My beautiful genius boy

Oh my goodness, can I tell you how hard of a time I'm having picking pictures to post? This is what happens when I don't get to blog for a few days! And I've actually saved a few for tomorrow....

Josh got a surprise day off on Thursday, but then unfortunately got called in Saturday morning, so our 2 day weekend turned into a 3 day weekend and then back into a 2 day, but we still had lots of fun just hanging out and not doing much - unfortunately we didn't get to finish the pergola like we had planned. My baby boy walked all the way from the coffee table to the kitchen table all by himself today!! I keep trying to get him to walk more often and he doesn't want to - of course he does it when I don't prompt him at all! He even did it while clutching his blanky, which normally hinders his walking - he's such a little genius! Let's see what pictures I have here....


Oh yes, Noah's new obsession is hair in a ponytail. He gets absolutely out of control if I have my hair up and then sit on the floor where he can reach it. He grabs ahold of it and then does his best at trying to jump up and down - of course without his feet ever leaving the floor. I'm trying to teach him the difference between pulling it and just holding it!


We all had fun going to Grandma and Grandpa's house for dinner Friday night. Oma came into town and Noah was so sweet to her and made us all jealous. He actually sat in her arms for a good half hour just listening to her sing songs in German. You know he never lets us do that!! H also loves crawling all over their yard - just not on that darn grass, and he refuses to put his knees down on the concrete or stones - so he does this crazy crab walk - at first it was scary cause we thought he was gonna face plant into the sidewalk, but once we saw he knew what he was doing it was too funny! He also loves to pull the bark off of the river birch.

I will write tomorrow about how the whole cow's milk thing is going!

Noah - Your Dad began walking at the same age you are! He was at his Granny's house because I worked and she kept you. He was playing with his Grandpa and he said, Josh come and see Pop and away your Dad went! Your Dad loved is Grandpa. Granny called me at work crying telling me all about it. I was so sad that I missed your first step. That weekend, you were standing by the coffee table and you saw me in the dinning room and you just walked right over to me! I was so excited and I too cried. Love Granny!

Oops, I meant that your Great Granny kept your Dad while I worked.
