crayons

Noah loves playing with his crayons! He doesnt really do much proper coloring, but loves putting the crayons in and out of their case...and coloring on himself (which you can see much better if you click to enlarge this photo). I wasn't aware that crayons could actually draw on skin (markers, yes, but crayons??). But clearly now I have learned.

Trying to put the crayon in his eyes (and ears, mouth, nose)

Angry that he isn't being allowed to poke the orange one through his right eye. One day he'll appreciate it.

A little disclaimer:) -- I think sometimes a website like this is the direct result of a mother (i.e. me) who puts off doing important work during baby nap times in favor of using the computer. I want you all to know that yes, I do realize that a lot of what gets posted here is quite self-indulgent and trivial if nothing else. In any case, it's purely for fun, so I hope it keeps you entertained and up to speed with everyone here. :)

We received this box in the mail. Any guesses as to what's inside?

It's our cell phone bill for one month. Yes, just ONE month!! Our monthly bills tend to be so extensive they are now regularly delivered to us in a BOX!

Michael and I always tease each other that Noah has inherited his gift for the gab from the other person-- but as this box demonstrates, clearly Michael and I both do a pretty good job of chatting away.

Miscellaneous

Anna and her Uncle Brad

2 1/2 months!

Cheeky!! That's the only adjective to sum him up most of the time.

Nanna & Anna

This is the studio where I do Pilates every week. It's so peaceful and beautiful to overlook the city.

Noah being Noah. This was one of his quirky moments when he decided to wear Anna's hat and pretend to have a chitty-chat to grandma on his phone.

Brother & Sister

Then finally, as usual...it all ends in tears!

Noah loves having ALL of his stuffed animals in his crib. This is his new sleeping routine. They must all be put in with him and he eventually throws them out one-by-one and sometime later eventually goes to sleep.
