We are a month out to his birthday and a short one at that! I realized this would be my last month to month post as the next one will be his first birthday letter. It's really bittersweet because these will be the last moments we will have a baby in our home, but there's a reason I don't want more! I really wish there was a way to relive moments, but since I can't, writing it down is the next best thing.
Noah is such a cutie! As long as he's close to mom, he gets very smiley at other people. He also has teeth which give him even more personality. He is very loved by all of us, especially his older brothers. Joseph loves to hold him and put him on the bed or couch, which I have to rescue him. Eli likes to play and cuddle with him. Eden likes him, too (sometimes).
Noah is getting closer to walking, but I feel we are still a month or two out from that. He's content crawling around and pulling up to things. He does walk with his walker! Noah also likes this basketball Eli got for Christmas and will bounce or roll it all around the house. He's learned how to pass it back and forth between us. As much as he likes to be on the go, he's really gotten more content sitting in the stroller, which is nice because we've been walking to school or sitting there for Eli's martial arts lessons.
He has been experiencing a lot of diaper rash recently. I think it has to do with how much he poops! On days he poops less his bum looks like it's healing, but days where we have 4-6 poopy diapers it's so red and raw it will start bleeding, even when he's smathered with diaper cream every time. Maybe it's TMI, but I think it's worth mentioning, haha!
Now to start planning his first birthday (and my 30th!)
| Cuddles in the morning! |
| Bouncing his favorite toy...which happens to be Eli's |
| He gets into mischief, like pulling out Joseph's underwear drawer, throwing out all the underwear and climbing inside! |
| His smile gets me every time! |
