Sitting

Look what Noah can do!!


When we sit him up he can stay there for several minutes. It is very impressive. He basically figured it out over the last two days - it is amazing how quickly he improves once he figures out how to do something.


We brought Noah's chair outside for dinner tonight so he could chat with us.


And his hair is really getting out of control. Maybe he should become a monk.

Mr. Tortuga

Noah loves Mr Tortuga.



Especailly when he is flying overhead.



Noah is also interested in the phone





Oooh I want it I want to grab it





ooh I've got it here comes the mouth...




Perhaps now is the appropriate time to instigate the " no playing with mommy's phone" rule...

Beer for teething

In one of our prouder parenting moments thus far, we allowed Noah to play with a cold beer bottle. He was not to be deterred. Now that he can roll purposefully he really goes after stuff.


While not an ideal toy for babies, the bottle is nice and cold...


And probably feels good on his teeth.

Swing!

I forgot to mention - yesterday we also tried the swing. Noah seemed to like it. I think he realized the big kids were also swinging so that made him like it even more.

Birthday Party

What a fun day yesterday! We started out with a play date with the mirror.



And then we took Noah to the pool for the first time.


And then over to mima and oompa's house for Jenna and Joli's birthday party, where we encountered the coolest yard toy I've ever seen.


Noah loved playing in the balls with his cousins (before the water was turned on)





Basically, Noah likes doing anything with his cousins.



Happy father's day Oompa!

Not bouncing

My new phone lets me take and edit video, but I haven't yet figured out how to use the phone to post the video to the blog. In the meantime, enjoy the link.

Mima's house

We hit the road again today, making a pit stop in our favorite rest stop on the garden state parkway





Also, in Connecticut. Noah was not crazy about CT.



It is hard to see, but his pin says "greetings from connecticut.


Noah had a great time playing with his cousins




And was very happy to see his Mima again.
