What an ornery little stinker!

Noah's 1st Christmas Program
This evening Josh and I experienced one of the joys of being a parent.
We got to see Noah "sing" in his very first Christmas program.
It was so sweet and without a doubt the cutest thing I've ever seen.
We weren't sure how Noah would respond to having to stand
in front of a large crowd of people, but he did wonderful!
We were so very proud of our little statue. :)
It was soooo funny. Noah barely moved a muscle the entire time
he was up there. But what a brave little guy he was for getting
up in front of all those people! We loved every minute of it.
What a wonderful way to start the Christmas season.

Branson with Family
I am so behind... it is just pitiful.
I cannot believe I am just now getting around to
writing about our trip to Branson, Missouri this Summer.
I feel like I can never get caught up!
But I am slowly making progress and it feels soooo good!
I am going to get caught up if it's the last thing I do!
Here are some of my favorite pictures
of our time together on the lake:
Oh Matt, you never fail me with your funny expressions.
Dad relaxing..
My pretty little Mom.
Anytime we moved the boat to a different
area of the lake, Noah would fall right to sleep.
As soon as we stopped moving, it wasn't
long before Noah was up and running around.
Noah with his grandparents. Love this picture!
So glad Bibi {my sister, Abby's, husband}
could come with us this trip.
My dad rented a boat with a bunch of fun toys.
We had so much fun playing on the lake.
Getting kisses from Aunt Megan. So sweet!
Look who got to drive the boat!
Sleepy little guy. We must have been
driving the boat around. :)
Abby and Mom.
Love that sweet smile.
Hmmm.
Wonder where he gets it from?
Looking at the big fish on the dock.
What a wonderful, relaxing trip we all had!
There is nothing better than spending time together as a family.

Happy 27 Months!
Surprise, surprise I'm three days late posting Noah's 27 month post. But "Better late than never," is my motto. :)
Noah, you turned 27 months on the 27th of November! I can hardly believe it.
You are still in a size 5 diaper, but it won't be long before those size 5's are busting at the seams. Your diapers are getting more and more snug as each day passes.
You are a 2T both in shirts and pants and a size 7-8 in shoe.
You are mesmerized by anything Toy Story. I can't wait to see the excitement in your face Christmas morning. Mommy and Daddy may have gone a little Toy Story crazy this year. :)
You are talking, talking, talking! And it is wonderful; I love hearing your sweet little voice. You are learning new words everyday and I have been amazed at how much your vocabulary has grown this past month. I love all the words you say, but my absolute favorite is when you say "bye-bye." I'll have to post a video of you saying all of your words soon. You are just too cute!
You have quickly learned the benefits of using your step stool. Nothing is out of your reach now. Like the full bag of powdered donuts you {somehow???} reached and emptied for Einstein to eat on the ground. When I came in the living room, there was no doubt you boys were in the donuts. You had white powdered sugar all over your fingers and Einstein's whole face was covered in it as well. Apparently you were leaving Einstein a trail of powdered donuts on the living room floor.
You love when we say our prayers and last night at bedtime when you said your prayers with Daddy, you said "amen" for first time.
You must be going through a growth spurt right now. You are eating, eating, eating! Daddy said this morning you had three bowls of cereal! Then you ate lunch AND dinner too. Not a common occurrence around here.
You had your first push pop the other evening while we were at Target, and you LOVED it! Mommy, ahem Santa, may have secretly grabbed another one to put in your stocking.
You love to play with silverware... particularly spoons. You are always carrying around at least one or two.
You love to yell. Especially when we are in a restaurant. Of course. And when we tell you to be quiet, you yell even louder. You little stinker! However, if we whisper, most of the time you'll whisper back.
You have started to jump up and down now to show excitement about something. It is precious.
You go to sleep at night around 7:30-8:00 pm and usually sleep twelve hours straight. You are still doing so wonderful sleeping in your toddler bed.
You definitely know who your grandparents and aunts and uncles are. You get really excited when you see them.
You LOVE orange juice, and you're not shy about asking for it.
You have learned when you are trouble {to try to get out of it} to stick your arms in the air so Mommy or Daddy will pick you up to hold you. Worth a try, right? Melts my heart every time, even though I have to resist.
You are very curious and what to know what everything is around you. There are so many things to learn!
You love to talk to Mommy and Daddy on the phone-- it is the cutest thing ever. Another thing I must video!
You are very, very ticklish! Mommy and Daddy know all your spots. :)
You are the sweetest boy ever! Happy 27 months little guy!
Love you always,

Bah, Humbug!
It is 11 p.m. and I have been cleaning and doing laundry
since Noah and I woke up from our nap this afternoon.
I cannot wait to bring out all of our Christmas decor,
but not until things are in order around here.
Know what I'm saying?
I still have so much to get done...
All I have to say about that is:
to sit down and have a little fun in Photoshop.
It turned out pretty cute, huh? I'm thinking I might
need to make a trip to Walgreen's tomorrow
to print it off so I can add it to my Christmas decor.
If you like it and would like download it,
just click the image above.
For an 8x10 click here.
Well, I think I'm gonna head to bed. :)
Goodnight!

Back Home
Noah and I are home from our wonderful
Thanksgiving in Oklahoma!
Josh didn't have to work today, so we decided to come
home a day early and spend some good quality time with Daddy.
We sure missed him!
Speaking of Josh, I'm off to snuggle with him
and watch A Christmas Carol. Love that movie!
But before I go, I just wanted to share one of my
favorite pictures from our weekend:
Noah loved Mimi's dress up hats.
{Especially when they were on Mimi and
Mommy's head and not his!}
Noah was wearing his "Woody" pajamas the night we discovered
the hats. So when we found the brown hat, it was a perfect fit.
Of course, he was not in the mood to wear it. But I still managed
to sneak a cute picture before he took it off his head.
He sure is a cute little cowboy!
Oh, and one more thing!
I did survive the craziness of Black Friday {barely!}, and got
Noah's toy for $20 cheaper! Ha. It was quite an interesting night.
Not sure if I'll ever do it again, but it was fun to experience at least once.
Well, this post turned out to be a little
longer than I expected. Oh well. :)
Goodnight!
