My Birthday Boy

It's happened. My baby boy has turned one and is quickly becoming a toddler. Tissue, please? We celebrated with having just family over and Noah's best bud, Malachi. We had a BBQ and went to the park and then ate carrot cupcakes while Skyping with Nana and Papa in Guatemala. For those who like to know these details; Noah stats are 23.4 pounds (60%), 30.5 inches (75%) and his head is 48.5cm (95%)- lots of brains. The first picture is a year ago- look at how he has grown.

Just for fun

Noah got a package in the mail for his birthday. He was so excited to scoot it around the house and sit on top of it. He was the king of his soapbox.

So... what's going on with us?

It's been so long since I have logged on to this blog that I forgot the password and it took me a few times to log in. So... what's up with us? It's been almost 2 months. I don't think I've ever gone that long without blogging. We've been doing the usual. Alan still working for SCI (safer cities iniative) out of the Mission Division and truly enjoying it. Ministry opportunities everywhere. I'm taking care of Noah, working a few days a week and doing a few Bible Studies. One is actually a class offered through our church that is a Spiritual Care training. It has been a lot of fun and I've gotten so much out of it, not just on how to counsel others but for myself. Another is with some ladies in our Bible Fellowship group on the book, Respectable Sins by Jerry Bridges and it's really good. I highly recommend reading the book- you'll learn so much about yourself that goes by without seeing.

Noah is adorable as usual and is more fun than ever. I don't think I have taken any pictures of him since Christmas. What a horrible mom I am! :) He still has just 2 bottom teeth which I think is soo cute. He's not walking on his own quite yet but probably soon. He's obssessed with buttons right now- the TV, space heater, printer and fax machine. Anything that has a button, he's there pushing it. He loves to go on walks and runs with me in the paseos and playing in his pack n play in the backyard. He's definitely an outdoor kid. When he needs calming down I just take him outside for a few minutes. He still tries to befriend Roxy but she wants nothing to do with him. However, he does terrorize her by putting his toys in her water bowl or pull blankets out from underneath her.

We are getting ready to be a guardian home for a golden retriever puppy that our friend, Julie needs a home for. We are all excited and are looking forward to the puppy's arrival. Noah is going to have so much fun with her. Any name suggestions??? We need some, so please send your suggestions our way.

We'll that's it for now. Noah is eating my grocery receipts so I'll post pictures later when I take some.
