Zoo and sickness

Bowen is our friends 6 year old and he was a great older brother for the day! He helped push the stroller and point out animals to Noah. We had a great day.

It seemed Noah finally payed more attention to the animals than to the people:)

His version of a self portrait!

Noah and his best friend, Mommy:)

Obviously he found something pretty funny!

Lai and Bowen

Instead of "Where's Waldo", how about a game of "Where's Noah"?:)

Daddy and Noah out playing in the yard.

The bandana makes him look like a cancer patient! But he actually kept it on his head and didn't automatically reach to pull it off!

Bathtime with Noah.

We've had an interesting 24 hours here. Noah went through his first bout of real sickness. He was throwing up every 20 minutes for about 3 1/2 hours! You can officially call us parents now! YUCK! And it seemed that Noah always threw up when Aaron was holding him, so Aaron went through as many outfits as Noah! I think its finally passed and we're trying to play catch up on rest and fluids. We have a very busy weekend ahead of us, so hopefully, neither Aaron nor I get it!

A Cowboys tale

Hi! I'm so glad you stopped by so I could tell you my tale...

Its actually a real crowd pleaser, I found it hilarious! (in the end):)

I was out one day just working in the corral with the horses, when all of a sudden....

What's that, the puppy-calf got out? Hmm...whats the best way to handle a loose puppy-calf?

GOT 'EM!!!!!!

Shoot, now wheres my rope?

Hold on ladies and gentlemen...this could get messy.

The only way to handle the situation is to take out my frustration on my hat. It'd be no good to take it out on the pup.

Better keep the rest from escaping too!

Whew! All in a days work..I think I'll drive into town and have me a little fun.

Better grab some candy for the road. Adios, Amigos!!

Odds and Ends of the week

Mommy and Noah went to pick blueberries with our friend/neighbor Laurie.

He has a new favorite face to make. He scrunches up his nose and breathes in and out through his nose really loud:) very cute.

I walked in to get Noah up from his nap this week to see this.

Can you see the 2 little chompers down there?

We found Noah actually sleeping like this. He moves quite a bit and had propped himself on his blanket:)

Mommy and Noah cuddle time. (man do I have a lot of freckles.)

Whatever he was doing, Noah sure was proud of himself:)

He loves this book...now if we could only teach him to READ the book and not eat it.

He loves to be just like daddy. This is daddys jacket for golf...but I don't know if Noah will give it back!

August has come...

Chief No Clothes wanted to make sure everyone knew that it was officially August!!

This is my friend, Josiah. We like to play together.

See, check this out...I can almost crawl...atleast Mommy says I look like I'm about to.

I feel so tall when I'm up here...

Make sure you come in nice and close Mommy, I want to make sure they see me.

It is just amazing to me that the time is flying right by. We are keeping busy every day with either play dates or errands. I finally had a little time to sit down and just finished scrapbooking our honeymoon! 4 YEARS LATER:) Oh, well...I guess better late than never. And for those of you who know me, I like to keep my house clean. It was a little hard, but I have left everything out for scrapbooking and it has made it a lot easier. I put it all away once I finished the last scrapbook and I'm about to pull it back out to start on Noah's scrapbook...below is the picture of my mess...and I know...it really isn't that bad, but it was enough for me:):):)

In the last couple of weekends, we have gone to the lake and a pool party. Of course, we forgot our camera for both events, but luckily, we have friends who were kind enough to take pics for us. Here is some of our fun below. "Hanging out" with Mommy on the boat.
