6 1/2 Months!

I'm a bit late in posting this, but Noah is now 6 1/2 months old! He is such a big boy! We are enjoying every minute with him. He's our little bubs, MNB (Mr. No Butt), Lil' Peanut, and Sack of Potatoes... Or as Auntie Jaime just called him this morning... He's a little smushie! :D

Here are the stats from his 6 month well baby visit:
Height: 28 1/2 inches (97%)
Weight: 16 lbs 10 oz (50%)

He did very well with the shots this time. He cried, but as soon as they were done I picked him up and Shawn & I made him giggle. So all was well!

I uploaded his 6 month pictures into the June gallery. Take a peek!

This weekend we are taking him swimming for the first time! He loves his bath so we'll see how he does in slightly cooler water... LOL!

VEGAS BABY!!

Look out Las Vegas! The Turner's are coming! LOL!

Shawn & I head out to Vegas tomorrow for the weekend to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. We are leaving Noah with Grand-mama & Grand-papa (I can't believe I just wrote that Mom... :P). I'm freaking out a little about leaving Noah. Not because of whom I'm leaving him with, but because I've never been without him in the next room overnight. I know I'll be fine once we get on that plane though. At least I'll have Shawn's shoulder to cry on... But we are VERY excited to have a few days off from work! And only have plans on our anniversary and that's it! Otherwise we are just going to get up in the morning and figure out what we want to do that day. So who knows!

Remember... What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas! :D

Hopefully lady luck will be on our side!

Cheers!

Yummy yummy in my tummy!

That's what Noah is saying now! He's one lucky little boy to be getting cereal at such a young age! LOL! We started giving Noah rice cereal this week. And I think he likes it! I'll let the pictures speak for themselves...

Love is a many splendor thing

This past weekend we had my cousin Ellen's wedding. She looked radiant! She was positively glowing with love and happiness! And I have to thank her husband Rob for that. He has truly made her the happiest I have ever seen her. We wish them nothing but the happiest of times in their marriage!

Here are a few pictures...

When you're cool

The sun shines all the time!



'nuff said!

Some things change

What has changed may you ask? Well last night I said goodbye to Crate and Barrel. After 4 1/2 years of working there it was time to say goodbye. It was a hard decision to make, but the thought of not being able to spend time with Shawn and Noah was something I wasn't going to give up. That and the gas prices have gone up so much that it wasn't worth the drive anymore either. So now I have the summer off from a part time gig. Which is great! And for once we don't have every single weekend planned out so now we can decide what we want to do for most of them when we get to it! :) So as much as I will miss my friends/co-workers at Crate, I am going to definitely love being home with my family more.

And just for fun... I was fartin' around in photoshop the other day and decided to have some fun with this picture of Noah...



I got some really good pictures of him on Monday. I'll have them loaded sometime this week!

So Annoyed...

At being sick. We can not seem to get rid of the crud in our house. Shawn has now had it 3 or 4 times since winter started. I've had it 2 times and Noah has had it once. Once again this past weekend we were all out for the count. Well I should correct that statement. Shawn & I were out for the count. Noah still has a bit of a cough, but that's it. So thank goodness for that! So on such a beautiful weekend we were cooped up inside sleeping as much as we could. Woo - Hoo. Not.

So because of the crap we had this last weekend and not being able to get stuff done that we wanted to on Sunday we are adding those items to our list of stuff to do this weekend. At least it's a long weekend! We will also be spending the day on Sunday over at Shawn's parents for a BBQ. Noah will get to meet his great-grandpa & great-grandma Turner for the first time and his great Aunt Kim! So that will be fun! :) I'm also going to try and get to taking 5 1/2 month pictures of the little dude this weekend too. I did buy him a super cute shirt & hat for Memorial Day. Maybe I'll have them taken in that. It is supposed to be nice weather for once on Memorial Day. Our first outdoor photo shoot! :D

One more thing! Shawn took Noah for a little ride on the new John Deere last week when he was Mr.Crabby pants from being sick. He loved it! Even though he looks kind of grumpy in the photos (see May 2008 album), he really did love it. :) I see a John Deere Gator in our son's future!
