What's a car ride without a balloon??

After a string of birthday parties for his big sister's friends, Noah was a bit tired in the car on our way home from the pool. Lily made us so proud - she had a balloon from a goody bag that she was really excited about, but she let her fussy brother have a turn. She told us (direct quote here) "I thought maybe Noah was crying because he wanted the balloon. So I let him have a turn for a minute and he's happy. See?!" Sniff, sniff... and as you can tell, Noah was pretty psyched to have a turn.

Grandma and Grandpa's 'hood

Noah loves the swings as much as Lily does. They had fun riding in the wagon to play at the several playgrounds near Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Big Little Cousin!

Noah met our "little" cousin Cruz while we were in Kansas City. Although Noah is six months older, Cruz is the bigger guy between the two.

Ears Feeling Better!

We love Noah's ENT, but between all of Noah's doctors and the little guy's frequent ear infections, we don't want to see him as much anymore! Last week he had tubes inserted... our hospital isn't our favorite place to be, but he did great.

We were worried about not feeding him for most of the morning, keeping him entertained in the prep room, etc... but Noah was as good-natured as ever. Imagine J. singing "I don't want no scrubs..."
Recovery room! Sleepy but ready for snuggles.
Feeling better the next morning... yup, we gave him a cookie. He earned it.
And back to his normal self by dinner time :) Thanks to everyone who sent positive thoughts our way!
