First skinned knee!

Sometimes you lose your brain as a Mom, right?  I couldn’t tell on myself until now because it wasn’t funny last week; now I am at least grinning as I write this.  Okay, last week Noelle and I were getting home from shopping, and we were so happy.  I put down the garage door and decided to drop my purse and bags inside and come right back to get Noelle.

I thought she would be bored for the second I was gone (silly, I know), so I gave her my car keys to play with (as she was laughing and saying “keys”).  I dropped the bags off in the kitchen, came back to get her, and heard CLICK… you guessed it, she locked herself in the car.  I ran inside and called Mike to come home immediately, that I had locked Noelle in the car!  It wasn’t too hot that day and he was home in less than 2 minutes and saved the day.  Thank God Daddy works down the street! 

I’m trying to be the best Mommy in the world, but here’s just one story to say that I’m not perfect!

Papa and Rara had a great trip to Montana!  They hiked every day and went to lots of beautiful national parks… it was fun hearing of their mountain adventures!  I want to post some of the pics from their trip soon, after all, “Dad, you did such a great job sending them to us!” 

Noelle’s first little pony!!!

One cool Mom and Dad!!!

“I want in…”

Papa to the rescue! 

Thanks for supper Mom and Dad – we had such a wonderful evening with you and are so glad you are back in Texas (for a week at least…)

We got this sweet little dress in Cozumel when I was pregnant with Noelle… I’ll take more pics of her in it soon.  I had to post this pic because Noelle is always singing and playing the guitar with Daddy, and it is so sweet!

Happy 26th Birthday, Shawn!!!

Noelle loved playing in Shawn and Ashley’s big back yard!

Mrs. Edge playing swing and low and happy glasses with Noelley!

Put Noelle down with some food, and she’s happy!

Fun with trick candles… this was the most AMAZING Italian cream cake we have ever had – thanks Peggy (Mrs. Edge)! 

Emily, Me, Ashley, and Chelsea about to enjoy a very very good drink!

Mike gets introduced to the Wii – we both made our Miis.  Noelle’s favorite thing was the WiiMote! 

Thanks for letting us share your big day with you!  We had so much FUN!

One of the first things Noelle did to interact with an object was to feed her baby her milk.  Now she says, “Bebe,”and “Mil” over and over until we give her her baby and her baby’s milk.  Yesterday, she slept with her baby at nap time.  She loves her “Bebe!”
