I ended up taking a few more shots today because Noah was being so stinkin' weird and crazy. He was also being a bit of a brat... my fault for not making him nap today. He always gets crazy if he doesn't get a nap. He was hitting everything with this plastic tube and screaming. He never hit me or the baby so I was just kind of watching him go nuts. My excuse will be that I wanted him to burn energy. He also was crawling around the deck, kissing my feet, "I love feet" and cracking up. Then he was crawling under my chair telling me "I love butt" and cracking up. Already with the little boy potty humor.
It was so nice once the sun was off the deck. There was a great breeze blowing and it was maybe 76 or so in the shade. We stayed out until it was bed time. Usually when the sun goes down the mosquitoes come out. I ended up putting a pair of jeans on to try and save myself from the tiny vampires. I hate mosquitoes :P I got a much better picture of Tristan's new beautiful chub! :) I love cuddling with my babies... but not when they're covered in sweat, chalk, jelly, yogurt, boogers, and whatever other nastiness managed to stick to 'em that day. That's why new babies are so great haha.
Oh,I just love that last picture,the 1st one of Noah is really great too :) Good job on nursing,aren't you proud that all his chub is thanks to you?!I always think that when I look at Ember.It's amazing that they can thrive just on breast milk :)
I hate mosquitoes too.:P We don't ever get any here.I always get eaten up when I go to my parents house though!I'm glad it cooled down just enough for you guys to be outside.Noah sounds so funny!I bet he & Dylan would just have a ball together being boys :D

I love the last picture to! That is so sweet! How did you get it taken?
That's funny about Noah. Haley gets to be a crank ball with no nap. I love when she takes naps. I'm going to be so depressed and sad when nap time will be over coming up shortly I'm sure. Does Noah still take a nap everyday normally?
katie - I've gotten to be a pro at taking pictures of myself over the past few years. I have the added bonus of being blessed with long monkey-like arms.
Noah takes a nap on days we don't have anything to do or really just if we can fit it in. He didn't take one yesterday or today, which just means he goes down at 8 instead of 9 or 10. He gets to be a loud crazy pain in the butt, but he's bearable :)
I love it too cute. Don't you just love when they run wild and haven't the slightest idea what they are doing. I love having a boy but it is non stop all day. He has to be busy just about every minute of the day. He is so easy to read too. Its like I know what the next dangerous idea he is going to try out!
We almost ended up with a puppy today. An adorable baby Jack Russell Terrier mix wandered into our yard. He was very sweet, laid back, flea-ridden, dirty, cute, a little broken, good temperament, un-fixed, and very very good with Noah and Emma. I asked the neighbors about him and they showed me where the owner lived. She took him inside and told me how he's driving her crazy because he chews through collars and gets out of the yard (which is because he's a puppy and not an outside breed). She mentioned possibly getting rid of him. Lo and behold he wandered back into our yard not too long after that... interesting. I wanted to adopt him because he was unwanted, but shouldn't have been. He was a very sweet dog. I would have called him Jackie I think :) This brings me to a rant. I know I've posted about the way people around here treat their pets. This is a perfect example. This lady didn't want the puppy anymore so she simply let it go. No collar, no tags...
We're still going strong with our happiness levels out here. Yesterday was a little bit rough because Tristan was especially whiney, but today was amazing :) We got our grocery shopping done and even managed to have fun doing that! Noah and I were singing Christmas songs already while Tris and Bren laughed at us. Tristan sometimes piped in with a "all the way" when we were singing Jingle Bells. Noah was cracking up when I sang him the Batman version :D After all that excitement the 2 wee ones went down for their naps and Noah and I gave Bosley a bath with his new tea extract shampoo. He looks and smells so wonderful now :) He was in such a good mood after that too! Noah made a concoction of plum leaves, olives, dirt, and paper which he called "olive a cado". While he was doing his own grocery shopping I was taking some macro shots with my new focus point knowledge. I'm very happy. I thought I loved my camera before! Anyway... We also built a littl...
Hooray Hooray Noah turned six today!! We had such a great day today!!! Noah wanted pancakes and bacon for breakfast... 6 small pancakes (and one shaped like a 6 to "grow on" from Mommy). He did a fun little scavenger hunt for his big present, which was a lego Star Wars ship that he and Daddy built together all morning. Noah had that ship with him all day long. He also got a goggle and snorkel set from Tristan and a Ben 10 kite and frisbee from Brennan. We spent all day playing together, laughing together, talking, hugging, kissing, wrestling, tickling, napping... it was perfect. We went to the park to fly his kite before dinner and cake and it actually made it up a few times, but there wasn't enough wind to keep it there. Noah didn't care! He was just happy to run with a kite. We all took turns trying to make it fly. Daddy taught him how to throw and catch his new frisbee and he's already a champ at throwing. Catching is a different story lol. Adriana...
