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.
