Noah decorated his first Christmas cookies, he had a great time, especially when he figured out that the sprinkles were edible. He had a nasty brown smear all over his face from the mix of melted green and red sugar. He would grab some red sprinkles and say "ed" and then grab the green ones and say "reen." He's fixated on colors these days.
Noah was playing with Pops' hat in the waiting room at the hospital, I just thought these were cute pics!
More bathtime fun!
Noah is learning his letters now, he probably knows about half of them. He knows the numbers 1-10 and the basic colors (red, yellow, blue, green, purple, orange, pink, and black) and the basic shapes(circles, squares, stars, hearts, triangles, rectangles...). We had his 18 month appointment a little while back and he has met all his milestones and is doing great, but we already knew that! He has the concepts of "off/on" and "in/out" down pat and he is starting to say "no" and "yes" when we ask him questions, so that's nice, we don't always have to guess what he wants. My favorite new word he is saying is "bulldoze" for "bulldozer." It's adorable. He loves construction vehicles and buses. Noah still loves to read, hooray!!! He can repeat just about any word we say now, which is fun, but we have to be careful! He said a 3 word combo the other day, "mama, up please" so that's cool!
Bulldoze!!!
Noah kept on handing all of his vehicles to Ryan to hold, it made us laugh.
The anticipation was killing him, lol. Hurry up Daddy!
Don't worry, it's not all play and no work around here, Noah got in some time on his new laptop.
Noah relaxin' on the couch, eatin' mix and watching a movie, a nice end to Christmas :)
Noah LOVES "mix" that his Great-Grandma Dieker makes
After Noah heard me say that the sprinkles were edible he started to chow down. I thought these pics of him on a crazy sugar binge were cute!
Decorating nicely before he started eating the sprinkles.
Noah got to "help" make the cookies..
Doesn't he look like a big kid in this picture? He's growing up WAY too fast!
We took Noah to Union Station to see the trains, he was so interested in them, and he held on tight to his "big bus" the whole time.

Chillaxin' with Dad
Working on his laptop in his Cozy-Coupe tent.
He got the hang of opening presents really quickly.
Our little drummer boy
After Ryan forced him into his Cozy Coupe, he had a great time!!

This is about the only good pic we got of him in Wichita, our camera batteries died, but doesn't he look adorable in the fireman hat? 
Jo and Pops have this "interesting" cement deer statue at their house. It came with the house and is cemented in there, so it's going to take some serious effort to get it out, but in the meantime, Noah loves to "ride" the deer. 
Noah gets a kick out of it when daddy "accidentally" bumps his head on the ceiling. 
Noah likes to put on Daddy's shoes and hat and run around the house...well not run in those huge shoes, but it's totally cute how he wants to be like Daddy!
