This little piggy...

It was a gorgeous day yesterday (just for my birthday!) so we spent it outside with babcia :) While Paul was napping on the swing and babcia soaking up the sun on the chair, Noah decided to explore the yard thoroughly and all by himself. We should have known that he was up to something because he was being suspiciously quiet but we were also enjoying our time so noone really noticed what Mr. Noah was up to! This is what i have found when i came closer :)

Oh Hey mommy...just hanging out here...no big deal.

Is daddy coming as well???

My little Vinetoo :)




This is the best entertainment for this little guy. Forget about toy crap!My boy is born to be wild! Literally :)




Yeah FUN!

It's show time!!!

On Saturday (the day before my birthday) we went to the circus in Phillips Arena. This was Noah's first time visit to the circus and all i can say is that he did great! He was mesmerized by all the things that were happening at the same time, all the lights blinking in the background, the music and of course the animals. Oh the animals :(( This was probably my last visit to the circus. I can't remember when was the last time i saw the circus but it was a LONG time ago. I love animals and I haven't really thought about it (before i came up with the idea to see the show)that these poor animals are going through a lot of suffering trying to train for our 5 minutes fun time where we can see them doing all these great tricks that were forced upon them. Definitely not my thing and definitely not worth it! Anyways, we had a great time mostly seeing Noah having such a blast! Here are couple of shots i took during the show:

Noah with daddy watching at the beginning of the show...Noah's face says it all :)

Noah and babcia :))

Noah's funny faces!!

Just recently Noah started to make quite a few funny faces. When he is hungry he will open his mouth really wide to signalize that we need to feed him. When he is thirsty he will do the same. This is quite hilarious to watch him do this now ALL the time :))
I have been trying to take some snapshots of him actually doing the faces but i never had my camera close by. Today as soon as Noah started to make his funny faces I run and grabbed my camera (unfortunately ended up with some unfocused pictures... but you will get the point anyway). I LOVE it! He also makes some evil, funny faces like when he is not supposed to grab Lilly and Josh's faces and he will do just that because he knows he is not supposed to :) Ah my little pistol what are we going to do with you?



Noah bugging the heck out of Josh :)

Getting on Lilly's nerves :)

Oh but how can you resist this face??


Noah has also recently started to enjoy reading books with me and babcia. I thought he will never be able to sit still for more than couple seconds to read a book but he is actually getting better at it. He really likes looking at different pictures (especially if there are different animals in the book) and as long as you keep telling him a story using a deeply exaggerated tone, he can sit still for quite a while now:)) Way to go Noah! I can't wait to read a real bedtime story to you!

Snow Time!!!

I can't believe it but we have actually gotten some snow in Georgia today :)) It will probably be all melted by tomorrow but we just tried to enjoy this magical day and had some fun in the snow! Noah didn't really know what to think about it but i think he liked it (he wanted to be outside the whole time :). The only problem was that he didn't have proper shoes and gloves :( He had to borrow mine and on our third round of snow fun, Noah end up wearing my socks :)Oh well- it worked! I hope there is some snow left for tomorrow so we can go out again and run around in the snow with puppies. About babcia--It was not even worth trouble to try getting babcia out of the house today :) She can't stand the cold and the snow, besides she also has a little cold so it was best for her to stay in while me and Noah explored the white powder outside!!

Noah really puzzled by the snow...as seen in his face expression.



Noah was so funny with all this snow- he was afraid to walk on it :) Or maybe he just wasn't into wearing mommy's oversized gloves :)

What in the world did you put on me mommy??


Getting a little red nose!

Valentine's session number 2!!

So we had a Valentine's session number 2 today!!! So much fun!!! It so happened that Noah was also in a really good mood for the shoot and that helped out a lot (ok so he got a lollipop but nonetheless he was in a splendid mood today). The lollipop helped quite a bit though, since Noah never gets to eat sweets (I swear it's for the better honey :))Anyways, me and babcia had an awesome morning shooting Noah - the Valentine!!! Here is just a sneak peak from our session:



My little price charming!!!




Oh don't ever grow up Noah!!! :))

Pre Valentine Shoot!

I want to share couple of pictures i took of Noah in a Valentine mood. This is just the beginning...more Valentine shots will follow :)I love to play with different ideas and boy i have a lot of them lately...just not enough time to organize a session and edit the pictures. Unfortunately with the weather being so lousy lately, we can't even venture outside. It's been cold and rainy so we have been cooped up in the house for the last couple weeks or so...and what better way is to kill a time than to take more pictures :)))

My Sweet little Valentine :)



Oh how i love these sweet feet :)

Noah in a newborn hat :))

I want to add a few more pictures of Noah from tonight. However i have to admit that these are not too good :) They were taken in the evening, no flash light, lots of weird shadows...on a top of that they are also not in good focus :) What can i say, Noah was moving all over the place and he was not crazy about wearing a tight hat :) However, I do like them (especially the first one) and I want Noah to see them one of these days :) He looked so cute in this small, newborn hat :)I wish i took more pictures like that when he was a newborn :(((

Noah's 15 months check up

Can't believe Noah is already 15 months old :) We went in today for his 15 months check-up and the doctor confirmed that Noah is perfectly healthy with the exception of being a real pistol (busy times ahead of me). Anyways, Noah is growing just right. She is currently weighing at 26 lbs. 6 oz (75%) and is 34 inches long (90%). The doctor said that his hair circ. is 47 and a quarter of cm. Also Noah is right on track developmentally and we are very grateful to have such a strong and healthy little guy :)
