Santa Suit

Christmas would not be complete without Noah in a Santa Suit. We took these pictures after Christmas with more time on our hands. We kept it a secret that we had the suit from the folks up north, hence why it never made it on the Christmas card. Of course I am biased and couldn't just pick one picture. It will have to be a scrapbook page by itself.





Christmas continued...

So, the other post got a little long. Here's the rest of Christmas. This is our family Christmas in the hotel. Sorry for not cropping and editing pictures. If you click on the pictures to look at them they look better than what is showing. Not sure why that is unless I just made them fit too small. Sorry.

Christmas

This year we traveled to Indiana for Christmas. For the most part Noah did okay. He lost a lot of sleep that he is still trying to catch up on a week later. (Hence, why is has taken me so long to post these.) We had a great time seeing everyone and meeting a few new cousins. Noah had so much fun opening presents. Thank you for the play time, conversations, and gifts.

Noah's new favorite toy from Great Grandma Price. Yes he can fit the whole top into his mouth.

I like to eat my toes!!

Well, if Noah doesn't have socks on his favorite thing to do is put his toes in his mouth. Yes, you did read and reread that correctly. He's figured it out!

Eating time!!

So we went for our follow-up appointment at the doctors office this week. We found out that Noah's weight is a little low. Therefore we are starting cereal. So far he has only eaten it twice. The pictures are from the first round. He understands the spoon goes in his mouth and will open wide for it, but he is still working on the swallowing part. We go in January for a 6 month check-up and we'll see how much this helps. He's definitely curious.

Baptism

Noah was baptized yesterday morning. He did really well and even slept through the service afterwards. We invited our "lunch bunch" over after church for a great chili lunch. Thanks for enjoying us on Noah's special day.

P.J. was there as well, but took all the pictures. Thank you. Noah was baptized in both the gowns that Matt and I were baptized in.

Getting better and tree hunting

So Noah found his first official Christmas tree on Saturday. We bundled him up and headed out. This was the finial result.

There were lots of trees to pick from, but due to the drought they were small and not as full.
Noah is doing much better. He still has a cough, but at least he is breathing easier. He can still keep a hair style while sick though. I took his when he woke up from one of his many naps.

The croup

It was just a typical day when all of a sudden Noah woke up from his nap coughing. At first I thought, that's just a cough he's okay. Better thought said I should go check on him. As I ran up the stairs to his room I found him in his crib trying to cough and trying to cry and not being able to. PANIC!!! I picked him up and patted him on the back. I knew he wasn't choking on anything since he was the only thing in the crib. He was still breathing, but having a hard time. So I called Matt and work and told him he had to come home NOW, then I called the doctors office. After a few directions the comment was if it doesn't look better in 20 to 30 minutes take him to the emergency room. By this time, Matt arrived home and the suggestions were starting to work. Matt goes back to work and Noah takes a nap on my lap. When he wakes up the same thing happens again. Call Matt again and tell him he needs to leave now to come home (it was 5:00 by this time) because it was happening again. I take Noah and run across the street to my neighbors to get another "mommy" opinion and she said we needed to take him to the emergency room. He was too little to be struggling for air like that. At soon as Matt pulls in were off. We got to the back fairly quick and then got all the, is this your first child? is this the first time he has been sick? questions. Of course, we had to answer yes and he is still looking at us saying well, he doesn't have a temp, his temperament seems fine, etc, and then Noah starts to cry and cough and can't get a lot of air. The man looks at Noah and said that's the croup hold on a minute. Within 3 minutes we were put in a room. After hours of waiting and two x-rays later we were told he had the croup and to wait it out. The x-rays were to check that his air way wasn't swollen and at risk for closing. They sent us home with a few directions and now we have Noah sleeping in our room so we can get him up if the cough gets to bad. Yesterday he spent the whole day sleeping on the couch only getting up to eat. He sounds much better today, but is still trying to recover. Definitely an experience.

Crazy Hair

By the way, many have asked so we will post. Noah's hair has a mind of his own. Sometimes it sticks sraight up and other times it lays flat. It doesn't matter how I comb it because it will do its own thing.

Happy Thanksgiving!

For Thanksgiving a lot of Matt's family for Indiana came to visit. We had a great time with them and a fabulous dinner! Many games were played on the Wii and many conversations were had by all. Noah was excited to meet everyone, but he is very tuckered out and ready to get back on a schedule for sure. He loves and needs his sleep. Enjoy taking a peek into our day.

Merry Christmas a little early!

Since my family is so spread out and there are many little ones it is hard to get together for Christmas. Therefore we created the tradition of either getting together before or after Christmas. Then we tried to do it on Thanksgiving and combine the two. Well, this year it ended up being the weekend before Thanksgiving. We had a great time in Atlanta with all the family. It's always nice to see each other. Our snapshot selection is small since we had the video camera out. However, Noah enjoyed opening his first present. The family picture will come when I get it.

Ellijay, GA

This weekend we had the great opportunity to go the mountains with one of my sister's family and parents. We had a great time relaxing, enjoying each others company, and letting the new cousins play together. Hope you enjoy our pictures of the weekend. Thanks Jody, Pete, Mom and Dad.

YEAH we have boys in the family. Cousins Noah and Sam playing.

New toys to play with...

We got down a new toy for Noah to play. As you can see the exersaucer is doing it's job. He likes it a lot and it getting use to all different toys. As for Polly, she has taken over his play gym. (Just kidding, but for some reason if Noah isn't using it she thinks it is a great place for a nap.)

Sleepy and What was that?

The funny events of the day. Noah and I went shopping this morning and apparently it must have worn him out. He was playing on his gym and the next time I looked down this is what I saw.

Once he woke up he rolled over! (Now he will occasionally roll from his tummy to his back, but I've never seen him go from his back to his tummy!!) Anyway, this is the face he made after the event. Not sure if even he knows what he did.
