"Sooooooo Big"

We know that every child goes through this stage, but it's so stinkin' cute and impressive that we had to share it with you. Noe continues to surprise us everyday. Like tonight for instance, she climbed into a laundry basket and then proceeded to try to climb onto a very large bookcase. Thank goodness Pat has the skills and speed of a Ninja! ;)

Noe takes on Gymboree

So I took Noe to her first Gymboree class today. I thought for sure she would be a shy little thing and that she would be permanently attached to Mama. Boy was I wrong! She explored every inch of that place with no problems. She climbed up the ramps, used the slide and threw the balls. She helped pick up at the end and even crawled on other Moms. It just goes to show that even when you think you finally figured them out...they keep the surprises coming.

80 degrees in January

Is it summer? It sure feels like it. We had an amazing day at the beach on Sunday. Just hanging out with family and friends and enjoying a beautiful day. Noe played for hours in the sand and the only peep we heard out of her was when she dropped her banana in the sand. She even tried riding Uncle Bobby's surfboard, but the water was freezing. So, we can't wait to see her in action this summer.



Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Growing like a weed

Our little Peanut is growing like a weed. We can't believe how much fun she is. She's laughing, talking up a storm (although no one can understand her all the time), clapping, shaking her booty, and just loving life. She's constantly bringing us books to read to her and loves doing everything on her own. Except sleeping. She loves having Mommy and Daddy around for that.

And she loves to eat pretty much everything, and her favorite is broccoli. Can you believe that??
But my favorite part of the day is when Patty gets home from work. Noe gets so excited and can't wait to play with Daddy! Ahh love and family...that's what it's all about.

Happy New Year!
