The Art Of Eating Spaghetti!

 Noah loves spaghetti. If I cooked it every day, he would be one happy guy! It is so funny to watch him eat it. Ha. Soo cute!

Noah's 2 year Stats

So yesterday Noah had his 2 year checkup and he is seriously huge. Haha. He weighs 32 pounds putting him in the 82%.. and he is 38 inches tall making him taller than 97% of kids his age! Holy cow! And my mom told me about this old wives tale that says if you double a child's height at age 2 that's how tall they will be as an adult. That would make Noah like 76 inches tall, that's almost 6'4"! Haha we will see how true that is. I can't believe how much he has grown! It's crazy, he is 2 years old.

It's A Boy!

So, we had our ultrasound appointment yesterday and we are having another baby BOY! He is healthy and strong :) Everything looked great (so the tech said, I don't understand how she sees all that stuff on the screen. lol) Anyways, he was so cute and active, his little legs were just kicking away and his mouth was moving, best of all he waved to us. It was pretty stinking adorable. We are so so excited that Noah will have a little brother to play with. I can't wait! I have never dealt with brothers, since I only have one sister, so this will be a whole new experience! I didn't really have any feelings whether the baby would be a boy or girl... but part of me wanted a girl so that I could have one of each and I could buy all girly things, and because this baby is going to be born a cancer.. I really wanted a girl so we could be all emotional and awesome together, but I guess a boy cancer will be awesome as well. Haha. I am glad it's a boy because I have all boy things already and boys are familiar to me now. :) However, I will be totally outnumbered now.. I can only imagine what it's going to be like having 3 boys ganging up on me. I was doing some online shopping this morning and it was all I could do not to buy matching outfits for Noah and his new little brother. :) We are so ecstatic if you can't tell! (warning: this next part might make me sound like a bad mom... )This whole pregnancy I have been so worried that I wouldn't love the new baby at all because I love Noah so incredibly much. Another ridiculous worry of mine has been that everyone will be so in love with the new baby, they will forget all about Noah, and he will be traumatized.  I know, crazy right?! Well, yesterday watching our precious baby on the screen put all those fears to rest. I have enough love in me to love both of my babies. I love this baby boy inside me so so much and I know it will only get better once he is born. I am so blessed to have my babies. I am grateful that the Lord has trusted me with 2 sweet boys.

Happy Birthday Noah!

I still remember just like it was yesterday... it was around 5:30 p.m. on a Wednseday night, I was on the phone with Corinne, when I started having small contractions. I text Trevor and told him I was having little contractions but not to panic. Ha after 2 nights of ZERO sleep and 15 hours hard labor 4 hours of ridiculous pushing e were blessed with our amazing Noah. I remember most of it so vividly. (Trev says I remember a totally different version than him.. he says I was dinosaur-like, but that's a whole different story. lol)

Soo when did my baby go from this...

[2 weeks old]

to this huge 2 year old???? 

[23 months, about a month before turning 2]

How did TWO WHOLE YEARS fly by without me knowing it?! I am seriously in shock.
Noah, you have changed so so much in the last 2 years. You are simply amazing. Daddy and I cannot get enough of you. You are our whole world. From the moment you were born, it was like the world shifted and we had this amazing piece of Heaven in our arms. I can't believe you are 2! Everyone says that kids grow up too fast... and boy is it true! I have been having mini meltdowns for about 2 weeks thinking that you would be 2 years old! Daddy and I were just reminiscing the other day about how big you have gotten and how you used to be so tiny you fit right in daddy's arm, your head in his palm and your feet tucked right into his elbow... and now you are half the size of me! We have loved watching you grow and learn new things. And I cannot wait for the next few years (although I wouldn't mind if time slowed down just a bit) you are getting more and more fun each day and continue to amaze us. I never knew how much love I had in my heart for someone until you. It blows me away how strong that bond is. Daddy said to me the other day, "I never knew I was going to love him so much. I didn't know I could love someone so much." We both are just amazed at you and how you have changed our lives for the better. You will always, always be my little baby boy. I hope I will always remember you at this age. It is so incredibly fun. Happy Happy Birthday Noah Boy! I love you!
