Just monkeying around on halloween

Just some fun pictures of our little monkey.

Mommy was making fun of my tail!
I still have more hair than my pumpkin!

And a few more, with comments from Noah himself....

"Getting dressed is so much fun!"

"Oh no....someone took the last milky way!!!"

I had the best first trick or treat!

Outdoor fun

This was written Sunday 10/29....sorry for the delay. Noah wrote most of it himself...

We all had so much fun this weekend! It was a little cold and windy, but my mommy and daddy dressed me up warm and we did some fun things. I went back to home depot today...I'm becoming a bit of a regular. Then I went to the card store, and then to the grinder store! Then I went back (again!) to the Acme supermarket. Mommy says that when I walk into the Acme, everyone shouts "NORM!"

When we got home, we went outside and walked around, then we took a pictue of our family...see the 3 of us out in the yard?

I had the best time with mommy....we went out for a little walk and stayed nice and warm:


And look...right outside in the yard I made a new friend!

I get stronger every day. Soon I hope to be taking swimming lessons! But for now, I'm holding my head high without any problems!

Halloween is in a couple days....everyone keep checking back. Maybe I'll put some of my halloween pictures on my blog!

Love, Noah.

Another week goes by....

Another week has passed. Noah is now 2 1/2 months old. We can't get over how fast he is growing and changing. He went to see Dr. Allen this week. He weighed 11 lb 15 oz (after 2 big poops, so this was really his "dry weight"!). He is 23 inches, and in the 40th percentile of height and weight! No wonder he looks like this.... What a day it was. Noah got 4 shots, 2 in each leg (DTP, combovax (HepB, Hib)), Polio, pneumovax) and oral rotovirus vaccine...It clearly was harder on his mom and dad. He was such a good boy through it all.

Noah spends alot of time lounging around. One of his favorite things is to hang out in mommy and daddy's room and watch mommy fold laundry.....

Noah is starting to smile more and more, though we can't always catch it on camera. But he's got a real personality....here he greets his daddy coming home from work

Here he explains to his mommy that he is still hungry and would she PLEASE let him keep eating...

His new favorite thing is to hang out in his swing. He absolutely loves it. This is what he looks like after 10 minutes in his swing! We also went to Toys R Us yesterday, and Noah wants to introduce everyone to his new little friend (the guy insisted on gettiing in on the pictures!).

Today is Sunday, and you all know what Sunday is in the Porter house...FOOTBALL! You can see here that daddy and Noah spent a good part of the afternoon watching football!

The big news this week is that we hired a nanny, instead of taking Noah to the K'tonton day care. At least for now, it made much more sense. Noah's nanny (not to be confused with Nanny) is named Nicole, and they get along great already.

Keep checking in on us. We already have the next blog in the works for the next day or two!
