(14m 13d)
Noah cracks me up! He loves to dance to music! any kind of music, we will be driving in the car and I will have the radio on and look in the mirror and see noah head-bobbing! He has such good rythym, too! and some songs he will put his arms up in the air and head bob!
He still in not walking and showing no interest. He walks well with his push toys and cruises very readily along the furniture but when we attempt to take his hand and encourage him to walk, he resists.
He loves to talk on the phone, or pretend anyway. He will use his toy phones and hold them on his shoulder and talk to dada! then give us the phone so we can talk, too. He will use anything to pretend, a stuffed toy, his cup, a tooth brush. He also loves to brush his hair. He will take his brush (and tooth brush) and brush his hair! He can point to his belly, eyes, nose, and head when asked and beep your nose, if you ask, too. He loves the dogs, especially Jack. He comes down in the morning asking for "Jacks and Sis". It is so cute! He hugs Jack as paris will not tolerate it. He also puts toys in his mouth and "shakes it up" as Svet does. He eats cheerios off of his tray like the dogs eat food out of their bowl. He is doing well with the sippy cup, and only drinks from the bottle for his milk. That is the next step, to elimiate those 3 bottles of warm milk. I love the cuddle time, so I am partly to blame. I am working on making the milk cold, we have to by our trip in May.
He is going to nana's house twice a week from 7am-130pm and doing very well. He loves his nana and grandpa!

Jacks and Sis
(14m 5d)
Noah healed pretty well from surgery, he is such a trooper!
He is walking with his push toys very well, and stands on his own momentarily, but is not taking steps yet. He is drinking out of his sippy cup well but still loves his 3 bottles of warm milk each day, which I don't think I am ready to give up yet either. He loves that cuddle time, and so do I!
when noah gets up in the morning and comes downstairs, he askes for "Jacks and Sis".... He loves Jack and Paris! He plays on the floor with them and tries to kiss them! (Noah kisses by opening his mouth and sticking out his tongue).
He is eating well with the table foods now, and helping to feed himself with the spoon. He is growing up so fast!
I can't wait for spring to take him outside and go for walks. We have been going to MOPS and a play group once a week when I am not working, but we need to get out of the house more.
He loves playing with emma, and she loves to hug and kiss him! He is such a boy and totally blocks her. They do get along quite well.
He has 4 teeth now, two on top and two on the bottom. He currently has 4 more coming in,... one on either side of the present teeth. That explains his crankiness two weeks ago and inability to sleep. I wish I realized that earlier and gave him some tylenol, poor kid!
He is climbing on everything! He uses his home depot tractor to climb on the coffee table and couch! He uses his dora couch to climb onto the toy box and reach for pictures on the wall, and uses the music activity table to climb onto the rocking chair. He is so active! But I am glad he is healthy and normal, that is all I ask.

Surgery Day
(13m 4d)
Noah had his urology surgery today. They originally thought at birth that he had a hypospadius and a chordee so they did not circumsize him. They wanted to wait until he was over a year old to correct it. The surgery went very smoothly. He did not have a hypospadius but a torsion of the penis and chordee, which they repaired and did his circumcision as well. He had a cold the two weeks prior, so we were worried that they would not take him, but praise the Lord, his symptoms disappeard the morning of surgery! exaclty what I was praying for! (they did, however, return after surgery!) He did very well with not eating or drinking the morning of surgery. I felt so bad, we fed him so much the night before that ended up throwing up after having a coughing jag. He did very well in the morning, sleeping late as planned and leaving on time. Noah played and was in a pretty good mood in the preop area. They did not take him in until 11am, so that was a long morning with no breakfast or anything to drink. He did very well in surgery and it was quick and smooth. We got to see him at noon in pacu and he drank 14 oz over the next hour. The dr discharged him and we went home. He is in pretty good spirits! The night after surgery was a little tough to get him to go to sleep, but once he was sleeping, he was fine. I was very happy with how CCMC handled everything!

one year physical
(12m 5d)
Noah had his 12m appt today, 21.8 pounds, 29.5 inches. all is well! and 4 teeth! the top two came in these past few days! When he chews on my finger it feels like little kitten teeth! Sharp and Pointy!!!
He is so active, crawls right up the stairs with ease. He has been working on this for a while, taking his time and playing... but on his bday he crawled right up there like it was nothing! Now we have to work on coming down...
He loves to play peek a boo and clap. He loves making us laugh and loves being the center of attention.
The other day he climbed up on the big blue love seat and got back down with such ease, he is amazing! He is changing so much these past few weeks!
He gave up his pacifier without any issues, I am so proud of him. I am trying to get him to take the sippy cup more often, but he just plays with it and only takes a few sips. He loves his bottle!
His big 1st birthday party is this saturday, it should be lots of fun!

Happy 1st Birthday!
Noah is 1 today!!! Such an exciting day!!!
Tonight the grandparents are coming over for dinner, cake and presents and then his big party is on 1/13. We rented out the back room of a restaurant and going to have lots of friends, family and lots of kids... (all our friend's kids). so I was scratching my head trying to figure out how to keep them entertained... I hired "elmo" and then after she does her elmo bit, she changes into a rag doll (I hate clowns) and she'll do animal balloons and face painting while we do cake and presents. I know, kind of extravagent for the 1st bday... but I really want to! certainly won't be like this every year!
