Playin' - It's what I'm paid to do

One of my favorite things to do is to roll balls down the stairs to the basement.  Noah is getting so good on the stairs, we really don't need the gate anymore.  Basically, now we just use it to keep him on the same level of the house as we are on.



Playing with my new favorite Thomas the Tank Engine table.  It is homemade and Mom and Dad bought it on Craigslist for $10, but hey I love my "Choo-Choo's"

Announcing....the Newest Dieker!!!



Ok, so I'm sure you all know already that baby Dieker #2 is coming! We are due August 29th with our second little one! Everything is going well, we have had 2 ultrasounds and lots of blood tests and everything looks good! Our scanner is broken, so I just took pictures of the ultrasound pics, so sorry about the bad quality! Our last ultrasound was Tuesday when I was 8.5 weeks pregnant. We could see the baby's arms and legs and heartbeat, he/she was wiggling around for us.

Sorry I've been slacking!

Isn't he adorable? Noah loves to run around in Ryan's hats.
Noah just climbed up into this chair and sat at the table like "Ok, I'm ready..." Ready for what, we have no idea. After dreading it for months, Ryan and I (ok, just Ryan) cut Noah's hair himself. It went really well, we just put on Thomas and I fed him a steady stream of "m's" that's what Noah calls M&M's and he didn't really seem to care. Hooray big boy haircuts and hooray us not paying for them anymore!!

We love how Noah uses his Sit-n-Spin as a stool, it's so cute! This is pre-haircut, so you can get a look at the "before."

Buddies




Here are a couple of playgroup buddies with Noah, these pics were taken right after Noah shoved an entire chicken nugget into his mouth.  Marquez is in the middle and Brian is on the other end.  Aren't they cute?

Our little couch potato

Noah has officially become one of us. He loves his TV... This isn't something we greatly encourage except for when he is getting his medicine in his nebulizer. So, he has started playing downstairs some while we are getting things around and we looked down on Friday last week and he had turned on the Imagination Movers and was laying on the floor watching TV with his hands behind his head. How cute.



He also has started liking getting covered with a blanket, which works well since he owns about 50. Here he is watching the Movers one Saturday morning with his new Thomas blanket (Thanks Grandma Dieker).
