We tried our first meal of rice cereal last night, and Noelle absoltuely loved it!
So inquisitive…
She was constantly grabbing for more in the bowl after Dad would give her a spoonful!
“YUMMY!”
Open wide, just like a baby bird…
And then she was finished!
We HAVE to keep clothes on this girl at all times or the diaper’s comin’ off!
Brad and Destiny got to meet our little angel and tell us about theirs – CONGRATS guys!!! We love you!!!
Noelle loves hanging out with new friends!
We had no clue Noelle would drink tea… she even wanted more! She’s crazy!
Kangaroo and baby with Noelley and Mommy!
“I LOVE ELEPHANTS!” Noelle always laughs at the elephants on Baby Einstein!
On Sunday, Noelle got to meet her Great Great Aunt Polly – what a special day that was for all of us.
Aunt Polly and I (Melissa) are heart friends, and this day meant the world to me!
Happy Birthday, John Boy!!!
The fam with “John the Builder!”
Noelle got to help Brother John blow out the candles!
Thanks Noelle for helping us surprise John!
Way to GO birthday boy!
Mom, Noelle, and I went to St. Louis to see my doctor there. Although we were at the doctor the majority of the time, we had some fun on the side. Thanks to all of you who are keeping my health in your prayers; I sincerely appreciate your love and care.
Leaving from the new Terminal D at DFW… St. Louis here we come! Mom, thank you for coming to help me with Noelle. You are such a wonderful person and give sacrificially to those in need. I will never forget all that you have done to help in the healing process.
My friend from California, Cindy, who was my babysitter when I was a little girl, met us in St. Louis to see the good doc as well. We took a stable tour at the Budweiser plant to see the Clydesdales.
Mom, Noelle, and I at the Gateway Arch.
My darling…
Picture I took from the top of the arch – cool huh?
In the airport on the way home. Noelle was awesome on her first and second airplane rides. She was such a trooper and never made a peep. We are so proud of her – this trip was challenging and she was mommy’s little cheerleader the entire time. I am so thankful the Lord has blessed Mike and me with such a wonderful daughter.
Noelle got a great report at the doctor today. She weighs 14 lbs. 9 oz. and is 26 in. long. The doctor said, “She’s perfect!” Then the nurse came in for the dreaded shots, two in each leg… yikes… Daddy came this time – he was so sad!
Tylenol helps with the fever…
And Mamma Kay and Grandma came by to cheer Noelle up!
She bounced back today! Let’s get those band aids off, what do ya say?
Noelle is such a GO baby!
Random Rosie…
Poppa Doc and Grand Rosie LOVE being with their kiddos!
Okay Okay… I know I’m not 12, but who could resist a super-sized slide?
Mom and I just got through sharing a delicious filet…mmmm…
John, Mike, and Dad hanging out around the dance floor – getting ready to get down…
Noelle actually fell asleep sitting up at the table – it was hysterical!
"I give this place a thumbs up!"
Noelle looking forward to a great day…
We took Noelle to the Xeriscape Garden in Veteran’s Park…
Even Michele is in this picture via cell phone….
We cooked dinner tonight after visiting Green’s Produce. However, John, Mike, and I had to sneak off to get a Thunder from Down Under a little later…
