Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas!

Christmas Day-(matching for a Brunk family picture, Jared would never want anyone to think we really plan to match :) )

Christmas Eve

Our precious blessing!

He went "Crash/Bang" off his tricycle hence the scab on his nose, but seriously how many kids can peddle at not even 2. He is way ahead!

Giddy Up

Tonight before bed Noah asked if he could have a book. We usually do not let him have books in the crib at night night time, but since Jared told him he could have it we gave it to him. A few minutes later we checked to make sure he was not still reading and this is what we found.

LOVE this horse! This use to be Jared's horse and when it made its way to our house I have to admit I thought it was a little big to go in Noah's room. Now after he rides for 15 minutes straight, I LOVE it! Here he is in action and this is a very mild ride, may I add.

Thanksgiving

Noah and I enjoyed a trip to Ohio for Thanksgiving this year. We had a great time with family.

We have so much to be thankful for and I thank God for all he has blessed us with.

Our baby boy remains one of our greatest blessings. Every Good and Perfect Gift is from Above.

Here are some of my fav pictures of Noah from the trip.

This smile couldn't get any cuter to me!

I swear he did not learn to pose from me!

Curls?

Today I attempted to cut Noah's hair. Did I mention I DON'T cut hair. It's not my thing and I shouldn't do it. I did cut his hair once before and it turned out okay I thought. Well today I cut the front too short and when we met Jared for lunch his response was "Go have someone fix it."

Where did my babies curls go? I loved all those long curls.

He is still the cutest little guy ever!

This cracks me up! This is his smile. Noah smile with your eyes open, still this!

Even with short hair he's my handsome little man!

Treats Please!

I have to admit I was not real creative this year. I was trying to go with what we had, so Noah was an OSU football player.

(Jared's response getting him dressed, Dont the basketball players wear the warmups?)

So he was an OSU all around athelete!

We went to a Halloween/Fall Festival it was so much fun to watch Noah enjoy all the games, popcorn( HE LOVED IT) , balloons, and bounce houses.

Loving the bounce house!

We ended the night and stopped at our favorite Ice Cream shop as if the candy wasn't enough!

Noah's newest smile! Thanks Nana Pat and Papa Sirna for the pajamas!

Pumpkin time!

Last night we enjoyed the pumpkin patch, dinner with friends, and pumpkin carving!

Once Noah saw the tractor the pumpkins didn't have a chance!

Fall is in the air!

Today was so beautiful, it actually reached 60 degrees a feeling I almost forgot.

We hit the football field for some fun and fresh, cool, crisp air.

Cousins

Daddy breaking for a kiss from his buddy

Noah LOVES football!

Mommy's Helper

Noah loves to help Mommy! Today he decided to help me organize the toilet paper rolls. I had to laugh when I turned and looked at him with all the rolls out the bag.

Who needs a step stool when you have a toilet paper roll!?

You are such a good helper buddy! What would my days be like without you!

These boots were made for walking

Grammy Brunk decided to try Jared's old fireman boots on Noah. They look pretty cute with pajamas might I add!

Mmm Good!

Good spaghetti Mom!

This is what he does when I say smile

How do you choose just one!

Laundry!

I set Noah's laundry basket outside his room today and walked away, came back and found this. Apparently, he thought I needed help sorting the laundry!

Caught in the act!

(I realize I need to work on the streaks on the mirror)

"Cheesing" for Mom! My sweet little guy looks so old-18 months!

Go Bucks!!

Ready for the big game!

GO BUCKS!

Under the Sea

On Friday Noah and some friends visited a small aquatic center. He loved looking at the fish and sea life. He was also pretty excited to see a "dig dig" working at the back of the building.

(Noah and Tyler checking out the "dig dig")

Love this one...holding himself up to see the fish

Anniversary!

Happy 5 year Anniversary Jared!

Thanks for being a wonderful Husband and Father to Noah!

I am truly blessed and thankful for the man that you are.

I love you BABE! ;)

Jumping Fountains

Noah and I enjoyed an afternoon at the jumping fountains with friends. This boy LOVES the water!!

So long August!

Here are some highlights from August since I didn't have a lot of time to post.

Noah loves to play the piano!

My beach buddy and showoff!

Rascall Flatts Concert

Visit to cupcake shoppe with Grandma Hershey (look at the size of Noah's cupcake)

Me and my boy!

What a great month this was, Noah is talking so much it has been so much fun.

Every time I hold this little guy I realize how blessed I am! What an awesome Creator we have!

Beach Buddy

For some reason I have not been able to download any of my videos so here is a picture of Noah from the beach today! We love hanging at the beach together!

Two Peas in a Pod

Sam decided to join Noah playing in his slightly used (new to him) and FREE house!

These two are buddies!
