The gadgets continue to arrive

Saturday, June 23rd, 2007

Thanks to his Aunt Sheryl, Noah now has another battery powered device to while away the days in. We assembled the Aquarium Swing today, and tested it out on one very fussy baby. The results? See for yourself…

The many faces of transportation

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

Noah is a baby on the go. Not content to stay home, he has visited several fine local restaurants, made a few trips to consult with his pediatrician, taken some walks around the neighborhood, and met up with some of the local babies at our new mom’s group. Not all modes of transport are created equally, however. As you can see, Noah is a big fan of the hugabub sling, but finds the stroller much more concerning. The carseat (no good photo yet) is equally worrisome, unless the car is moving at a nice clip, preferably on a road without red lights or stop signs.

Two weeks old!

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

This past Saturday, Noah celebrated two weeks on the planet by meeting some of his Sitkoff relatives and having his first bath.  A much cleaner Noah (thanks to his grandmother and aunt) now weighs nine pounds, eight ounces and has found his first best friend – Mr. Bunny.  Mr. Bunny lives suspended above Noah’s bouncy chair, and as you can tell from the photos, is a source of both joy and concern to Noah.  Who is this mysterious bunny?  How did he get up there?  What makes him dance for me?

A week in the life…

Monday, June 11th, 2007
A few more photos of Noah, now 9 days old. He’s starting to be more alert when he’s awake, letting us get a good look at his big hazel eyes. He met his Uncle Nate and Aunt Taryn this weekend and is looking forward to meeting some relatives from his Dad’s side this coming weekend – he’s very content to accept the adoration of everyone who sees him.
