Noahism

I was nursing Brenna the other day and Noah said he wanted to feed her.  I told him that I have to feed her because she eats milk from my boobies. He thought about it for a minute and stated “I want to feed Brenna with my BIG nipples.  My BIG LOOOONG nipples.”  Hmmmm… Thanks, Dude.

The other day Noah lifted up my skirt , looked at my butt and said "Mommy, what happened?". Me: "You and your sister happened, buddy." 

It was worth it, right???

While driving by a stinky oil refinery, Noah covered his face and said “I’ve got poop in my nose!”

We took Noah to a baseball game a few months ago.  Not only did he have a blast playing on the playground, watching and yelling at the game and eating all the food his little belly could handle, he picked up a new saying.

For weeks after going to the game Noah would walk around and yell “COLD BEER!”

The Other Reason Not to Kiss Your Sister

Noah is such a great big brother to Brenna.  He absolutely adores her.  Sometimes a little too much.  A few days ago Brenna was sitting in her bouncy chair just relaxing when Noah came up to her and laid down on her and planted a huge kiss on her lips.  Little B is in the making bubbles stage so when Noah sat up they were still connected by a 6 inch string of drool.  Think Lady and the Tramp spaghetti scene but with drool and your sibling.

The Other Reason Not to Kiss Your Sister

And We Are Back... Hopefully

I have really been slacking when it comes to my blog lately.  You would never know by looking at this that we now have a complete family.  Brenna Kate was born June 1^st at 11:59 am (I can’t believe she is 4 ½ months old already!!!).  Our princess was 6lb 9oz and 18 inches long.  She has been an amazing baby.  She is so happy and smart and loving.  She loves to sleep and smile and swing.  Brenna has been turning over both ways for a few weeks now and has recently found her feet.  Her toes are her favorite toys to play with and suck on. She just recently started solid foods! Every day, as with all babies, is a new adventure.  She is learning things so quick and changing from day to day.  I LOVE THIS STAGE (but I loved and still love all the stages Noah went through).  Adjusting to two kids has been both easy and a challenge.  Noah is amazing with her and is so proud to be her big brother.  It took a few weeks to adjust to the new way of life but he has done a great job figuring out his role with her.  The first two weeks of Brenna’s’ life was spent at my parents’ house.  Poor Noah was super sick and instead of having her around his germs B and I went to my parents’ house while Hunter and Noah bunkered down at ours.  You can imagine how I handled it with all my post-partum hormones.  I probably cried for the first 5 days of it.  Then I realized I had a newborn that loved to sleep and a sick preschooler who didn’t.  Poor Hunter.  :-)  After the 2 weeks, it was so great to finally have our family together…for 6 hours.  Hunter got sick the day we got came home and he moved to my parents for a week.  It was a rough first month, but we all survived with just a few battle wounds.  Since then we have really found our grove.  I have been taking pictures and some day when I learn to edit them I will get them up here.  That is actually my goal by the end of the year.  There has been so much going on that I want to document.  Soccer, birthday parties, school, tons of Brenna’s firsts… the list goes on and on.
