Happy First Birthday Noah!

Sunday, May 25th was a really special day for our family. At eleven o'clock, family and friends came to church with us for Noah's dedication service. Afterwards we had a BBQ at our house in our newly fenced yard to celebrate Noah's 1st Birthday (which was actually on Friday). It was a beautiful day. It was rainy all week long but on Sunday it was sunny and warm with a nice breeze. The party was a nice size with our family and friends. Among the gifts Noah received were a wagon full of mega blocks, a turtle sandbox, sand toys, bubble toys, bathtub toys an I bond and some money. Noah really loved his cake. He was not scared one bit and immediately stuck his hands in the icing. He was not so fond of the party hats or getting the icing cleaned off of him. Overall, it was a nice party. Happy Birthday little cutie! We love you very much.

Noah Saying, "Uh-Oh"

Video of Noah

Yeah! I finally figured out this video thing on blogger! I was having a hard time figuring it out. Here is a video of Noah in the jumper. He is 9 months old here and is such a happy little guy.

Noah Eating

Although Noah has been eating food for a few months now, I just now got some pictures of him. He was eating a teething biscuit and then some sweet potatoes. He loves to eat!

Noah's First Christmas

Noah had a great first Christmas. He got lots of teething toys, blocks, stackable cups, balls and rattles. Noah is also 7 months old now and so physically advanced! He has been pulling himself up and crawling for about a month now. Recently he has really added the whole "speed" factor. As soon as you set him on the floor, he "hits the ground running....or crawling anyway". It is really difficult to get anything done anymore because I have to keep chasing him around. He doesn't like to be confined either and will complain (it's not really crying but he makes really annoying sounds) until you give him what he wants. He is really starting to furniture "surf" now and will let go and stand for quite a while before falling on his butt. Days of the swing and excersaucer are over. He would rather chase Isaac around and try to use him as a jungle gym. Isaac doesn't really like this and will say, "Noma (how he says Noah)LET ME GO!" I have some really fun days ahead.....I just know it!

Merry Christmas

Noah's First Thanksgiving!
