Your look-alike

Noah,

Daddy and I have been trying to determine who you look like since you were born....and I think we finally figured it out: Your Grandpa Joe! Here's a picture I found of Grandpa when he was 2 months old and one of you at 2 months old. Do you see the resemblence?
Love,
Mommy

First Father's Day!

My Noah,

I haven't written to you in over a month and my how things have changed around here! You are now 15 weeks old and growing so much..the days are getting more and more fun and the nights....well, that's another story! You seem to think it's fun to wake up every night between 1 and 2 am, even though you aren't hungry. Then, around 3 or 4 am you wake up and want to eat. Mommy's tired!


BUT, you don't need to be swaddled anymore and you do use your fists to calm yourself when you wake up (most of the time). You giggle a lot these days..especially when I kiss your chubby cheeks and neck! You also grab things now and bring them to your mouth. You babble a lot and like your jump-a-roo. I think you might be an early talker and walker, look out world!




Father's Day was last Sunday and we took a trip to Columbia to visit Grampa Redders.

You gave Daddy a CD for him to play when you're crying in the car (oh yes, you don't seem to like the car as much these days...are you bored?) and you gave him a journal called Between You and Me Dad. It has questions on each page for him to answer about you, him, and our family. The idea is that someday you'll get it, kind of like this, and learn all about your Daddy! You'll see as you grow up that your Daddy is kind of sensitive (that's one of the things I love about him), so of course he was pretty emotional that day. We are blessed to have you...screaming, smiles, and all!


I love you,


Mommy
