I don’t know how to write yet, but my Papa and Mama do. They’ll be updating my blog until I figure out how to read, write, and type.
Noah’s Christmas – 2011
Christmas at Mimi and Popo’s went swimmingly this year!
Papa lead the troops out in front of a snow storm a day early in our trusty Prius and we made it to St. Louis with clean dry roads.
Noah, Popo, and Mimi all had a wonderful time playing with each other for the days around Christmas, and we were all sad to leave at the end. (more…)
Pedal bike with no training wheels, soccer class, halloween, and singing
Noah has reached a big milestone in the last couple weeks. He transitioned from the strider/run bike to his big boy “spider man” bike with no training wheels. One night at the velodrome, he rode his strider for almost an hour on the wooden tracks in the middle of the adult race track and then we went outside the track to another kids riding area to try his spider man bike without training wheels.
I put him on top of a small ramp to give him some time to get the pedaling figured out while he was moving, and he got it right away. As soon as he came back around, I turned on the video camera and caught his second and third rides. My heart was quite happy to see him riding and smiling and focusing (with his patented “fish face” of concentration.) (more…)
Mimi goes to school with Noah!
Today Mimi spent the day with Noah at his school, playing and having a good time with him while he explored life in the classroom.
Noah is starting to make some good friends at school, which we are very grateful for as it makes his time there much more enjoyable for him. In particular, Josh and Naiya are two kids that Noah has a great bond with.

Pumpkins are coming!
Noah and his friends at school dug into some pumpkins today. They had tons of fun and Noah came home telling us all about what’s inside pumpkins. He loves scooping out the gooey stuff.

Face paint!
Today Noah discovered the joy of painting your own face with super fun face paints!
I’ll let the image above describe how he felt about it.

Today Noah’s classroom took their first group walk around the neighborhood where his school is.
Here’s a little video slideshow of the adventure 
The Scientist and the Bungee Jumper
A few days ago at school, we got a lovely little update from some events at Noah’s school that day.
Seems like we have a pretty sharp scientist in Noah

Second day of preschool
Okay, don’t worry, I’m not going to be posting every daily slideshow video we get from Noah’s new school, but since this is only the second one, and because there’s a lot of pics of Noah in this one, I couldn’t resist.
He’s in love with his new school and doesn’t want to leave when we come to pick him up!
Noah is making lots of new friends at his school and has wasted no time getting fully engaged with all the new activities and learning and playing to be done at the Journey school.
Go Noah!
First day of preschool at Journey School
Just a quick update…
Noah started at a new school today, called Journey School.
He had no problem adjusting to the new environment and started making new friends right away when I dropped him off this morning.
I was prepared to spend some time with him to make sure he was okay at his new school, but he didn’t need me around for very long before he started to dive in and explore everything at his new school. (more…)
Noah’s First Big Bike Race!
Over the weekend, Noah entered his first real bike race at the local indoor velodrome race track, and he had a super big fun time!
He was the youngest rider in the 3 to 4 year old category, and he ended up winning the race!
It was amazing to watch and so much fun to see him having that much fun. He tried really hard and did great, and he had so much fun that when he finished the second little obstacle course race, he went back out on the track by himself and said to me “I should run around one time and then ride my bike around as fast as I can.” It was like he was training for the next race, though he was only doing it again because it was so much fun.
I hope you enjoy the video, and I apologize in advance for the shaky recording during the race part of it. I was running around trying to film at the same time that I was trying to help him do the race. Next time Mama will do the video camera
