Noah is quite the character. He can be quiet and sweet one minute while screaming and stomping his feet in protest a moment later.
Here are a few tidbits about our little man:
1) He loves things that move: Planes, cars, bikes, motorcycles, scooters, trains
2) He hates to be IN the things that move: Not a fan of flying and the only way to get him to sit in his car seat is with bribes.
3) His favorite new game is pointing out all the things that move: If we don’t acknowledge that he’s seen a plane, when he announces it, he isn’t too happy with us.
4) He still loves to vacuum, though took a couple week vacation from the daily “vah” while we were in Miami for the holidays. Back at it again in Chicago.
5) His language has exploded. He now strings together 3-4 words regularly. It still takes a patient mommy or daddy to translate.
6) His has two volumes. Silent and loud. He refuses to say yes, other than to nod his head. But, you will certainly know when he wants or doesn’t want something.
7) His pronunciation is a work in progress. ”Gog gog” for dog. ”Dri” for drive.
8) His favorite word is “gigi” and “my turn”.
9) His favorite sentence is “help me”.
10) His favorite food is “lalo” which we give him credit for coining. We have discovered it as an incredibly convenient way to refer to squeezable fruit snacks.
11) His favorite dessert is “ot ot cake”, which includes cakes, cookies and ice cream.
12) He’s coined a few other words but we still haven’t figured out what they mean.
13) His favorite show is anything with trains, but mostly Thomas. ”Mmm mmm train” is what he calls trains.
14) He is turning into quite the athlete. He has boundless energy for “baseball” (any game with a ball) and until recently refused daddy’s shoulders, instead demanding to “run”.
15) He still has blue eyes and sandy hair. And, he uses his good looks and charm to flirt with the ladies. He’s perfected the shy game.
In short, he’s deliciously cute.
