These epitomize Noah. He really is such a happy boy. (Not when he's tired or sick or hungry-but overall.) He has a funny giggle that turns into a belly laugh these days. No teeth yet-but drooling on everthing he can get his hands on. One of his favorites right now is the white "cow" in the pictures that shakes and giggles and plays music.

This is one I made today. I originally took it in color but the picture came out too dark. I tried to lighten it, but it didn't look right either. When I changed it to sepia, I thought it looked very vintage, and I really liked it.

Noah sitting up by himself on Monday. Ryan is so proud!

Here are some pics of Georgia Claire and Noah. They love each other! =) We had a great night together.

This is our newest family "photo op" when we went out with some friends of ours, the McDonnolds. We were at one of my favorite restaurants, Patrizio's, in Plano. It has a beautiful patio with nice trees and twinkling lights (and no mosquitos-perfect!). Amber McDonnold and I used to teach together at Spears last year until she had her baby-Georgia Claire-last spring. She stays home with her cutie pie, so I was really glad to get to spend time with them.


Noah is such a good listener. He loves to listen to books and will sit for fairly long periods of time to "read" with Mommy.







I just love this picture. He looks so pensive! =) What a cutie!

This an older picture of when Mom and Dad came to visit right after Labor Day. Notice our new "Barley" color on our walls? Pottery Barn-Love it!
