Second Attempt....

Those of you who have been following the blog may remember last year's sad attempt at a hike.  I am happy to report that the 2nd Annual Father's Day Hike went much better....

Thanks Miel for commenting on my posts!  It makes me feel that someone actually looks at this!

Swimming Lessons!

Noah took an intense 2 week 'mom and me' swimmming class.  When dad learned that the class actuallly had more dads than moms, he wanted in.  So dad snuck away from work to come splash with Noah a couple of times.  Yay!  (Mom wishes that meant she did not also have to get in the pool, but she was not that lucky...thank goodness dad isn't into taking pictures....)

Desperation

This is Noah desperately trying to get my attention. When his sippy cup didn't prove sufficient temptation to get me off the phone, he grabbed the strainer in a vain, but darling attempt to lure me away. see mom....you LOVE this thing!

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em...

This fuzzy picture is Noah 'talking on the strainer'. Noah loves to mimic talking on the phone with various household objects. Normally the object is a small book or toy, but this is the best one yet. He wandered around holding that thing to his ear, babbling for a good 5 minutes.
