This girl absolutely LOVES her Daddy! Mommy is the one in charge of all the boring things and Daddy is the one who has cool sound effects and just wants to play all the time. How can you compete with that? Here are some sweet videos of Russ' sound effects and Noa's giggling, which they both do quite often.

Let's try Cereal
I'm trying to get this stupid thing to download some videos, but it is having problems again. I have about a million to put on here but always run into problems. Sorry grandmas!!
This was a monumental week! We tried rice cereal for the first time!! I think she liked it. She definitely didn't know what to do with it, but she kept grabbing the spoon for more. I don't think we're going to have any problems with eating...
And, of course this is what follows. Noa got Russ bad!! We will be so excited when proper digestion is a part of her life.
On a sad/panicked note, the exersaucer is becoming Noa's enemy. For some reason she is starting to grunt and whine at all the animals when she gets in there - like they have some unfinished business or something. We have no idea what this could possibly be, but she seems to get the most frustrated when she can't pull them up out of their stations (for lack of a better word). This is especially troubling because exersaucer is really spelled F-R-E-E-D-O-M. We'll have to find something else quick!
By the way... I couldn't figure out what this animal was for the longest time. Was it a duck? A dog with wings? A bear? A duck with a dog/bear's face? Finally we figured out that it is a SEAL. Of course!

Getaway!
Russ and I were able to get away last week-end for a night in Charlotte, NC. We left Noa with Bruce and Linda and just got to enjoy each other's company without having to worry about a baby. What a nice break! We were definitely ready to see the sweet girl when we got back though...
Here we are downtown. Our hotel had a great view of the city and we were able to walk around a little bit on Friday night.
We ended up going to this restaurant and it was great, they just took FOREVER! I could've made the meal myself in the time it took them to give us our bread. Here's Russ waiting for bread. :)
The next day we ate at California Pizza House (or something like that) - Yummy!!
And we went the mall. Am I missing out on the latest trend in make-up? These girls were everywhere - kind of scary.
Our hotel was overrun with East Carolina and Virginia Tech fans. We had to wait forever to eat breakfast and we were surrounded by a sea of marron and orange and purple and gold fans. They were quite a group too - very country. Check out this lady's hair...and outfit...and purse...and anklet...it is worth enlarging the photo...

Running away with the circus
We just spent the best $25 of our lives at the second hand store. Noa has really been wanting to stand on her legs, so we thought it was time for an exersaucer. These things are so bulky and ugly, but so worth it when your arms are tired. Ours has a circus theme and plays this annoying music, but Noa loves it. She was so busy studying everything, I could hardly get her to look up for a picture.
Sunday Best
We love to dress Noa up on Sundays. Unfortunately she usually has to be changed with-in 15 minutes of arriving at church because she has spit-up on the pretty outfit we were so excited to see. This one is from Grandma Roberts. What a cutie!
Bath Time!
Noa still LOVES taking a bath. She can be in the worst mood and as soon as she gets in the tub she's a happy girl.
