Happy Anniversary, Mommy and Daddy!!

Today was my Mommy and Daddy's first anniversary! They got married one year ago today in New Hampshire. I get to go to NH in a month, yipee!! So, Mommy and Daddy went to the Mission Inn Resaurant in Riverside while Karen and Seth babysat me! My very first babysitting experience... it was a little tough when it was time to go to bed, and I let Karen know I wasn't too happy Mommy and Daddy weren't around, for about 20 minutes. (I cried). But other than that I had lots of fun hanging out with Seth!

Happy Anniversary, Mommy and Daddy!

gate

Daddy says I am like a little toy when I bounce around at the gate ... like one of those toys where you push up the bottom and makes the little animal dance. Whatever Daddy. :)

My Gym

I went to My Gym today for the first time! That place is coooool! My buddy Adam was there too! Mommy is going to sign me up for classes this summer. I am so excited! There are so many things to plan on and in and so many kids to watch!

Top Names in 2009

Turns out my parents weren't all that original in naming me! Noah was the 9th most popular name last year in the country. (Jacob was #1, Ethan #2, Michael, Alexander, William, Joshua, Daniel, Jayden, Noah, Anthony). Noah was number 19 in California though, number 12 in Washington, and number 11 in New Hampshire. I guess that's better than my grandparents! Christopher was number 3 in 1975 and Jennifer was number 1 in 1976!!

Karen and Seth

Mommy and I got to see Karen and Seth today in Riverside! I like Seth a lot! He is silly and makes funny noises! Karen's alright too ;) he he. :) We hung out and walked around Mission Inn, so pretty and lots of nice people who all seem to think I am pretty cute and smiley. I did get called a girl though. hmph.

Here's a video of me and Seth having a very nice conversation!

Story Time

Mommy took me to the library for the firsdt time today. There was a story time with all sorts of singing and dancing... and 100 people! It was so fun, I got to play with an egg shaker and beat on a drum too! I can't wait to go again!

Safety Gate

Mommy and Daddy put up a new gate for me! Now I have a special place to practice standing!! Yeah, that's right! I can stand AND took a few sideways steps at this gate!!

Playdate and More

This has been an eventful week!!! I can pull myself up to stand now, which I started to do about a week or so ago!! And I can crawl on my hands and knees, something I figured out just this Sunday the 6th right before my playdate! And this tooth is stilling cutting through!

Mommy and Daddy had to lower my crib since I pull myself up to stand now!

Mommy took this pic after I just woke up. This is my Prince Charming shirt from Jackie and Rich! Still fits!
On Sunday the 6th we had a Playdate at Yvette's!!! It was Yvette's birthday too, and Corinna's birthday the day before!
Jacob, Alex, Asher, me, Sophia and Adam! We all had so much fun playing together. I hadn't seen these guys in ages! At first, it took me a little while to take it all in, I had to just sit there and look. But after a few minutes I started to play with some toys and stuff. There were so many babies. I met Alex and Jacob for the first time too! And saw my old buddies, Sophia, Adam and Asher too!

Yesterday, Mommy took pics of my just after my bath. So embarrassing! But check out my hair, I swear, my hair did this naturally!

Here's a slide show of my recent playdate with all sorts of friends, of videos of me crawling on my hands and knees, and of my silly mohawk! Enjoy!

My First Camping Trip

I went camping this weekend! It was my first camping trip ever! We went to Butler Canyon in Anza Borrego State Park and camped in one of my daddy's favorite spots (at the end of a 10 mile dirt road past Dry Lake) and then camped in Belle Campground in Joshua Tree National Park. It was very dry and very hot, but we went on a few hikes and made campfires and relaxed under the new Alcove and in the the new Kingdom6 tent we just got. It was super fun, even though my skin is very sensitive to all that dryness! I saw lots of lizards too!!

This is our campsite in Joshua Tree NP.
We went hiking here on day two of our trip, it is between Anza Borrego State Park and Joshua Tree. It is called Painted Canyon near Mecca.

This is our campsite on our first night out, in Anza Borrego Desert.

This is what happens to me when I go on a hike with Mommy and Daddy!

Small hike in Joshua Tree near our campsite, day three (feeling very sleepy).

Hanging out in my pack n play at the campsite... away from all the neat looking dirt that Mommy wouldn't let me grab... boooo!

On our hike in the Painted Canyon, day two. We saw lots of lizards on this trip. Mommy even touched this one and Daddy got some video (see below in the slideshow)!

Riding in this backpack is so awesome!
