This is what he does when brother is still sleeping...

January

And tell me this...where did January go? For us it flew on by...a visit from my parent's, Luke's first birthday, a 50th Wedding Anniversary kept us on our toes! Here are some of the picture's from the month...

My parent's came to visit! Here they are with the kid's celebrating a late Christmas together.
Noah was dressed up for the party! In true Noah fashion, he is all dressed up, on the back of a trailer, checking out the construction site next door.
Oh and January also held Luke's first haircut! That is my niece in law cutting his hair, she is super sweet to Luke (and is a hairdresser) and graciously offered to cut it for us. So, how many people does it take to cut a baby's hair??
My parent's at the party. My mom did a fabulous job of organizing and arranging the flowers. And my Dad was gracious enough to take Noah from us!
Here are Kelly's parents cutting into their cake! They reenacted the whole thing, minus the smashing of the cake in each other's face, but they fed each other and kissed. For a long, long time. Yep they still have it after 50 years.

A new word

Noah has a new word! Actually Noah has a lot of new words but this one is something to write about. He said, APPLE! Now I know what you are thinking, apple, why so excited about apple?

The reason is this. Noah has been working with Cindy, his speechie (therapist, thanks Ellisha for that shorter version), and has been practicing a few basics words. Bee, Boo, Bow, Pea, Tea and so on... Putting those simple basic words together makes a mirage of larger words; for example apple is a-bow. And noodles is, new-dough. And honey is h-knee. So today after we were introduced to these new words I took an apple from the fruit basket placed it in front of Noah and asked him, what is this?

"Apple".

What a boy.

The face only a Mom could love.

Oh look at that face. Seriously the only to clean up that cute boy was a bath!

Time for a Change

Well my long standing relationship with iweb is over. I think it finally ended when I realized that in the time I have had that blog I had it crash fully once (and almost lost everything), had an on again and off again comment problem, and then finally another crash. Those crashes mean me spending hours pulling the info off the internet, putting it into a word file and then putting it back into iweb. Yuck. No thank you.

Not to say that iweb is all bad. But you all probably don't want to hear about my blogging woes.

So onto our family! Onto the fun adventures we have been having.

And please leave me a comment. I was missing those responses!
