Mama's Classroom

Noah loves coming to school with me every morning.  He hangs out in my classroom while I try to get everything ready for the upcoming day and then we walk down the hall to his classroom when the bell rings.

One of his most favorite things in my room are my Big Books.  He gets such a kick out of reading them!

Bath Boy

Noah has recently discovered laying on his tummy in the bath.  For a little boy who used to have a trach...this is pretty HUGE!

 

He also loves to paint with colored shaving cream.  Perhaps a Monet in the making...

  

Lately, Bubs has taken to running around with his hoodie towel on after getting out of the bath.  He likes to pretend he is Superman...but I think he's more like a streaker!

School Pictures

Noah had his very first "school pictures" a few weeks ago.  It is funny the things that are so important to you as a parent.  Bubs taking school pictures was just a huge milestone.  It is something that I experience with my first graders every year and knowing that my Little Man was taking his...well...it was just huge.

We practiced smiling for the camera and putting his hands on the "gate" a few days prior.  One more practice that morning {Squirt had to get in on the action}...

and here's his actual photo.  Isn't he just the cutest!!!

Cuteness

Here are some cute photos Kc took on his iPhone.

Noah loves to play with his Cookie Monster Play-Doh letter making set that he got it from Cuz Hunter and Cuz Brooklyn for Christmas.  Bubs gets a kick out of "feeding" Cookie the letters he makes out of Play-Doh and watching them come out the back.  He called them "poop" one day and I just about fell off my chair laughing so hard.

Sucking the salt off crackers is much better while wearing Mama's sunglasses.

Noah was wearing his own shades and playing with a humpback whale...of course.

Outside

Noah absolutely LOVES playing outside.  If he could, he would spend all day in Nana and Pop-Ro's backyard.

There are so many places to explore,

so much digging to do,

 

and so many friends to play with.

While at the zoo {we're there at least every other week}, Mr. Man enjoys dinging at the Dino Dig and

crawling on the turtle shells.

Bubs especially loves playing outside at our local park.
