Noah’s First Trip To Linden Hills

We’re back home now from our vacation with Noah out to Linden Hills and have been busy getting back to work.

I’ve finally had a wee bit of time to create a little collection of video clips from the trip, which was a wonderful one.

Thank you to everyone who traveled to see Noah and visit with everyone. He loved meeting and spending time with you all! We look forward to having Noah meet the rest of his relatives who weren’t there, and for him to be able to spend time with folks in the family he has met, but who weren’t there for this trip. He’s a very extroverted little fellow and loves to meet and play with all kinds of people, so we can’t wait for him to meet everyone in the family.

Hope you enjoy the video, which can be seen when you click to read the full blog post.

Noah Does Impression of Einstein

I think I’ll just let these photos tell the story. Bari gave him an entire frozen sorbet bar the other day, and this is what happened.

First Birthday Party!

Noah had his first birthday party last night up here at the cottage! Most of the family was here and wow, was the cake every good. He absolutely loves his new stacking game from Uncle Greg, Auntie Veronika, and cousins Anna and Valerie.

Noah the fly boy

On the beach this afternoon, hours before Noah’s first birthday party, the wind kicked up as a storm front began to roll across the lake. Rain started to drizzle and Noah, Grampa Popo, and I began playing on the beach in the big wind. Lots of laughter and squeels of joy ensued. The boy loves to fly!

Noah’s First Beach Adventure

Lots and lots has been happening for the little guy during this, our first family vacation!

We’ve been up at the cottage in Linden Hills since last Saturday night, and have been having a very fun time with Noah. He’s really happy with all of the people here, both in the cottage and on the beach. Lots of babies and little ones near his age. So many new things he’s experiencing for the first time. It’s really quite special to bring him here to this place, a place that has been in our family for 5 generations now.
