Life with an Almost Two Year Old

Noah has been getting stickers for peeing in the potty.  We are on day 3 of all pees while awake at home in the potty!  Now if only he'd go at daycare, too!

Noah wanted to take pictures of his room, so here you go!

Up close and personal with Elephant John.

Some hand me down shoes that he's in love with.  What you can't see is that this is all he's wearing!

And some videos...

His favorite song.

Singing "I've Been Working on the Railroad"

Singing "Alleluia" from church.

Early Birthday Gift!

Fun with Cousin Connor

Connor's parents had a wedding to go to, so Noah had a friend to play with for a few hours on Saturday.  We talked about it all week and Noah was worried about having a visitor because he didn't want to share his toys.  By Friday, he had decided that Connor could play with his trucks, but not his jeep or trains.  Such a silly kid!  Once Connor arrived, there was only a little posessiveness on Noah's part and they had a great time!

Noah does not look too thrilled in this picture.

Connor was having a blast!

Noah was being goofy.

And then Connor sat on Noah.  Really, he scooted Noah out of the bike seat, but according to Noah, Connor sat on him.  This happened multiple times and Noah wasn't really sure of what to do!

Mom?  Help?

Victor and Olivia were happy to have them both napping at the same time for about 1.5 hours!

After naps, it was time to play outside.

Peek-a-boo!

Such fun!

Two inquisitive toddler boys.

Silly Sleepy Boy

Went in to check on Noah last night and this is what I found...

Yes, these videos are just black

The sound is hillarious though!  These are videos of Noah playing with has Courious George doll in his car seat while driving home late on Sunday night.  The nonstop chatter is how he manages to keep himself from falling asleep even though he's up 1.5 hours past his bedtime.

Even stuffed monkeys need their diapers changed.

He's reliving the experience of falling in the lake at the Little Farm a few weeks ago.

Hiking in Round Valley

We took advantage of a ridiculously beautiful February weekend and went for a hike in Round Valley Regional Preserve.  It's on the back side of Mount Diablo and was just gorgeous!  The last time we went to Round Valley, Noah was a teeny tiny 6 week old!

So excited to wear his backpack again!

Really, it's just the straw that he likes, not the pack.

And very shortly he decided that he was done wearing the backpack.

There are cows all over the place here!

At our lunch stop to take a few pictures.

Ta Da!!!

Ta Daaaaa!!!

A little dance move here.

Couldn't decide which drink straw was better (they were both just water).

Smooshing his face on Olivia's back.  Yes, he's odd.

So happy!!

We kept seeing coyotes.  I'm pretty sure there were just 3 that we saw over and over again.

Noah kept holding Olivia's ponytail and saying it was soooooo soft.  Silly kid!
