He is on the move.....

Noah started to walk a day after christmas. He is so much fun and starting to talk alot! I will post a video of him walking. I try to get him to say "Bye" in the video but he wont, not even a wave. He has been saying Shoes and bye quite a bit lately

**I add 2 posts, this one and the one below so check them both out.**

Here are a few pictures I took today......

He loves to put me and Andy's shoes on, it is so funny! When he puts them onhe will say "Zoes" (AKA Shoes haha)

Noah's Bday

Yes I realize that I am really behind on this blog. I am a month late on posting about Noah's Bday. It was such a fun day, Noah had no idea what was going on but it was fun for Andy and I. We had a family party and my mom was so nice to let us use her house. Andy and I are so lucky to have such wonderful families. The best part is our families all know each other and get along really well. Noah had lots of help from all the cousins. I can't wait until he can really start playing with all of them. Here are some pictures of that night. Noah was a very spoiled boy this month with his birthday then Christmas. When I took Noah to the doctor for his 1 year old check up. His stats were 20.7lbs (15th% I promise I do feed him) 38inches(78%) I can't remember the measurement for his head but it was in the 90% (I know he has a big head :0) He had 4 shots and Grandma Jan was there to help us. (He just loves her. We are so lucky to have great family) He actually did a lot better with the shots then I thought he would do.

Me and the Birthday boy!

Family Pics

We finally had our family pictures done. I have been putting this off for so long and decided that we just need to do it. Noah will be 1 on the 19th of this month. He is getting so big and so much fun!!! Also our 3 year anniversary is coming up so we thought that now would be a good time to get them done. I hope you all enjoy!

Noah's Friend Bday Party

Noah turns 1 in December but all of our friends had baby's around the same time. So Annie our sweet friend coordinated a cute little party for all of them. There were 4 babies, a baby born in September, October, November and Noah in December. Noah was the ONLY boy there. What a little PIMP I must say! ;) We had soup in soup bowls and then let the kids dig into their cakes. Noah was all about digging in. He is a TRUE boy. It was really fun to watch the little girls not wanting to get dirty and Noah just dug right in! The pictures will explain all of it. It was so fun to get together and see all the kids play together. Noah was sitting next to Ellie (JD and Annie's cute litte girl) He kept feeding her his cake then she would feed him. It was really cute, then they would stuff it down each others diapers. We all were laughing so hard. Noah and Ellie were so messy they got to have a bath together. (Don't worry we did have a talk with Noah about no baths with girls until he is married. :) lol) We are excited to see him dig into his bday cake for his family party. I will get a video then...... CANT WAIT!! We are just loving Noah! He is so much fun. On Sunday he took 5 steps by himself, he could have gone further but he got scared but he CRAWLS EVERYWHERE!!!!! Some of Noah's things he is doing now........ Points to the Noses on all his stuff animals when you ask him where their noses are, pretends to give kisses then bites with his teeth, has 5 teeth ( 2 front teeth and 3 bottom) loves the song "Itsy bitsy spider" and patty cake, loves yogurt and vanilla wafers, LOVES his dad but a total mama's boy some days, plays with Grandma Ruthie every Wednesday, thinks it is funny when we put his shoes on?!?!? I could go on and on about him. I just love him and I am so grateful for my little family we have been blessed with.

Noah before the party, he wanted the camera.

Sick Day :(

It all started tuesday morning me and Noah were walking in the house and a Bee or something ( who knows what it was) was stuck between Noah's shirt and his skin. So of course he got stung and it was right on his neck. I was MAYBE freaking out a little. So I put a cold rag on his neck and he was not liking that. So I gave him some benedryl. He was so sleepy the rest of the day. I left for work and Andy had Noah for the night. He fell asleep as I was leaving to work (7:30 PM) and woke up at midnight and was awake until 2. This is so out of character for him. Andy thought it was just because he had bendryl and his sleep schedule was messed up. Well I got home wednesday morning at 7. Of course the little stink was awake.. :) so I got Noah a bottle Andy fed him and I walked out of the room. When I came back to our room Noah had barfed EVERYWHERE!!!! THe whole 7 ounces he ate was on OUR BED!!! I of course was already thinking he is sick. Andy said I think he just coughed and because he ate it so quick it just came back up..(Noah has done this before just not the whole bottle!) So we stripped our whole bed I changed Noah and we put him in bed with us. He was wired the kid was climbing all over us. He was climbing on me then put his head right by mine and I was talking to him and then it happened....he yacked all over me! Andy was laughing hysterically I was laughing and wanting to cry because the poor kid was throwing up. So Andy got Noah in the bath and I showered. We then decided that it was a good idea for Andy to stay home from work so I could sleep because I had just worked a 12 hour shift. So Andy played Mr. Mom :) Noah threw up many more times...we did a total of 7 loads of laundry. By 2PM Noah was keeping down pedialyte. so we gave him some bananas a few hours later with more pedialyte. Wow what a day, that was the first time he has ever been sick and I am sure it wont be the last. Luckily his 9 month appointment was the next day. Dr. Brown is awesome and always makes me feel at ease that everything will be okay. Noah is tons better and back to his BUSY HAPPY self!

At his 9 month appointment he was 19 lbs. 7 ounces. and 29 1/4 inches....he is a tall skinny little thing! I just love this little boy so much! Andy said the other day that he was ready to have another one. ........ dont worry I am not ready yet! :) I love the little boy but I want some time with him first. I am so lucky to have the family I do!

P.S. Andy.... I freakin love your guts! You are so good to me! Thanks for being such an awesome Dad and being so involved with our little man! I could not be happier!

He Dances!!!

The past couple of days Noah has been dancing to music when he hears it. It is so stinkin cute!

Also Andy and I were able to have a date night on saturday. Andy planned it all and even asked my cute little sister to watch Noah for us. It was such a fun night and I am so grateful for family!! I worked friday night so I slept until 12:00 then got up and took Noah to get a hair cut, then I got myself a much need pamper from Jolayne my BFF! Thanks Jolayne I love you girl! It was such a good day! Thanks guys!! :)
