Play Group

We have a weekly play group that we're part of. It started when we moved back to Boston this past summer with just me and Sam. Over the past months, we've added lots of friends. Here's a picture from play group today. Tyler (6 months) was napping during the picture. The crazy part is that we have at least 3 other kids that sometimes attend, so if we ever have a play group where everyone shows up there'd be trouble.

Amalia & Lily (6 wks), Anna (8 1/2 wks), Katie (7 months), Cecily & Brenna (8 months), Noah (21 months) and Sam (2 1/2 years)

Look Alike Meter

Although according to this site, Noah is a perfect blend, I look just a bit more like mummy. At 4% though, I guess I'm a pretty perfect blend too.

Eating Contest

We had my friend Timmy and his parents over for dinner. We had a special cookie and ice cream treat that Timmy and I both enjoyed - down to the last drop.

Smiling

I have so much fun just spending time with my Mummy and Daddy.

Extra Padding

I have a bag of foam blocks that I like to play with. However, I don't particularily like building with them. What I do however like to do lately is "Go Fast" wherever I go, so Mummy and I decided some extra padding would be a good use of my blocks.

Sitting

Don't get too excited, I'm not actually really sitting yet, but if I'm leaning against a chair I actually manage pretty well. Today we had play group and my friend, Lily, came to play. Lily is 2 1/2 weeks younger then me, but is just a peanut in comparison as you can see. Once Noah realized that all the photo action was in the chair, he jumped right in as you know he loves the camera.

Something to Smile About

I've been busy practicing my smiling and cooing for mummy & daddy and they finally took pictures to prove it. I'm a big fan of my Wally mobile and daddy's not so bad either.

Booster Seat

I've been spending a lot of time in my booster seat lately. That is partly because I've figured out how to climb in an out of it, but also because mummy and I have been doing lots of fun things. Here are a few pictures of the fun we've been having making banana bread and playing with Play Doh.

Diaper Genie

The other day, after mummy changed the bag for my Diaper Genie, I had lots of fun with the ring. As you'll see, it's a good way to solo practice for the 3-legged race.

Smiths

Jeff & Allison Smith, friends from Illinois, came to visit recently. They were in the area for an event in Maine and made sure to have a few extra days to see us. It was a great visit and fun was had by all.

Family Time

During our family walk, Noah got to ride his bike and he just loved it!

It was a beautiful weekend, so we went for a family walk. I was totally chillin'.

Family Photo - it's our first family photo since our hospital pic

Mummy, daddy and I celebrating Park Street Church's 200th anniversary

There's been lots of family time lately as we all get to know each other. Here are a few pics from the past few weeks.......

17

What a difference 17 months makes! The first picture is of me and Grandpa A recently (I'm 20 months old) and the next is of us when I was just 3 months old. I am imagining with time Grandpa's not going to want me on his shoulders, but I'm sure we'll figure something out.

Grandpa & Janice

As our visitors continue, Grandpa A and Janice were in town. We had lots of fun hanging out and Grandpa taught Noah about mustaches and the wonders of being tickled until you can't stand it; he was much more gentle with me.

Double Love

With 2 under 2, life is all about the double stroller. I don't think anyone would tangle with us and our chariot.
