"Beach Bum"

Has it really been nearly a month since the last post? Who is in charge of this anyway??? They need to do a better job of posting on a more regular basis.

We've always kept Noah's hair pretty short (once he had his first cut anyway). But, I've been curious about whether or not it would be curly again if it were a little longer... It's starting to curl up above his ears; it's very cute. AND, it's makes for some great fun in the bathtub!

Noah was quite the "beach" bum for about a week. Then came the monsoons and then the excessive heat. Noah and I went to the pool with his Auntie Di and Madi. (Noah was really thirsty.)

The pool we go to has a lazy river. Noah loves it. He just sits and watches as we go around. I was a little shocked. The boy never sits still unless he's sleeping. They have these double inner tubes with a bottom on one side so Noah can sit "by himself."

MiMi and Poppy were here and took Noah to the pool also. Here's Noah's crazy hair after they got home.

Noah also got his very own pool for the backyard. He won't get in it. But he likes to stand outside of it and play. (He's wearing his super cute cloth swim diaper.)


Noah recently had Almond Butter for the first time. He really likes it, but he makes a very big mess with it!!!

Noah just loves to be outside. A few weeks ago, he was carrying around a bucket and tripped and half of his pinkie fingernail came off. It was very sad. His pinkie is too small for a band aide. I tried to get one on him to keep the dirt out... It just didn't work. Anyway, all is growing in nicely. Here he is putting gas in his car, just before the incident.


As best we can tell, Noah is very advanced in the area of speech. According to babycenter.com, he should be able to say 7 words. I couldn't tell you how many he can say, but it's probably 50-60. I gated Noah in his room the other day while I was doing a little cleaning. I sneezed and from his room came a little voice that said "bless you." It was very cute!!

Noah was really sleepy one day this week, so I was trying lots of things to keep him entertained and happy. I put my jacket on him. It was pretty funny. I couldn't get him to hold still for a picture; he kept charging me. So you'll have to use your imagination a little bit. He'd want it off and then on and then off and then on... I finally put it away.
