Christmas Is Coming!

Must go shopping! We gave Noah an early Christmas present this year so he could practice shopping for everyone. He loves this little shopping cart! It's just his size and he wheels it around the house. He loves to carry toys or even a cat in his new buggy!

New Baby Update

Julie had to go to the doctor yesterday to check on the baby since she had some bleeding on Sunday. Everything still looks good and baby was moving around! It still has a nice strong heartbeat of 176 bpm. They saw a little "blood sack" above the uterus but said it was nothing to worry about. Baby has changed so much in just 2 weeks! Mommy saw baby moving it's hand in front of face and it's heart beating. Such an amazing thing! Here's a picture at 10 weeks 2 days. The little white speck to the left of the head is baby's hand moving!

The Lil' Dinosaur

We had a lot of fun this year on Halloween! Aunt Lynn from Nashville,TN came down to spend time with Noah and Julie. We had a great time! Jeremy worked until 8 so he missed a lot of the fun. :( Maybe next year he'll be home for trick or treating! It was dark around 6 so we suited Noah up and headed out for some candy! Noah wasn't so sure about trick or treating at first. After a few houses he seemed to get the hang of it. Everytime someone would open their front door he wanted to go in and play! He's such a friendly kid. :-) Aunt Lynn and Mommy did a good job keeping him moving from door to door. They saw lots of spooks! Noah knocked on about 6 or 7 houses before passing out on the ground. Aunt Lynn was great and carried him home! Once at home it was time to pass out candy! Oh my gosh! We never imagined there would be that many kids! They just kept coming and would usually arrive in big groups! Noah wasn't quite sure why they were coming to his door. Several times he ran outside and tried to take off with the other children. After awhile he got his second wind a.k.a. a sugar high! He escaped outside and jumped on his trike! It was the cutest thing ever! A green dino on a bike! Noah was wired, he zoomed around the yard on his dino ride. Everyone that came to the door thought he was the cutest little dinosaur.

Halloween Party

Noah had his 1st Halloween Party at school. Look at all the stuff he scored! And he's not even 2 yet! (some is from Aunt Lynn, thanks Aunt Lynn!) They sure start kids early on sugar and goodies. We love his teacher. She gave all the kids their own little pumpkin and goody bag. Two of his classmates also gave out goody bags. Looks like we will be making Christmas goody bags for his school friends! ;-)

Riding on a DonkeyHorse

Noah was too young to ride on a real horse but he still got to ride a donkeyhorse! He got a kick out of his short ride. This was in Pigeon Forge,TN.

Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies

We had a fast fly by visit to the Aquarium. Julie was feeling very sick so we didn't get to stay long. Noah and Jeremy still had fun!

Trip to the Mountains

We went to the Smokey Mountains last week. This was Noah's first trip up there. We had a great time even though Julie and Jeremy got sick! Since we went during the week it wasn't very crowded. We took Noah up in the National Park and walked the start of the Appalachian Trail. He loved it! You would think he'd be scared walking along the ridge of a mountain, but nope! He had a little trouble stepping over the logs and rocks on the trail but that didn't stop him. He wore Mommy and Daddy out! When it was time to stop and turn around, Noah wanted to keep going. LOL. He's quite the little Mountain hiker. We love going to the Mountains this time of year. The leaves are always so pretty.
