She is blooming and changing so much, no longer a lump of an infant, but an alert, engaging little person with quirks and talents and a real personality.
We had a whirlwind trip to California this past week. I call it the Noa 1st Birthday World Tour. She stopped in several cities and played to hundreds of adoring fans........
Her birthday party is tomorrow, and Noa has invited her new friends Owen, Izzy, Maddy, Hadassah, and Noah (and of course, their parents), and her Grandpa and Nana and Uncle Bobby. Jeremy is working overtime perfecting the perfect sugar-free carrot cake.
We are both clear that we don't want Noa to eat loads of sugar, so we decided to find a healthier alternative. It is tricky though. You want your kid to eat healthy foods, but you also don't want your kid to be known as "that kid"--the kid who brings a baggie of carrot sticks with them to birthday parties because their parents only let them eat wheat germ and raw foods.
Anyway, here are some random pics of Noa's trip to Cali. Happy Birthday Wee--Enjoy your next trip around the sun!
Here are two shots of Noa trying to ingest as much pool water as she can before I intervene...
Mmmmmm. Amoeba-y goodness.....
Here is a shot of her the day before we left, in the dress her Auntie Mia got her. It is a 3-6 month size, so it is a little snug.
We stayed a few days with our friends Zak and Morgan and their son James at their place in Grass Valley. They have an amazing view of the Sierras from their deck.
Noa and James get their groove on Matthew McConaughey style, naked playing the bongos.
Noa looks to James for some guidance about the best way to extract the toys from the pool. They are workin' the sunhats.
Another shot of Miss Noa Bean. Oh so serious......
