Belated Birthday Post....I'm so behind!

We finally had his party last weekend. And it's almost the weekend and I am just posting pictures - not a good sign. I did get them on Facebook right away; it's just easier sometimes.

He loved the cake.... acted a little wierd for a few hours after his nap, but then snapped out of it; well worth the fun. He is growing up so fast it seems, but I don't see him as much during the week now, so it may be my skewed perspective. He is walking here and there - not everywhere or all of the time yet. Regardless it was wonderful when he walked to me when I picked him up at 'school' - he is still so small, not even 19 pounds yet and hasn't gained anything in a month - he's moving so much and although he eats pretty well, he can't keep up with the amount he is burning up...He has gotten a little taller I believe. He is talking alot, taking a sippy cup more (except mornings), drinks milk and usually eats the stuff we eat. he has 7 teeth, just got another upper tooth this week - I think... He loves the animals, is very social and smiles more often than not. He is taking more time with strangers - I like that most of the time. The only thing he seems to hate is diaper and clothing changes - can't stop moving long enough. He can be really focused for a kid that is busy. He got the chance to tour the toddler room the other day - he had a great time I guess! Sprayed the teacher that isn't used to him and got a little overwhelmed when things were a little crazy, but wasn't shy about the change at all. He is ready to go whenever they have room (in my humble opinion) - he likes to be with the bigger kids and he isn't very gentle with the little ones so it might benefit everyone if he moves up. He is adventurous like crazy and managed to take another header off the bed - this time he was intent on a toy and just forgot to turn around - funny, yet not so much...Tantrums are the new normal, we are pretty good at ignoring them - we'll see how that continues. Not too much more.... Just a little Noah in a nutshell!!!
