Noah's First Christmas

You have to hold him up to see

The angel on the Christmas tree.

And even though he's still too small

To know the meaning of it all

You watch his eyes reflect the glow

Of colored lights that come and go

And feel him quiver with delight

At every new and wondrous sight.

 

There's Santa with his jolly face

Beaming from the fireplace.

And from the stocking hanging there

Peeks a cuddly teddy bear.

Bright ornaments and candy canes

Musical toys and wooden trains

There's just no end to the delights

Spread out for him this night of nights!

He points and grins from ear to ear

And then he yawns - his bedtime's near!

Dad gives him a kiss and you tuck him away

To rest up for the fun of his first Christmas Day!

 

Noah's first Christmas was so special to us. Although we missed spending it with family, Josh and I made sure Noah's first Christmas was a good one. He may not remember the lights, toys, stockings and things, but Josh and I will always cherish every moment and every smile. Merry Christmas Noah, may every Christmas fill your heart with love, happiness and joyful memories. Mommy and Daddy love you so much!

Not sure how this thing works :)

On December 22nd, Noah turned 5 months old!!!! Someone tell my baby to stop growing! 

 Noah has started to eat solid food.  Some of his favorites are green beans, sweet corn, applesauce and anything with bananas in it.  He is loving books right now and will get very loud as if he is reading to you. Noah also enjoys anything that makes a crunchy noise, watching his Daddy play video games, bath time, petting Kalli and smiling in a mirror. He has found his voice... and loves to test how loud his vocals can be. He will definitely let you know when he wants or doesn't want something. Unfortunately for Mom and Dad his favorite show right now is Barney the Dinosaur (see video above). Noah is also attempting to crawl everyday, he can get his butt up into the air... but is still working on knowing what to do with his arms.
