18 month check up and doings

Yup he is tall.... Weighs a lot.... Is always moving..... Currently, he is standing on my leg as I lift up my leg..... Who needs a gym?

He starts to squeal... If you ask him if he's loud... He does it even more....

Things he used to do instantly now takes him ten minutes because he has to run around avoiding it and looking at you laughing and smiling because he knows he's being bad.... Oh boy...

Pictured below... A sneak photo... And one where I asked him to say hi...

Omaha Zoo Vacation

 This is the only photo of the zoo I have on my phone....

Noah coloring on the way home...

Daddy likes seeing how long Noah's hair "really" is...

Noah likes being able to watch Daddy cook and do dishes....

This photo wasn't even altered!

Noah likes playing in the babysitter's garden.....

Random Update....

Noah has started doing this whenever he see's the camera... of for that matter if I am holding

the phone up....

 The train he gets to play with at church....

Noah peaking in while I was trying to organize that room...

Noah inked himself.....do you see it?

Noah has been walking around with his eyes closed lately... and spinning....

Other random facts.... If you ask him if he's one... he puts one finger up.

If you ask him what his name is... he replies Nee.

When he's talking on the phone he will say bye and wave bye.

He gives kisses and hugs....

I'm sure there is more, but that is all I can think of right now....

Noah's Imagination

Mommy and Noah had a day together on Tuesday.  Apparently the 3 section train that Oma got him is no longer good enough... notice we have a tractor, train, animal (with bus on top), followed by another tractor.... He was pushing all of them and trying to keep them all going the same direction.

Noah is starting to do this whenever he thinks I am going to take a picture... his "cheese"... eyes closed included.

So YES... Mr. Noah has to start putting his food on our table... the tray is starting to not be good enough... 

Little man

We have taken really neat pictures on our good camera... however they are much harder to put on the blog since I only have internet on my phone now......

However.... you can't get too mad because this ONE is super cute :)

They were harvesting outside our house and we went outside to see the "car".... he saw me put my hands in my pocket... the result..

Wisconsin Sale

Noah had been walking around with this trophy saying moooo

so we decided to go to a sale where grandpa was selling moos.

as a break for the weekend, noah went shopping with the girls ...... he liked the balloons.

then he found a chair that was comfy and his size....this is what i get for asking him to smile.

a more candid shot.

mommy bought a new purse.

noah then took a nap on the way back.

after such a fun filled morning.... it was time for Happy 
Joe's pizza....

then time for a real nap.... it worked well.... we then pushed the high back chair against where he was standing.... he then couldnt see us...perfect.

on sale day grandpa tried a hat on noah.... he liked at first but was getting tired of it when i decided to take a picture.....
on a side note..... noah kept pointing to grandpas hat this weekend and said moo.... grandpa joked and said is that all you know me as is moo.... later someone else told me their grandson called her husband grandpa cow......


shortly after this picture was taken a man asked noah of he liked cows. noah said cow..... that has been the only time..... all before and after he says moo... you can ask him if he can say cow.... he replies moo.

uncle steven helped noah pet a steer

noah then sat on the bleachers during the sale.

then we came home to a nice warm fire :
