3 Year Stats

We had Noah's 3 year appointment about 1.5 months late (do you see a pattern here?).

Weight: 33.8 lbs (75%)
Height: 39.3 inches (90-95%)

Do these stats even matter anymore? All I know is that I've got about 6.5 more pounds before I have to buy a new car seat.

Random photo - one of his classmate's parents took this at school. Too cure not to share!

Last year we had Noah's 2 year pictures taken in July - 2 months after his birthday. This year, we were 3 months behind schedule. Soon enough we'll be getting his 7 year pictures taken when he's 8.
Here are a few examples of how cute my little boy is. Enjoy!
Don't look at those dirty Cons!

My little fish

This morning, Noah and I headed over to Grinny's house to do a little swimming. He hasn't had swim lessons yet, but I'm trying to take him swimming when I can so that he can get really comfortable in the water. He always starts out petrified to let go of my arm or bathing suit, but after being in the water for a while he loosens up quite a bit. This was the first day he jumped in the pool all by himself! He was so proud...as was I. :)

Conversations with Noah

Me: Let's go downstairs to watch Pinocchio. There's nothing to sit on up here and my legs hurt.
Noah: MY legs don't hurt.
Me: Yeah, well, mommy's old.
Noah: (thinks about this for a moment) I'm not old - I'm new!



Me: If you run in the street and get hit by a car it's going to hurt really bad.
Noah: And then I'll have to put on a lot of Spiderman Band-aids!

Noah's First Ranger Game!

Back in June, Noah went to his first Ranger game. Interestingly, as I write this I just watched the Rangers give up SIX runs to Boston in the top of the 9th. Big surprise - the Rangers choked AGAIN. Anyway, here are some pictures from his first baseball game. We had a great time. (Although I still think baseball is about 4 innings too long.)

This one's for me

Sooo....getting caught up...

I decided that if I was REALLY good and cleaned up my room I would buy myself a toy. So I did. I was sad to say goodbye to my 8 year old Escape which was purchased by a single mother trying to catch a break some woman who buys and sells cars on Craigslist. Too bad for her I knew her little game and actually ended up getting almost $200 more than I really wanted. Take that, scammer!

Anyway, I bought myself a 2007 Infiniti G35 from Sewell Infiniti. Maybe I would have bought it from Crest Infiniti in Plano if the salesman wasn't such a COMPLETE AND TOTAL TOOL.

At the office

My father is in North Carolina for the summer. Luckily, his temporary replacement does the same amount of work for much less money!

Noah's First Movie (and Date!)

So, we didn't have internet at home for NINE DAYS. Yeah, I know! And I actually had stuff I wanted to blog about, so here I go with the first one.
We took Noah to his first movie a couple months ago. I was actually pretty nervous about bringing a (still) 2 year old to the movies, but he was surprisingly good. Noah's date was Jules (who is a movie veteran) and together they saw 'Earth'. It was a fantastic movie, and the kids did great!
Seriously - how cute are they??

Conversations with Noah

On the way home from eating dinner last night

Noah: When we get home I'm going to sleep on the couch. Does that work for you?

His first John Deere

Noah's 3rd birthday gift from Grinny & Grampy (my parents). We're going to get him a real riding mower next so that he can start doing the lawn.
