What's been going on...

Well...I've got a lot to say...as usual..seems to be the trend lately huh?...

So, to kick off this blog entry...I successfully made baby food! Hooray! It was so much fun, with the help of a sweet friend I met here...We managed to make: Sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, green beans, avocados, pears, and squash. We froze them in icecube trays and then bagged them up...and I was so pleased with how much we got out of the food we made!

Noah really enjoys his homemade goodness I assure you!


YAAAY! Daddy time! We got to go for a short visit to where Jon was training! It was wonderful! We had such a great time with our love! Gosh we miss him terribly, and so it was fantastic to see him, even if it was just for a few hours. Jon missed us lots:) We feel so very loved!

Hmmm...Noah updates, well the lil dude is pretty much sitting up on his own. Sometimes I come in his room, and find him in his crib like this...well...check the picture slideshow...
I also bought a great playpen for him (a great suggestion from a friend back home)...He loves it!
Here are some other cutie patootie pics...on the slideshow...since I had too many to post...

His Auntie Aim sent us some way too cute onesies...Jon's fav is the red shirt with the tie..and mine is the puppy dog tails one.
I also think he will no longer have his adorable lil gummy smile soon...I can feel two lil bottom teeth coming...so, any day now our lil man will have teef! Sniff...he's growin up so very fast. He's also moving around like crazy. I put him in the playpen on one end...and when I turn around, he is sitting up on the complete opposite side...Oh he is precious!

Just be prayin for us...this next month is going to be extra tough without Jon!

Hey There! I've been wanting to make my own baby food too. Of course we're still living in a hotel room without a kitchen so once we get into our house (Aug. 5) I plan on doing that. E-mail me what you did. I'm assuming you put everything in the blender with water. Can't wait to find out what you did!

this is sara (sofia's sister). congratulations on having noah! you're a star mamma with all that you do. our baby boys are about the same age. diego was born 1.9.08. how did you make the avocado cubes? i made all of isabella's food but that was already so long ago and i don't remember making avocado trays, but that's not a bad idea b/c it's so good for them. so glad your noah is a good little eater. diego is not enjoying eating solids so much. we'll keep trying. ok, sorry this is so long - but also, keep up the good work and energy on being such a good mom despite your hubby being gone.
