Noah's 23 Months old

This morning Noah was reading books to Bear in his crib so I snagged a picture.


I can't believe he's almost 2! Let's take a trip down memory lane, shall we? :) We'll start with, of course his newborn picture...

He looked pretty cute for a newborn I thought. I think I did a pretty good job pushing. Here he is at 2 months old. I just love his face in this picture.


Here he is at the ripe old age of 5 months. He was trying to crawl and smiling constantly which made it easy to see when he was teething haha!

Here he is at 7 months. He was pulling up, speed crawling, eating a LOT and he had quite a few teeth already! Perfect for biting mommy. And, still smiling :)

This is Noah at 10 mos. He was standing on his own and cruising really well. He started walking towards the end of his 10th month.


And here he is on his 1st Birthday. This is the first time he had ice cream or cake, and the last time he had either in my presence... stupid daycare thinks sugar is fine for babies. Anyway...


I think I'll stop the memory lane trip here since I'm sure I'll want to do another one next month. It's amazing how quickly he's growing.

Today we spent a couple hours running and jumping and rolling in the grass over at Brackenridge Park again. This time we went on the train that goes around the park. Then we went and picked up lunch and ate it by the ducks and just explored after that. I found the San Antonio Botanical Gardens, but there was a wedding reception being held there so it was closed to the public. I think we'll try to go next weekend or something. I actually forgot to bring my camera today. I think it was good though because I played instead of taking pictures. Sometimes I get too wrapped up in getting good shots and Noah gets stuck being lonely. OK time for me to get Noah a bath. We're an hour off schedule already, but boy did we have fun. I thought about Josh the entire time. You would have loved it, babe. I can't wait until we can all roll in the grass together :)

Oh, and I am planning an awesome roadtrip for us to take in November up to Kansas. The drive is 13 hours and is possible in one day, but we're taking 2 days. I've picked out at least one attraction for each of us per stop and we're making a total of 3 stops from here to there. Gardens for me, Museums for Josh... all the restaurants, the hotel. I've got it all planned out. I can't wait :) Yeah... bathtime.

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...

Germany

Noah and I are having a great time out in Germany with Josh. The house we're sharing is amazing and the people are also amazing. The only thing we don't have is our own kitchen, but like I said, the people who live here (Josh's friends) are amazing so it's not even an issue. I've been cooking for everyone to try to thank them in some way. We haven't been to many places yet. It's hard to go anywhere with a baby who has a naptime and a husband who has a job. However!! We managed to make it out to Heidelberg to see the castle. It was awesome. the walk up to the castle mmmm castle Heidelberg down below Christmas is huge here. They've even got Christmas markets out in the parking lot in front of WalMart. We've been to Luisenplatz a few times in downtown Darmstadt to visit all the Christmas shops they have set up. It's like a Christmas flea market. Thus far all I've blown money on is candy... mmmm German candy is so delicious. It's...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...
