7 months old

My sweet angel is 7 months old!!! What the heck?!! 7 months!!! Were has the time gone?!!! My sweet boy has grown and changed so much. At his 6 month check up he was 27 1/2 inches long and 18lbs. He was in the 75% for everything. My little bean of 7lbs is a chunk and growing way to fast! Life before was amazing but life now with Noah is indescribable! Being a mom changes your world for the better! I'm so thankful to my Heavenly Father for letting me be a mom to this sweet little boy. I'm excited to watch him continue to grow but i just wish it would slow down!! I love you Noah and I'm so happy you are apart of my life!
7 Month old photo!!


We had to lower his crib as you can see why.......


I cant get enough of this sweet boy!!


Hes cheesing it up!! (and mommy falls for it every time)

Swim time!!!

I bought Noah a swimming pool because the weather here is already in the 90's and its only April!! I found this cute little swimming pool and he loves it! It was fun to watch him splash around and explore the world of "swimming." I cant wait to take him to the base pool and really get him in the water. He really loves bath time so I'm sure he will love the pool. I cant believe my little man is almost 7 months old! I feel like I just brought him home from the hospital and now hes almost crawling and has his own little personality!!! Time goes by way to fast. I just want to pause time so I can keep him this way a little longer. Every morning I wake up he is already learned something new.
I love his cute little belly!!


I have to say little boys in swim trunks are the cutest!!

Zoo day

We invited a lot of our friends to go to the zoo to see the animals and have a picnic! It was such a blast! I love getting together with friends it makes the pain of not being home with family a lot easier to handle! I'm sorry I didn't get more pictures we were to busy laughing and talking to get a lot of pictures. We did get a few of Noah feeding the giraffes he loved it! He would giggle as the giraffe stuck out his big long tong! Noah is such a sweet blessing!! I know I say that a lot but those of you who have children you know what im talking about;)

Fun in the sun

Life has been good to us lately! Since being back from my moms house the weather has been so amazing! We decided to let Noah try out a swinging at the park like the big kids! End result he loves the park! We try and go very often for him! He also loves to go on walks which is nice for momma to get her exercise. I cant believe my baby is 6 months old! Time flys by way to fast when you have kids. Time has never gone by faster for me. Noah has changed in so many ways: he can say momma, Dada, and hi. Its so sweet to hear him talk. He also is starting to assume the crawl position. Hes does the army crawl and rolls from place to place but other then that no real crawling just yet! We started him on some foods. He loves sweet potatoes, apple sauce, squash, pears, carrots, peas, baby cookies, puffs and that's about all hes had for now! I'm so thankful to my Heavenly Father for loaning me this sweet boy. I'm one lucky moma.
We got this fun toy from our friend Markee and Noah loves it!


Matt having fun at the park!


Noah loves to swing! He is getting tooo big!


Noah and his favorite buddies! I love our neighbors they are the greatest! Noah is always sad when they have to go home! He loves to play with them.

To grandmothers house we go....

It has been so fun hanging out with my family and its so nice to watch them be so in love with Noah. I'm happy to see people just as obsessed with Noah as I am! I love my baby so much and I cant even imagine life without him now. Its so nice Noah has finally gotten on a schedule. It allows me to get things done thought the day and not be in the store trying to calm him cause hes tired. Its so crazy how hard it was in the beginning and how I wasn't sure if I could handle it, but as time went on I realized that with patience and lots of love we could get through it! I love being a mom and especially a stay at home mom theres nothing better! Noah has been so cute playing with grandma and grandpa, I just love watching them. Here is a few pictures I have taken.

Its true my kids a genius he can already skype and type with dad!! I just love these pictures!!







Hanging out with Grandpa. He loves his papa!



Sorry this picture is blurry but I cant believe my child is only 5 months old and he can already grab onto something and pull himself up to stand?!! WHAT THE HECK!! I swear he is going to skip the whole crawling stage and move right to walking. I walked at 8 months old so I guess hes following in my footsteps.

He loves those toes!

