Noah just celebrated his 11 month birthday and is now preparing for the big ONE (oh how time flies). Mom has just finished the invites and will be sending them out first thing Monday. We would love for everyone to celebrate with us, if you happen to not get the invite please let us know (we may just not have your address).
Noah hasn't had a doctors appointment in a while so we're not sure on his progress with weight gain, but he has quite the appetite and eats just about anything you put in front of him. We still don't have any teeth but his tongue is constantly hanging out or licking at his gums, and with all the heavy drooling we're expecting them to poak though any day now. His next check up is a few days after his first birthday and we're very curious to see how much he has grown. In the mean time here are some of his other updates:
Noah's daily routine usually starts at by 7:00am (giving dad some time before he heads off for work), then he watched Sesame Street while mom makes breakfast, we eat and play for about 30 minutes and then it's nap time by 8:30am. Our naps are usually 2 hours long. Then around 10:30am we are up and ready to learn and play. This is when Noah is most active so mom takes advantage of the time by getting out to see new things. Around 1:30pm Noah is ready for lunch and his second nap. By 3:30 we're awake and ready to be on the move, this is when we practice crawling/walking and following mom around the house as she picks up and gets dinner ready. At 7:00pm, shortly after dad gets home, it's bed time.
Noah has perfected waving hi and bye (although these days it's shortly after people stopped waving). He knows how to high five, blow kisses, dance when told (even when there's no music), shake anything he is or is not holding, bounce, talk on the phone (he puts his hand to his ear, too cute). He also points out the window if you ask him where the airplane is, or at Kris' picture if you ask him where dad is. He attempts to say "all done" when he's done eating. Noah doesn't enjoy crawling the conventional way. You will usually see him rolling in the general direction he wants to go then belly crawling to get repositioned. His preferred method of getting around is walking, but he still needs a lot of help. Just yesterday though, he made his way all around our coffee table, to the couch, to the side table and the to the recliner without falling or needing any guidance (other than mom getting on her hands and knees and saying, "I'm going to get you!").
Here are a few pictures of his adventurous journey
