Our week in Baltimore...

Noah and I returned from our big adventure to Baltimore last Friday. Noah was an angel during the flights; I was so impressed! I was especially impressed because 2 days before we left he learned the word "NO." Noah has this crazy idea that when he says the word it should carry the same effect as when I say it to him. Yea...um...not so much. We're working through his new way of expressing himself. Silly me, I thought the "___ two's" (not using the word that goes in the blank) was when he threw a few minor tantrums...I guess I was wrong. Enough about our new life. I know that you just want to see the pictures from the trip. I'm sorry that I don't have any from the actual plane...I was a little preoccupied.

Noah's ready to go. He has his monkey "backpack" and his headphones.


Noah spent a lot of time outside. He loved the sandbox, the water mat and the pool. It was pretty hard to get him to go inside. (Remember his new form of expression...)


Noah also loved playing inside. We thought that it was pretty funny that even though he had tons of toys to choose from, he picked TP stacking to pass the time.


We went to the Science Museum on the harbor one day. It was great! It had a really neat children's area that Noah thoroughly enjoyed. As you see in the first picture they have a pretend submarine that you can push the buttons and things light up...pretty cool. In the 2nd picture Uncle Stephen is showing Noah the dinosaurs. In the 3rd picture...we thought we should get a picture of all of us before we forgot.


Everyday Noah got to take a walk through the neighborhood. He loved to see the big fish in the "lakes." Nana and "Ampa"/Papa are much nicer than I am and let him get out of the stroller to feel the water and look for rocks. :-)


Noah loved helping Papa fix the lawnmower.

The last 2 months in pictures...

It has definitely been a while since I have posted anything. The slide show should get you pretty much caught up. Noah has developed quite a personality lately. He definitely knows what he wants, but he is getting to be lots of fun. He likes to say "Big Boy" or "Big Dude" a lot; usually these phrases come when he is about to do something that only big boys should do...pretty funny. As you can tell by the pictures, he loves going to the park and herding the ducks. We have been hanging out at the neighborhood pool whenever Noah is well. Also, Noah is still enjoying Gymboree classes. In other words we have been keeping pretty busy. Enjoy the slide show! Hopefully future postings will be less than 2 months apart.

New Posts coming soon!!!

Okay, I know I've been the worst blogger ever! Well, maybe not ever, but pretty close. There has been a lot going on so I'm trying to get all the new pictures organized so that I can share with you guys. Hopefully by the end of the week, I will get my act together and update you on the last 2 months. Check back soon for new pictures of my precious little man. You're not going to believe how much he has grown. :-)
