It's still something new every day now. Noah is pulling up on everything and cruising the furniture with ease now. Well, maybe not ease... he's still a little slow, but he is pretty confident (and I'm getting there, too). He's actually using Savannah's toy to walk for real now. He's also now finally able to go from laying down to sitting on his own. Before we know it, he'll be running all over the place. He's also eating all kinds of 'real' foods now... cheese, turkey, veggies, crackers.... it's fun to watch him feed himself.
To update about the ears. He did have ear infections in both ears (this makes 6 since Jan), so he's on antibiotics yet again and we are off to the ENT this Thursday. I assume we'll end up with tubes but it will be good to get the ENT's thoughts about the whole situation. The antibiotics seemed to make him feel better, as usual, but he's been waking up at night the past few nights again. We weren't sure what was going on until today when I looked in his mouth and realized that one (and maybe two) molars are trying to break through. Fun fun... more teething!
We had a fun weekend. Saturday night we had a neighborhood block party and Noah got his first kiss! We grilled out burgers and hot dogs and sausages and everyone brought a side dish or dessert to share. It was so nice to get to know the neighbors better (and meet some, too). Madelyn is a little girl who lives down the street and also happens to go to the same daycare as Noah. She's a little older than Noah (maybe 15 months or so?). She kept trying to kiss Noah, but Noah was trying to be faithful to Stella Dot and kept pushing her face away. Finally, Noah decided that Abner can have Stella Dot and let Maddie kiss him. :-) It was so cute. We went inside around 7:30 to put Noah down and since the party was right out in front of our house, we grabbed the monitor and stayed at the party until 1AM! It was so much fun! Luckily, Noah let us sleep in until 7:30 the next morning but we were still pretty tired on Sunday.
Here's a shot from the block party... you can see Maddie toddling around in the background.
Sunday afternoon, we went to visit our friends JB and Courtney who had a new baby, Hudson, three weeks ago. He was, of course, adorable and so were there other two kids, Keenan and Campbell. It was nice to visit with them and hold another newbie. While we were there, Noah got his second kiss from Campbell... he really likes those older women!
Back to work tomorrow... then we have several fun weekends coming up. This weekend is my first real Mother's Day, the weekend after that I'm going to the lake with some girlfriends and leaving Noah and Waylon for some father/son bonding time (my first overnight away from Noah!), and then the following weekend we are going back to the lake again for Memorial Day with my parents. Fun times!!
A few more cute shots from the weekend....
