My little sleeping man

Aug 6 2010

Noah is working on cutting his first top molars and has been taking lots of good naps. I walked in his room several times, with out him waking up. He usually sleeps only 2 hours in the afternoons, but today he slept for 3 1/2.

Paul, Kari, Micah, and Jordan visit

Sweet sister

Little Lady Jordan


The boys

Aug, 4 2010

We had sweet friend come over for lunch today. They just returned stateside and we loved welcoming them. I especially loved the hugs and meeting new little Jordan. She is just the best baby and I have to admit it made me want another little one.

We had great talks catching up, and encouraging one another to the next steps in life. We are blessed to have these iron sharpening friends. I can not believe how they have changed and where the Lord is leading.

Noah especially learned to play well with Micah. They were all boys, pushing the car up and down the hallway, throwing blocks, wanting to do what ever the other one was doing. It is good to see what I have to look forward to with Noah in a year. It is crazy to think that Micah was there at 1 when Noah was born; visiting us in the hospital.

Missing Madison

Aug 2 2010


We got home to an empty house. No dogs. Well of course not we can have any in the apt. But looked all over for those dogs. I think that he is really missing Madison.
He looks for her when he is sitting in the chair eating meals. I guess to give her his leftovers, he looks for every time the doors opens like she is going to come waltzing in, he looks for when Mommy says "Madison, where is Madison." It is so sad. They formed quite a bond. We miss you Madison our Doggy babysitter.

Our 90 to nothing Saturday

Momma, Daddy and Baby


Noah is wondering "What is going on."




We went to meet Will Beasley finally. Being in Wake Forest and away when all these babies are born makes me sad. I am however very blesses to come and visit. Will is absolutely gorgeous and such a good baby. And we like J and Sarah too.



We also got to see Heather. She is 20ish weeks pregnant with Thomas Brodie. And anxiously waiting till she gets to meet her little guy.


Then on to Pops and Gigi's house. We had a fun time seeing Grandma Betty, swimming, exploring the yard, and riding the elephant again. I have never seen Noah with so much energy. He is making the most of his time. He goes wild until he drops for night night.

July 30 2010

We got to spend some time with Mimi, Dae Dae, and Mae Mae. Noah actually starting saying Mimi tonight. He got a new train, and got to see all the dogs. We went to eat Mexican, we were stuffed.

The Blues'

July 29 2010


While in town we were able to see lots of friends. Beginning with Stephanie and Kenzie. It was good to catch up and for Noah to see another kid. He certainly loved her toys.

Sad Morning

July 29 2010

We went to meet a friend and some playmates at the park but never got to meet them. We were able to swing a little while (note this is the last pic before this little face is hurt) and while we are sitting eating bluberries, Noah reaches to say hey to a lady and falls right head first into the concrete. His baseball size knot on his head and scrapes all down his face with his mouth bleeding sent us straight back to Dr. Rey's office. We just went for our well visit on Monday.

I cried as much as Noah did. My heart hurt for him. Everything checked out and we will watch him for the next 6 hours but this is not my favorite part of having a boy.

We soon went to see Mimi and Aunt Ali. Mimi assured me that these things happen and that I wasn't a bad mother. I just wish I could go back and keep my eyes on him at that moment. It only takes a split second.

Madison loves Cheerios

July 28 2010

Just a glimpse of our day. Noah got up at 4:40a.m. and decided it was time to get up. So we did and then at 7:30 a.m. he was ready for a nap.

We were trying to find things to do since we played with all his toys early that morning and he was not interested. So I put a video in and got him some juice and cheerios. I look over later and this is what I find.



His favorite word right now is WHOA!!!!! So this is the response to everything. He must think that WHOA is the dogs name or something.

I am needing some help with discipline, today like yesterday it rained and Noah could not understand why he could not play in the rain like yesterday??? He pitched one big fit.

We both miss Daddy so much and are ready for Friday to come so we can see him. Hurry up and fly here already.

OH BTW

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY BABU AND GRANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

July 27 2010

Only in Mississippi is there a season of thunderstorms everyday around the same time. 2ish. I think it has to do with the intense humidity. But nevertheless, we were headed outside after our 2 1/2 hour nap while the wind was blowing and it was starting to cool off. It was about to rain, but we did not make it out in time. So I just let Noah play in the rain instead.

We had lots of fun at Pops house. He has lots of stairs, and someone else besides Mom always helps me climb them. The brick ones are kinda scary but the carpeted ones are way fun. I really liked riding the elephant too.
