Noah's Progress Report

It might have been a fluke, but today, March 19th, Noah rolled from his stomach to his back. I was so excited when he did it, I called Jason right away. I put Noah flat on his stomach on his play mat and he just started to roll, he did pause for a moment to get his leg over. I don't remember Elijah and Sariah doing this at this age. Anyways, I did a big cheer for him. If he does it again then I'll know it wasn't a fluke. I wish I could record him but our digital camera broke a few days ago and the new camera that we bought doesn't take videos. I better hurry up and buy one to take videos so I don't miss all of our cute moments. But babies are so funny, all they have to do is toss their big head in one direction and the rest of their body follows.

Game Cancelled Due to Rain

The Angels didn't get to play their second playoff game today due to the rain, so this is what we did instead. We went bowling, yay! We love going to Elijah's games, but it's nice to have a weekend off, to do what we choose. Elijah had fun trying to hold the heavy bowling ball with three little fingers, walk forward, raise his arm, and launch the ball down the lane, all without falling flat on his face. You know, that's pretty hard for little kids. Sariah had fun rolling the ball down the lane granny style, with a little help from mom. Noah enjoyed dreaming sweet dreams of his favorite people in the world. But we were the most happy about waking up and seeing daddy in bed. He's been working very hard everyday and he's usually gone before anyone wakes up. But he finally had a day off. I started thinking that I was a single mom. It was a good day.

GO ANGELS!!!

Elijah has had a wonderful 2nd season of baseball. He's not on the same undefeated team as last season, but he has grown the most with his new team. They are called the Angels and they most definitely are, well most of them. The season is over and they lost more than they won, but who cares, as long as they are having fun. His coaches are the best! They have taken Elijah under their wing and I love the way they teach him, they are so patient. During the game they're not all about the win, it's about doing your best and having fun. They told us that they see great potential in him, they want to have him on their team next season, and asked if he would want to be on the all-star team.

The Angels had their first playoff game today and they won. GO ANGELS!! So now they will face another opponent on Saturday. As I was watching their game today, I noticed how the coach on the other team yelled at his kids. These are only 7 and 8 year olds and they have so much pressure on them. I was not the only one who noticed, other moms did also. If Elijah had him for a coach, I would pull him out in a heartbeat or tell the coach off, which ever comes first. You just had to of heard it. But the sad thing is that I saw it on many of the teams. That is why I love Elijah's coaches, they really care for this team and they're not all about the win.

Elijah always says the most perfect comments. Yesterday in the car he told me, "I don't care if we win or lose, just as long as we have fun."

One Month Old

I'm still catching up and new things are happening all the time, but oh well. These are pics of Noah when he turned one month old. It has been such a blessing having him in my life. I melt everytime he looks into my eyes and smiles. I don't have to say a funny joke, make a funny face, or do anything to impress him, he just loves to see me because it's me. We have the most amazing conversation, we don't speak with words, it's mostly funny sounds, but he and I know exactly what the other one is saying. I can't say that I love the 2 am feedings, spit up on a shirt that I had just put on because the one before it had spit up too, or any of the other tasks that new moms endure, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I feel so greatful that my Heavenly Father has blessed me and trusted me to raise these children, I just pray that I make him proud.
