Big Blues....

Not sure where these big beautiful blue eyes came from...Ben and mine are both brown, Ben says it was the mail man, I say it was the milk maid

The boy loves his nap time

Noah has finally got on a consistant nap schedule for the past month or so. It is like clock work, no matter where he his, if its nap time, he is all in. The other day I wasn't paying attention to the time and walked into the room to find him like this....too cute.

Umpa Loompa do pa dee do....

Ben got some new wrk gloves for his B-Day and when we was done at the end of the day this is the result. Even better, we were going out for our anniversary that night at a nice restaurant. So Ben had to use my Mary Kay exfoliant scrub and litterly scrub the top layer of skin off his hands to get them sort of back to regular color....oh the little things in life are hilarious.

We love the Jump-A-Roo!!

Noah just got to the point where he can sit in his Jump-A-Roo and his tippy toes hit the ground. Every time it jumps little lights come on and it plays a little song. It is so much fun watching him figure things out and intently stare at the little animals. Its like you can just see all the little synapsus connecting in his brain. Not to mention that I can have a little time to get stuff done while he is awake. Right now he will literaly sit in it for an hour, such a content baby!

Noah's 3 month pictures

Noah and I went to get his pictures taken today. Of course he was all smiles while we waited, and then once it was picture time the smiles were few and far between. We caught a few though.

More going home....

I got a little distracted and didn't finish posting the rest of the pictures of our trip back home. Noah and I flew out to Sacramento on the 6th and Ben flew down to Corpus Christi to help his brother Josh drive all of their stuff back to California. Noah and I hung out with Ben's mom & dad and then once Ben got into California we headed over to the ovean to spend some time with my parents. It was so great to see family and to get to introduce them to Noah.
