam and a day trip to Tate to see Denise, Sarah, Ike, and Bob. We also got to catch up with some of our old Atlanta friends. Even a week seemed too short!

New camera and Isaac milestones

2010-06-24T21:32:00.008-05:00

We lost our camera (there are several theories as to where it may have gone) right after our trip to California. After much deliberation (Dan's, not mine) on which new camera to buy we are the proud new owners of a Casio. None of this matters, but serves as my excuse for the lack of posts lately and the gap in pictures like our trip to CA, visits from my mom and sister, Bob, and a second visit from my cousin Sarah (I'm thinking of looking into high schools in NOVA for her to attend so that I can steal her.)

Since my last post Isaac is rolling over, sitting up, playing with toys, wrestling his sister, blowing bubbles, babbling, and eating solids. I haven't written down the dates any of these things first happened but we are glad he is doing them. You will see from the pics he has remained my smiley boy.

Cora is enjoying being 3. She is coming out of her shell after a bout of silence and 'regression' post new brother. She just finished her first round of swim lessons and although she can't yet swim she sure like the lessons and her teacher, Yohanis. She stays busy with friends, music class, picnics, trips to DC, and just good old fashion fun. Remind me again how I got so lucky to have this job??

My Girl

2010-05-13T21:57:00.007-05:00

Cora turns 3 on Sunday.
More often I realize how much and fast she is growing. She is truly in the 'do-it-myself' stage and so often she really can. I am so proud of the girl she is becoming but sad about saying goodbye to the baby she was. She is so brave, curious, and clever. I love her curls, her smile, her wild streak, and when she sings. I love watching her play with other kids and helping her to tame her bossy side (even though I know she got it from me).
She is taking on her newest role as big sister with incredible love and energy. At first, I thought the attention she showed Isaac was more of an attempt to get attention for herself but I've realized lately how much she really loves him. He is the first person she asks about when she wakes up and is constantly trying to care for him or make him laugh (which she is really good at).
Its been a nostalgic week for me, her are some pictures if you'd like to come along.

So, of course I promised my self not to get behind on Isaac's posts and here we are, only 2 months in and I'm posting these on his 3 month birthday. Such is life with two...

Isaac is a fabulous boy. Huge open mouth smiles, often a little crooked grin follows, coos and giggles, and much more interested in the world around him...the fun begins! Big sister is much more impressed now that she gets some interest from him as well. He is one of her biggest fans and Dan is already predicting him being a co-conspirator against the parental unit.

He is a great sleeper, great eater, and all-round sweetie. Can you tell mommy has fallen in love again?

Here are the stats from his 2-month appointment:
Height: 21.5 inches
Weight: 10 lbs, 14 ozs

Sarah's Visit

2010-02-27T12:00:00.004-05:00

My dear cousin Sarah came to visit for a week to meet Isaac. We had the best time showing her DC for the first time and taking advantage of the snow on the ground for some sledding. Mom came up to help with the sightseeing (her specialty). At 13, Sarah has become a beautiful and talented young woman...no longer the little girl I remember. I feel so greatfull for the time she spent here. I got to know her better and she was a huge help with the kids. I'm ready for her to come back!!

Isaac is 1 month old!

It was a wonderful first week home with Isaac, in part to the huge help provided by Aunt Anna, Grandma, and Grandpa. Cora, Dan, and I were really able to enjoy our newest addition. He is an incredibly sweet baby and seems to be adjusting to life well.

Welcome Isaac William McCabe!

2010-01-10T10:14:00.003-05:00

Hi friends and family. We are proud to have welcomed Isaac William McCabe to the world at 1:51am on January 8th. Mom, Dad, Cora, and baby Isaac are now home and doing well. We'll do our best to share photos in between moments of sleep. Cora loves her little brother and rushes to his aid at any sign of discontent. We'll have plenty of stories to share. We love you all.

Dan, Molly, Cora, and Isaac.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

2010-01-02T21:16:00.002-05:00

Thank you Santa for the much anticipated helmet. Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for the coordinating scooter. Lots of fun had by all...now we're waiting for my baby brother to arrive.
~ Cora

We had a great Christmas kicked off by 20 inches of snow and the arrival of Grandma for some fun walks and sledding trips. Grandpa arrived by auto train on Christmas Eve. We attended a lovely Christmas Eve service at church appropriate for adults and kids. Cora loved playing the bells during every hymn. Her favorite is Silent Night and asks to have it sung every night now.

Cora had a big time opening gifts on Christmas morning. Santa, family, and friends took great care of her (and her mom and dad).

Hard to believe 2010 is here. Lots in store! Wishing everyone a wonderful year ahead!! Much Love, Dan, Molly, & Cora

more fun in the snow

2009-12-20T19:36:00.003-05:00

Today was our first day sledding. At first Dan improvised by sliding down the hill on his back. Cora quickly picked up the trick herself and self-titled it: 'Boom-ba'. We borrowed a sled from our neighbor but Cora's favorite continued to be boom-ba.

Update & Pics

2009-10-05T21:48:00.003-05:00

We're welcoming the great fall weather here in VA. I love this time of year! We've been telling Cora that baby brother is coming in the winter. The cooler weather reminds me often that baby time is creeping closer! I'm feeling great and, as you will see by this weekend's picture at Ben's Chili Bowl, getting big. Strange to be like a pumpkin at Halloween.

Cora is busy this fall with music, playgroups, a bible study, and a one morning a week drop off program "school". She is a really active two year old and is running if she's not sleeping. Her favorite things to do at home are taking her 'guys' on walks in her baby stroller, visiting Jameson's house, helping me water the plants, picking cherry tomatoes, throwing rocks into the stream by our house, and going to the park with neighborhood friends. Inside she likes puzzles, reading, and watching 'shows' (Dora the Explorer or Olivia) she loves to pretend and Dan and I often have to be Benny or Isa, characters from Dora. She likes to cook super hero food for Dan and come up with 'plans'.

Dan and I are slowly learning the art of dealing with the 'twos'. Its a constant compromise (battle) but full of laughs and joy. We're looking forward to welcoming our little guy soon but also cherishing our time with our girl before she becomes a big sister.

Wishing you a fun fall ahead! Molly

Pureto Rico-a week in paradise

2009-06-11T21:03:00.003-05:00

We had the incredible opportunity to join Bob & Jen in Puerto Rico to celebrate Bob's inauguration at Quincy University. We also celebrated our 7th anniversary and Bob's birthday while there. We had a fabulous time and learned that Cora takes after her mom in her love of the ocean.

Will's Christening

2009-06-11T20:58:00.002-05:00

We had a great weekend celebrating the Christening of William Earnest Foster and became Godparents in the process! What an honor to take this roll for such a sweet little boy. During the weekend Cora and Maeve proved that they truly are 2 peas in a pod. Kind of like when I met Meg while in Winston-Salem, Cora knows a good thing when she sees it!

Cora is 2!
