Home again

We just returned from a trip where we went through five states to visit six grandparents and three great-grandparents. Wow.

Here's Noah and Great Grandma playing on the floor.


Great grandma is impressively agile, no?

He also got to spend some quality time with Grammy, reading books and playing with blocks.



And we took Noah to check out the creek, one of my favorite places in the world. We think he liked it, even though the water was a little cold.


He was pretty fascinated by the moving water.


We took him by the falls also, but he was in the back carrier so he fell asleep (as usual).

Overall, he was really a trouper. He was great in the car and slept well at all the different houses. He didn't sleep as much in the car on the way home as we expected... he was too busy pulling down the sun shade.


Stinker.

Budding Pianist

Noah took a turn at Grandma's piano today.



We think he was great.

Another feat of strength

The last few days of last week Noah's teachers started telling me how Noah was working on holding his own bottle. Today Saba was babysitting and we got home just in time to see it for ourselves!




He's so big!!

Cousins

Noah loves his cousins


Everything they do is fascinating


Chad finds them fun as well


We had a great visit with lots of silliness, and arrived at Saba and Nana's house at banana time.

Grauation Party

We had a lovely te at Shane's graduation party. Congratulations Shane! Here is the graduate himself, about to get dunked.


What - you didn't have a dunk tank at you graduation party? Noah also took a turn on the dunk tank (for photographic purposes only).


Noah showed Mima how well he can sit up now.



And we tried out the hat in anticipation of his graduation. In 2027.
