Happy Sabbath

the shakes

Let me start out by saying that my son did not inherit the following trait from me. When Noah first started acting like this, I was so confused, but Matt was quick to tell me that he used to do all sorts of crazy things to amuse himself and others when he was really little. Whew.
Lately, when Noah wants to get attention, he tenses his little body up and shakes. He'll also do it when I ask him to do something he doesn't want to do, as a way of distracting me. We think it's pretty hysterical, and it's obvious he does as well!

will work for food

Anyone looking for a lawn boy?

visiting with family

We've had a very busy past few weeks! Noah's great grandpa from Korea came to visit, as well as aunts and cousins. We also got to see more family in Sacramento and see very good friends get married. Seeing family is so refreshing and we always leave feeling warm and fuzzy.

He got his very own seat on the flight over!

Sooo happy with the suitcase he absolutely 'had to have'....Thanks Halmuni!

new blog title needed

Most of you have already heard our good news, but for those of you who haven't...Noah is going to be a big brother! Matt and I are over the moon about our news. We had a detailed ultrasound done yesterday for a testing procedure, and I asked the ultrasound tech and the perinatal specialist (seperately) what they thought the sex was going to be. They both said without hesitation that they thought it was a girl!!! For some reason, I've been expecting another boy all along, so it's taking me some time to get used to the idea of having a girl. I have a feeling it's going to be a lot more expensive too :) I'm only about 14.5 weeks along, so we'd love it if you kept our little family in your prayers.

bathtime

Noah is still taking his baths in the sink! We keep talking about making the switch to the tub, but Matt and I have his bath down to a science. We can get him bathed in about 2 minutes. It's been so convenient, but he's definately getting rather big to be in the sink.
Also, Noah starts his swim lessons on Monday. They're scheduled right at dinner time, so hopefully he will adapt fairly easy with an earlier dinner. He loved being in the water in Mexico, so hopefully he will enjoy himself!

OC Fair

Since the weather has been so so hot lately, we decided to escape the heat this past weekend and head out to the Orange County Fair. It was only 80 degrees there compared to the 106 over here, so it felt great! First, we visited the petting zoo where we got to feed baby goats, llamas, and sheep. Noah was not thrilled about getting too close to the animals. All animals were still 'dogs' to him, and he wouldn't stop pointing and calling everything dogs! Afterwards, Matt and Noah rode a few children's rides. Noah was a bit of a scaredy cat when it came to the rides...he held on for dear life during most of it. His favorite was clearly the train, where there were buttons inside that he could push that made animal noises. Matt and I got our unhealthy dose of fried food and ended the day with the biggest stuffed frog I've ever seen that Matt won at the game booth. A very fun family day that left us all exhausted.
ps-Thank you so much for the shirt Auntie Rachel, it's one of his favorites!


Not pleased with how close the goat was getting....





Noah was very concerned about us not leaving the frog behind (as tempting as it was), so he held on to the foot the entire time.