I love his many faces

Always playing with his papa

Update..

So much has gone on since I last posted about Noah's baby blessing. My little man is growing up and we are finally getting this whole parenting thing down. Well I guess I don't have it all figured out yet but I'm learning day by day. I'm so lucky to be a stay at home to the worlds most adorable little boy! Noah has taught me so much about patience, unconditional love, and how to just let things be as they are. I never knew how much love a parent truly has for a child. Right now we are in Bozeman visiting my mom and dad! I miss being in Bozeman. I miss mountains, snow, and being around friends and family. For now I will just post pictures of what we have been up to. I cant believe my little man is 5 months old now. Hes changed so much from that little 7 pounder we brought home from the hospital. Life seems to go by to quickly and hes growing to fast. Im just enjoying every minute of being a mom. I cant believe all the things he can do now. He still has not showed any sighns of really crawling but I think he just might walk before he crawls. He can already hold onto things and stand. Its amazing how strong his little legs are! He loves bannanas, sweet potatoes, and peas. I cant believe my baby is growing up!

Long blog so beware....

Whew a lot has happened since Noahs baby blessing we had Thanksgiving, Christmas, and sooo much more! Either way I have pictures so thats always good!

For Christmas we spent it alone just the 3 of us! It was soo nice to spend Noahs first Christmas with just us. We had a great time! It started off with a fun Christmas party with the ward. We were choosen to be Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus! We had so much fun with it! Then Noah got to sit on Santas lap and tell him all the things he wanted! Santa even gave him a candy cane but mommy got to eat that!! We spent Christmas eve vegging out, watching movies, and just having fun together and enjoying Noah. On christmas day we slept in and then opened up our gifts! Later on the day we went over to a friends house for dinner! It was nice not to have to do all the cooking work. Although I do enjoy it! I missed the left overs:( We had such a wonderful time as a family and couldnt have asked for a better Christmas!

Noah has had a lot of fun first's! They include rolling over, snow, visiting a friend in a hospital, and much much more! He is growing way to fast!!
One of his firsts was visitng our neighbor boy in the hospital. He was terribly sick and was in there for a whole week! He got relased christmas day from the hospital just in time to open up preasents! He demanded on stoping by our house first to see Noah before going home!

When Noah was 3 months old we got to hear his giggels! He really started smiling and giggeling a ton! It was so much fun to watch now he is a giggeling smileing happy baby boy!!

Around 3 1/2- 4mon old Noah really started getting active! He rolled over for the first time! He started crawling in circles and now even has the backward motion down! He is growing up to fast and it makes me sad and happy at the same time.

At 4mon he started to get his first tooth!! We still only have one tooth but thats okay! So we went out and got him his first teether and his first big boy toy that he picked out! Shes a cute giraffe named sophie! Sophie is a life saver and absolutly adorable! He loves to chew her feet and face! Its funny! He talks with Sophie and tells her all his secreats!
He also has out growen all his newborn clothes and most of his 3 month clothes:( Noah is so long and starting to thin out a little. He has the strongest legs I have ever seen for a 4 month old! Noahs pediatrican is also surprised on how strong his little legs are! He can stand for a good period of time by just putting your hand on his back! It's crazy to see him just stand there with a hand on his back.
As of latly Noah got very sick:*( He caught RSV and is life threatining in infants 6 mon and younger. It was scary to go through and we are still fighting it now! I feel absolutly horrible for my poor little guy! Its hard to watch him suffer trying to breathe and not be his normal self! He is an excellent patient I have to say though! When he was in the hospital the dr had to keep reminding noah he was sick and that he shouldnt be so smily but loved that he was! He said he was one of the best patients he had ever had! My poor baby is on the mend and hopefully will be well soon!

We are now just counting down the days to till we get to meet grandma, grandpa, auntie brina, and uncle marke!! we are so excited and cant wait! It will be Noahs first plane ride and time away from daddy:( We are very excited to see all of our Montana friends and family though!! Untill then we love and miss you all sooo very much!
