Mooing is Funny!

Cruising and Laughing!

Noah Climbing Mt. Chance

So Many Firsts!

Noah continues to amaze us every day with the new things he is learning. He has two bottom teeth with two coming in up top. He learned how to clap this week and does it at random times and usually when you sing "if you're happy and you know it clap your hands." He has been pulling himself up to stand and sometimes letting go for a few weeks now, but has really been getting brave in the past week... pulling up on anything and everything including the dog! With the help of his Pop-Pop and a push car he walked back and forth across the living room at his grandparents on 4th of July. He started to say da-da on Father's Day (the best gift a boy could give his daddy!). We gave Noah his first haircut on July 2nd (which to me makes him look older already) and Noah got in the pool for the very first time on July 3rd. He was a natural kicking his legs right away!

Noah's California cousins came to visit for the first time (3 of the 5) on June 18th. We had lots of fun and went lots of places while they were in town. Noah took his first trip to Ocean City, Maryland and put his feet in the sand for the first time. We also went to Rehoboth Beach and Noah got on his first ride - boats - which he enjoyed a lot before they began moving and tolerated once they started. We also took Noah to the zoo for the first time with Uncle Jeff, Abby and Emma - it was a hot one, but he seemed fascinated by the animals.

Every day I remark on how quickly he is growing up and how well he picks up on things now. I keep telling him to stop growing up so fast, but he just isn't listening! He is such a good, happy baby and we are loving every moment! There are a lot of new photos and videos which hopefully I'll post here too.
