Another Month Older, and Cuter Too

Yes that is right, Noah hit 6 Months and is cuter than ever. Here are his most recent stats: Weight: 22lbs 11oz Height: 28 inches

I can't believe how quickly he has grown, and how much he is learning. Here are a few of Noah's favorite things right now....

Eating Gerber Puffs, Sweet Potato please.

Chewing on his toes, usually while sitting up

Typing on the Keyboard

Playing Peek-A-Boo

Bath time

Talking.

Making Youtube videos for his Daddy.
Being Tickled.
And many other's. We even discovered a week or more ago that he is cutting his two front bottom teeth. One has already popped through and the other is right behind it. As you can imagine he has been a little crabbier than usual...but still doing so well.

I decided that I wanted to snap some shots of Noah in honor of his 6 month birthday. We had a lot of fun taking these pics, but couldn't get Noah to smile at first. He was distracted by everything around him. So we did our best, it was either that, or he was ignoring me. Could be a combination of both!!








Happy 6 months to my baby boy. I love him so much.

Trip to Utah

It has been a while since I have updated the blog...and lots has been going on around here. Noah hit the 6 month mark (which I will share more about in another post), Andy hit his 3 month mark, we took a short (but sweet) trip down to Utah to see family and friends and I have been training for a 5k. We are keeping ourselves busy, that's for sure. I have also been a mod podging fool, and will podge about anything I can get my hands on!

But most importantly, our trip to Utah. Not only did I get to get my frozen yogurt fix, we were also able to meet up with our good friend Bob who flew in from Korea for his sister's wedding. We had such a great time and of course Noah got to spend a little QT with his cousin (and best buddies) Gus. I only wish we lived closer to Greg and Allice so that we could get together more often!! Note that Gus will be ONE on September 17th and Noah will hit 7 months on September 7th. Noah already outweighs his cousin by a good 4+ pounds! Atta boy! Here are some pics to document our travels....

As we were reminiscing over the weekend with Greg and Allice, Bobbo and Cammie...Greg reminded me of a funny 'conversation' that took place before I was even pregnant with Noah. While visiting Vegas (I believe that was the time), Allice, being pregnant with Gus, jokingly commented that they would keep having kids until they had at least one red head. Since Allice has red hair, and so do several of her siblings, we fully expected (and still do) several of their children to have the same. Andy has often teased me about having 10 kids, and thinking he would be especially funny says to me, "can we make that same arrangement?" Knowing full well that I don't have any redheads in my family, nor does he (at least not in a dominant form). Needless to say I told him NO, never thinking that one of our kids would sport the red locks. Andy always said that he hoped Gus would be a cute chubby red head...and when I look at our little Noah I have to laugh...I guess you get what you ask for!!



I have so many pictures that I will have to put them in a slide show or something. We really did have so much fun, and even took the liberty of stopping by Hill Air force Base and shopping at the commissary. I will be honest...I miss the commissary!!

We had such a fun time in with Bob, Greg and Allice, and Cammie in Utah. Thankfully Whitney was kind enough to drive down with me and help me with Noah. You just don't realize how much help you need until your right hand man is half way across the world :) I can't wait till we can have another reunion, next time I hope Andy can be there.
