Noah Fielding

Yay -- I can upload video!

Just a few random quotes

Sarah:

"I keep growing up, then I die and live forever."

"Holy cow, this ghost soap is amazing!" (I bought foaming soap with GID ghosts on the bottle)

Noah (listening to TMBG song "C is for Conifer"):

"C is not for that! It's for cookie!"

More General Cuteness

Karen had fun at Sarah's birthday party. Napkins and pizza. What else does a girl need? Oh yes...a great hair do.

Noah was being crazy running wildly through the house one day, carrying a can opener. When he fell and cracked himself in the head, we had some excitement trying to get the bleeding to stop and clean up bloody hands. He was pretty happy about having a Spider-man Band-aid though.

This is the pre-crawling. She would get down and try to move around but kept that one foot out to anchor herself so she could sit back up.

Our home teacher took the kids out in his canoe as a treat for their birthdays. They loved it and didn't even drop the oars in.

A boy just can't fall asleep without his light sabers close at hand.

What do you think? Is Sarah big enough to hold Karen? They both seem to like it.

T-ball

Noah's team is the mini "San Francisco Giants."

This kid is a great fielder. He was about the only boy on either team who was actually trying to catch balls that were hit. And he threw them all straight to first base, like we practiced. (We discovered he's left handed too, in case you can't tell by the glove.)

I love this picture. Good job Daddy.

Family Resemblance - Eleven Months

Karen and Noah look very similar in these shots. I decided this kid around that the pony tail should lie flat, instead of stand straight up. ;)

Sarah, the Birthday Girl

Sarah turned 5 on October 4th.

Sarah had a little party with her friends during preschool.


We went to Chuck E. Cheese for a family party. (Yay for coupons!)



They had a cute little machine that pretended to draw a portrait and printed out a picture for the cost of one token. Definitely worth it.

The cake(s). They didn't look exactly how I intended, but as long as you just look at them this size, they're pretty good. I also couldn't find the doll cake picks, so I shoved actual dolls in to the cake.



Sarah got some fun art kits to paint butterflies, make jewelry, and make bouncy balls. She also got the requisite girly Barbies and My Little Ponies. And the "ATM safe" piggy bank in the picture. She has her own little ATM card to get into it, which she adores almost as much as the money itself.

Noah, the Birthday Boy

Noah turned 3 on September 21st. We played at Peter Piper Pizza and had cake at Nana's house. Noah fell asleep in the car on the way, but eventually he woke up and joined the party.

The cake. I thought it turned out well, if I do say so myself.


Noah got lots of boy presents: sword and armor, toy gun, light sabers...

Oh man...

I have one heckuva blogging spree building up. I have pictures in my camera from Noah's birthday, Sarah's birthday, Karen's 11-mo pics, Noah's T-ball game...and stuff I'm sure I'll need to blog about once I get the pictures off the camera. I really should pace myself more...
