A Day In The Life...

Noah has the life.  No cares, no responsibilities...two parents who adore him and a little sister who thinks he's the worlds funniest comedian.  He has been especially curious/adventurous/mischievous lately.  He loves to sing songs, play with his cars (surprise), pull out the DVDs-just to watch Mommy put them all back,  climb in the window sill, push Clare over and exclaim, 'Uh oh, Mommy!  Baby Clare fell down!'  He climbs on things, pulls ornaments off the tree and loves to quote Toy Story 2 (not sure if that's a good thing).  He is definitely hitting his stride, I love it...and you better believe we both sleep well at night after a full day together!  

Here is a picture journal of a day in the life of Noah...(or probably any 2, almost 3 year old, ha).

Noah loves to climb on the counter and play with the change in our 'key dish' - I guess he decided to use the Panini maker as some sort of cash register...

And naturally, one always gets hungry while counting all the money they have...why not grab some french bread from a near by bowl to gnaw on.

Here he is, climbing in the window sill...like he knows he shouldn't.  That's the fun of it I guess! 

One of Noah's favorite things to do is play schlootball (aka Football) with his daddy.  Here he is, all dressed and ready to go.  Yes, the basket doubles as a helmet.  Andy has even taught Noah how to take a hand off...which is also pretty adorable. 

If Noah doesn't decide to become a professional football player, he may just decide to become a singer.  I've tried to catch him on video several times but could only get this small little bit.  Here he is doing two of his favorite things, playing with cars and singing twinkle twinkle little star.  

And of course, there's nothing like watching a little Disney movie on the computer - headphones and all.

Lastly - Noah loves to make videos for his Uncle Mike.  Noah insisted on holding the the camera- and you can tell he loved every minute of it (don't mind the angle - it gives Noah's cheeks the chipmunk effect-ha).  



Even with the tough moments and the many tantrums, I am really enjoying this stage in Noah's life.  Through it all he still let's me call him Sweets (my silly nickname for him), still wants me to sing him songs at night, still wants to play games with me and loves to have me cheer him on.  Watching him grow up into a little boy has been one of the greatest joy's I've experienced so far as a mother.

I sure Love you Sweets.
