Cousin Liam Comes to Visit

April has been a fun filled month. Aunt Joanie, Aunt Kate and Cousin Liam arrived just in time to celebrate mommies birthday. Noah took his New England family to the Georgia Aquarium. Noah also spent lots of time with cousin Liam playing & laughing. Noah loved hanging with his big cousin. When we asked Liam his favorite part of the Aquarium he said "pushing Noah in his stroller". So sweet!

Easter Egg Hunt in the COLD!

One of Noah's favorite toys was the pinwheel he was given at a local church's Easter Egg Hunt. They also had a petting zoo where Noah and Daddy got up close and personal with a Llama.

EASTER 2007

This Easter we had record low temperatures here in Hotlanta. Rumor has it that this Easter was colder than Christmas. The temperature didn't keep Noah from crawling around at some Easter Egg Hunts!! Noah continues to master his crawling and will walk when holding your hand or one of his push toys, but falls to his cushiony bottom when left to walk on his own. Some other exciting changes are in Noah's beautiful smile. He has cut 4 of his top teeth all in the last few weeks, having these new additions hasn't seemed to bother him at bit!

On Spring Break with Cousin David

Spring Break with the Boys!

Today we were visited by 5 college Spring Breakers on their way to New Orleans than Miami from New York. Cousin David and his college buddies took a break from their road trip for some breakfast and southern hospitality. Noah hung-out with the guys giving high 5's and playing some basketball. Noah plans to join them in about 18 years or so. What fun!

Getting the Giggles!

Each day bring us new joys as well as new challenges. Noah has learned to communicate and ask for many things. He signs more & please most of the time, but when what he is asking for isn't getting to him fast enough you can hear his frustration. We consistently have to remind to use his words (signs) to ask for what he wants and when he does say "more please" it is wonderful. It is amazing how consistency pays off although the journey sometimes seems overwhelming.

Some of the greatest moments come when we are all in Noah's playroom and for no reason other than he is a happy guy he gets the giggles. His laugh is contagious! He cracks himself up! It is hysterical!

Auntie Elana Comes to Visit

This week we were so grateful that Aunt Elana was able to come for a short visit. Today we took Aunt Elana to Noah's favorite playground. Just last week Noah loved crawling through all the tunnels at the playground, today he seemed most interested in the swings and the slides. After dropping Aunt Elana off at the airport, Noah took a much needed nap. Late this afternoon he got a "second wind" and joined his neighborhood buddies for a playdate in the sand. Noah usually shy's away from getting sandy, but today he was kicking around in it from head to toe. It is so interesting to see how his preferences change from day to day along with his awareness and understanding of his little world.
