McDonalds hits the spot on a snowy day


After much playing, relaxing, and looking at the snow, we finally decided to venture out for lunch. The snow was melting on the roads so we decided McDonalds was sounding mighty fine and it's just around the corner! Noah and I had a great time eating a leisurely lunch and chit chatting about Santa Claus (who was there a few weeks back), the snow outside, and the "tasty hagburger and fries" we were eating. :)
Noah is very proud of the minature snowman. He kept saying, "bigger and bigger and bigger!" But I tried to explain that there was not enough snow for us to make a big one. It was hard enough bending up and down making this tiny one.
The snowman Noah and I made. It looks a lot bigger when I take the picture close up. :)

Turning a corner..........


Our sweet little Noah is now in his big boy bed. It's a toddler bed, so not much different from a crib. But it's a big step for me and he didn't fight it one bit. He was asleep within seconds of climbing in as you can see above. Boo hoo........where did my baby go?

Noah trying out his big boy (toddler) bed for the first time. There was no building up to this moment. Dad merely brought it in from the garage on a whim, and Noah loved it immediately.

Uncle Mike and Tucker having fun.

Baby Tucker and Noah. Yes, Tucker is a hoss. He is only 6 inches shorter than Noah even though Noah is 20 months older. :)  Posted by Picasa
