Away from home

Well...David's writing this all on his own, with no editing from Kathy, and no input from Noah. So it is likely to have lots of errors, and be less exciting. But I'm "blogging" from Bethesda, and this is my first night away from Noah. Maybe he doesn't do too much yet, but I really miss him (and Kathy). Kathy tells me he's lifting and turning his head to look for his toys (she's moved them from side to side). I miss being there.

But I know Noah has good company. Kathy is with him, and he has Ellery Elephant looking out for him as well.

Noah is growing! He is 10.2 lbs as of last night before his bath! We got out the charts, and he's approaching the 50% mark. And we were worried he was so thin when he was born! Remember when you could barely see him sitting in his car seat???? He's almost ready to sit behind the wheel!
We think he's ALMOST ready to start smiling. His Grammy was visiting last week, and we couldn't be sure, but looks like a smile to us!


He's growing, almost smiling, and getting really smart and interactive. Wednesday, we watched the Yankees beat the Tigers. When Jeter hit a home run for his fifth hit, Noah turned to me and gave me double "taters" (you know...the modern day equivelent of the "high five") .

And Kathy's been walking him through Swarthmore college. Yesterday, she asked out loud, "who wants to go for a walk". I was busy, but Noah very politely just raised his hand.







The Yankees lost today, the Mets are winning, and Noah and his mommy, hopefully are sleeping soundly.
