We're suckers

This weekend, I learned first-hand why kid-centric marketing works. We got a coupon for a free sitting and large photo from one of those kiddie photo places. Of course, they take many photos and give you the option to buy more. Well, of course when we saw the photos of Noah, we felt like buying all of them. Judging by the other parents looking at photos of their kids, every parent feels this way. Ok, so we're suckers, but not entirely. We still got some nice pictures of our cutie pie.

Happy birthday Noah

Noah celebrated his Valentine's birthday a few days early by having some of his friends over. It's hard to believe it's been one year already. Noah has changes so much every day that it never gets routine, and I'm really looking foward to the next year.

Turtles are short

Last night, Noah said his first word that wasn't "mama" or "dada". While reading a book to him with the line "turtles are short", he said: "turtle" very clearly. Maybe talking is just around the corner.
