Crawling and Cruising.

Look at our baby girl. Isn't she getting so big?

The summer is gone. :(

It has been WAY too long since I posted last, but this summer has been crazy busy. The three of us loved spending whole days together sometimes barely sitting down and others doing absolutely nothing. Oh, the perks of being a teacher! I love it.

This summer we went to Texas with Grandma Weiler and Uncle Layton, we went to the pool with some of mommy's friends from work, and spent some time with Jodi. We did lots of other things too (my mind is just not working right now).

Anyway, Noelle is growing and growing fast. Last time I posted she was just learning to sit up on her own. These days that is child's play. She is now crawling (mostly an army crawl still), pulling up on everything, chasing the dog, and so much more.

Just the other day she started clicking her tongue and clapping her hands. She is learning so much everyday. I hated going back to school, afraid I would miss something, but daddy does a great job of recording it for me! Thanks babe.

Below are just a collecting of pictures from the summer in no particular order. Enjoy!

With Daddy in Paris, Texas

This is the only picture that we have of Noelle (7 months) where she actually looks like me, but I love it!

Daddy--fishin'

Daddy and Noelle playing at the Discovery Green Park in Downtown Houston, Tx.

Baby's first time in the ocean! The Gulf of Mexico, near the Kemah Boardwalk.


Noelle got her ears pierced! She only cried for a minute and aren't they sooooo cute!!


We went to quite a few Gateway Grizzlies' games this summer with Jodi and Andre. We had fun!


She fell asleep in her high chair...I guess I was taking too long. :)

She pulled up to the coffee table. This is the first time I saw her do it and yes...I cried. She is getting so big.

Well, that's it for now. Hopefully it won't be so long before I get back.

love. The Wilson's

sitting up!!!

oops. She fell over. :)

A little note we wrote to Granny and Papa Weiler (Noelle's great grandparents). Hope they enjoy their little package!

After much work Noelle now can sit up by herself for an undetermined amount of time. She often will reach for something and fall over (usually a hard fall), and then be upset and look at David or I like we did something wrong. :)

6 months old!

And again at 6 months!

Look at the difference in our baby girl.
Here she is at one month.

We took Noelle to the doctor on Monday for her 6 month checkup.

Here are her stats:
18 lbs 5 oz (90%)
26 1/2 in (75%)
her head is in the (90%)

Let's just say she is getting big!

I have also been making more foods for her (we stopped solids for a while because she didn't seem interested). She has been eating like a champ and still loves carrots and sweet potatoes. She tried peaches today for the first time but didn't like those very much. Tomorrow we are going to try some pears! Hopefully she will like them. :)

Daddy picked out a sippy cup for her to have some water and she is a huge fan. More a fan of swinging the cup than actually drinking though. Thanks dad!

Carrots!

I made my first batch of baby food for Noelle the other day. Carrots. It was way easier than I thought it would be and it tasted DELICIOUS (which is obviously the most important part). I am very proud of myself knowing my baby girl is eating something mommy made just for her. :)

a big girl now..

After a much needed cleaning and a replacing a missing screw Noelle's crib is now able to be used. She had fully outgrown her bassinet!

It's about time mom and dad!

She loves all the space she has in that big bed to roll over and turn around and stick her legs out the bars...

Mommy almost cried when she slept in that big bed for the first time. :(

5 months!

Noelle is 5 months old!

She loves listening to music, dancing with daddy, sucking her thumb or thumbs, bouncing, eating carrots (they are her fav...so far) and almost sleeping through the night. Her smile and laugh are the greatest! I'm pretty sure she is the cutest baby ever!

oh and yesterday was my first mother's day. I love being a mom. It is a lot of work but more rewarding than I could have ever imagined. I love you baby girl. I can't wait for the many more mother's days to come.
