Baby New Year

So Noah was unable to stay awake to ring in the new year so he had to wait till the next morning. I heard him ask his mother what a year was....he'll find out soon enough. He's 7 months today! Noah's hoping this year goes as good as the last....even though he doesn't remember all of it.

Santa visits Noah's house

Santa came to Noah's house and left lots of great goodies. Noah enjoyed unwrapping his gifts (especially the tissue paper).

Sittin' With Santa

Noah went to see Santa at Georgia Square Mall on Friday, December 19th. While we waited in line to see Santa Noah was reviewing with me all the things he wanted to talk to Santa about. When it was finally Noah's turn and he was sitting on Santa's lap he totally froze! He was unable to speak a word...only look at him in awe. Here's a picture that captures the moment...precious!

Noah visits Santa Paws

Noah made a special trip to see Santa Paws and tell him what he wanted for Christmas. Sean and I couldn’t hear all of the discussion but we did hear him ask for 2 front teeth, any vegetables other than squash, an endless bottle of milk, and lots of plastic toys to chew and spit up on. He also told him that overall he’d been nice other than the naughty times he’d woke his parents up at 3am just to see their smiling faces!

Noah’s 6 month check-up!

Noah turned 6 months old on December 2, 2008. We took him to see Dr. Sprayberry for a check-up and to get his 6 month shots. Our little guy is growing so quickly! He is now 16lbs 2oz and 29in long. He’s in the 25th percentile for weight and 90th percentile for height…long and lean like his daddy! A small ear infection kept us from getting shots at this visit but we will return again in a week to finish the job.

Finding the Turkey

Where's the turkey? Thanksgiving is tomorrow so we had to go hunting a turkey. We found this one down the road at Washington Farms. But I'm not sure which one is the real turkey. :)

St Mary's Fall Festival

St. Mary's Hospital held a fall festival for all babies born this year at the hospital. Missy took pumpkin Noah to hang out with the lions, lobsters, peapods, and other creatures. Noah made lots of new friends! They paraded all the kids through the birthing center and Noah got to see his delivery team.....including Dr. Jarrett. Overall it was a good day for them.

4 month checkup

Noah went for his 4 month checkup and everything was good. He still doesn't like the shots. (but he sleeps really good the night after the shots). He's in the 75th percentile for height and 25th for weight.

A Pumpkin in the Patch

We went to pick out our first family pumpkin today and Noah dressed the part. He was delighted to see all the pumpkins and tried to pick out one his size. (Beware of the next pumpkin you get....it may have been drooled on by our little one.)

Fall is here!

So fall is here and Missy and Noah went to the fall festival with our friends Katie and little Eddie. (Big Ed and I stayed back to work on his deck.) Noah was decked out in his Pumpkin costume and had a great time at the festival with his mommy. As you can see he was one pooped pumpkin by the end of the day.
