Backlogged

Since the holidays, I've been enjoying 'down' time and therefore have been neglecting the blog. So here's a one to get us back on track.

For New Years Eve, we had a very last minute, small 'kids' get together at our house. Maddie and her parents, Stella Dot and her parents, and Savannah and her parents came over to celebrate. We set up pack and plays upstairs and actually got Maddie and Stella Dot to sleep here (this opens up all sorts of new possibilities!). Savannah decided she wanted to enjoy the festivities! None of us made it to midnight and everyone was gone by 11 but we had a great time! Didn't get many shots from the night but here are a few random ones....



Here's a couple pics from the morning after... :-)

On New Years day, we went over to Nana and Grandad's house for a nice dinner - including black eyed peas for luck. :-) Noah got his last Christmas present and it is a huge hit! - a playhouse - which will be outside once it gets warmer (next we'll have to think more about the size of his gifts! - we are running out of room!). :-)

On the 2nd, we walked two doors down to Maddie's house to enjoy some yummy homemade chili and jalapeno poppers compliments of Janet and Frank! We also had a sing-along which was so fun. Frank plays banjo and Grant brought his guitar and we all sang and danced. Unfortunately, Noah was obsessed with the cat and wouldn't stop looking for it - 'cat?' 'cat?' 'cat?' 'cat?' - so we had to make and early-ish exit.


On Saturday, Waylon's parents brought the playhouse to our house. :-) Noah was so excited about it, he could hardly contain himself...


Kay and Dick stayed to play for a few hours and Waylon and I took advantage of the grandparent time to sneak out and watch the State game over at our friends', Josh and Anise's, house.

That Sunday, another playdate with Stella Dot and then a typical week for us. I got out with some girlfriends on Thursday night.

This past Saturday, Waylon had to work for part of the day, so it was another playdate for Noah and I, Maddie and Janet, Stella Dot and Amy, and Elizabeth and Jacque came over - Jacque is another girl who was in our pre-natal yoga class. Elizabeth is just a few weeks younger than Noah. So much fun! Again, didn't get many great pictures but to my credit, it's hard to get them these days!

Noah had a bird beanie baby in his mouth and was putting his face right up to Stella Dot's. Stella Dot thought it was halarious, but I wasn't quite sure what was going on until Waylon saw the picture and explained...
The house has a 'stove' and Waylon was using the bird to make 'fried chicken' and pretending to eat it. Apparently Noah was just trying to share some KFC. :-)

And the last picture... Noah in my boots - do you think we need to find him some boys to play with?? :-)

Enjoy your week!
