A short video of Noah (holding on for dear life?)

Grandma and Grandpa come for a visit!

Grandpa Steve and Grandma Max came for a visit this weekend - and we had a great time. They got to see Noah crawling all over the place and play with him. We also went out for many yummy meals (Dim Sum and Sushi - two of Noah's favorites!) and went to the Children's Museum on Sunday. Grandpa Steve proved himself to be a Grandpaparazzi, as the following pictures will attest!

Grandpa and Noah

What's up Grandpa?

Cheek grabbing - my favorite pastime . . .

Hanging out with Grandma

I can get anywhere!!!!

BUT NOW THAT I'M HERE - HOW DO I GET DOWN?

(I exaggerate somewhat - we put him on the table - he cannot (YET) get onto the table himself. I do think the day is fast approaching however when he will be hanging from the rafters like the little monkey that he is).

The Children's Museum, Part II - Mirror Mirror on the Wall

Noah had a great time in the crawler room at the Children's Museum. The wall length mirror was a big hit!

The Children's Museum!

Exploring different shapes . . .









The wonderful world of Soap Bubbles!






On the tatami mat in the Japanese House

Click!!!

Something clicked in Noah's brain last week - he was "swimming" on his stomach and rocking back and forth for two months . . . then all of a sudden something went click! and now he is crawling everywhere and pulling himself up on everything. It was as if he said "oh, I get it now!"

On Valentine's Day

When I look pouty like this, mom gives me whatever I want!

Toast? My favorite. . .

Noah is spiffy!

Noah cleans up pretty well! (Now if I could just do something about that crazy hair . . .)

I also like this picture because Noah is surrounded by pictures of his ancestors - the large portrait behind his head is of his great great grandparents . . .
