Homecoming, Pumpkins and Swimming

Noah had a really busy weekend.  Friday was Eaton Rapids Homecoming, so we went to a parade, and then the game.  Noah got to play with his buddy Owen before the parade, which he always enjoys.  Noah also got passed around to all his favorite people.  We went to the game, and so many people tired him right out.  We left at halftime and went to the Smith's.  This is where Noah discovered the joys of a walker that looks like a sportscar, and HONKS.  I'm pretty sure that's all he did.  He also was entranced by their television showing some Mickey Mouse treehouse show, or something, I'll have to get the name of that.  Both Noah and Owen loved that show.

Noah the next morning decided that his jumper was in fact for jumping (finally).  He really looked like he was doing the Riverdance, and it was absolutely hysterical to watch.  The next morning he did this, he actually fell asleep while jumping.  He would nod off, and then jump again and wake up, and it was sooooo funhy to watch.

Serious.

Did I mention Noah babbles incessantly??  ALL THE TIME!  Constant babbling, especially if people are talking.  He is not about to be left out of the conversation.

We also got Noah his first pumpkin.  Let him play with the guts, which yes, he did inevitably stick in his mouth....repeatedly.

And lastly, Noah went to his swim lesson.  He was really comfortable in the water, more so than some of the other children there.  He loved the games they would play in the pool.  He kicked when he was supposed to, and splashed.  They also want them to learn that when they jump in, their faces will not stay above water.  So we worked on a little dunking, and he loved that too.  They also wanted them to learn to relax in the floating position, again Noah did awesome!

those legs were kicking the whole time!
