On the 8th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

8 handsome antlers

7 Great hours of sleep (plus more)

6 Fun hours of working on my leg muscles

5 Fun Discovery toys to play with

4 Peeping Eyes 3 Cold Teething Keys

2 "Happy" Plates

And a BIG boy carseat

So we had a really interesting weekend. So begin, we had plans to go see Amanda and Madden and go to his birthday party at Chuck-E-Cheeses. I could not wait. And then on our way home, we were going to stop and see Karen and baby Brooks. However, plans were cancelled when I realized on Friday that I NEEDED 4 new tires. And not just "will need them soon", but the tires had been wore down to the metal. Man, I must be rough on tires huh? Chris told me that I need to go back to drivers ed now that I have these new tires so I won't tear them up. Changing the subject, here's a pic of our tree.

My baby loves to read...or at least turn the pages

It's Friday night, and he's out early.

So when Chris went for his weekly poker night, I decided that I would take lots of pics of Noah since I don't have enough! :) HA HA! It's kind of hard to get him to sit up (which he still needs help with), and them look at the camera. I tried though. Check out the rolls on this little dude! Saturday night, he slept all night in his big boy bed. It was still a little chilly in there, but I did it. He did just fine. I missed him being in my room. I feel like my baby has grown up! NOT! Because the next night, he was back in my room, but only becuase he didn't feel good all day, and I think he kept trying to throw up. It had us a little nervous. But tonight's a new night!

We went to a Discovery Toy party on Thursday night. He really enjoyed himself, especially flirting with Miss Kyla. I guess he don't remember her slapping the mess out of him the last time they hung out. Jay Jay got him a few toys for Christmas.
Don't he look like the guys who sing "Whip It"....I think it's Devo.
Before we left, Noah decided to take Kyla's Combi for a spin around the block. This is so cute! The steering wheel turned and made noises.

So after we realized that we weren't headed to Baton Rouge, we decided that we'd go help Pops put up his Christmas lights after we took care of the tires. While we were there, they gave him his present early....the rainforest jumperoo (video above). He LOVES it. We have laughed so hard at it. Sometimes he gets to jumping sideways and looks like a boxer. And even when he's crying and whining...he's still bouncing. That's love. And this is what he looks like after all the fun...

BEWARE...READ AT YOUR OWN RISK...PG-NASTY

Here is a great reason why mommys (and expecting mommys) should always make sure that she has the right size diaper on her child, especially if they LOVE to bounce all day!
I'm sorry, it was an accident.

Just a quick lesson! (Ashley and Jay) And as you can see, mommy cleans and daddy gags as he takes pictures!
