My Aunt Melinda was home and got to finally meet Noah!

My cousin Braden came too!

Grandma, Noah & I, with Maddie as photographer!

We spent Sunday afternoon at my sister's visiting with Melinda, Braden and Grandma Bev. Please keep my grandmother in your prayers as she started chemo for breast cancer the day after these pictures. She has a long road in front of her but we are praying for God's healing over her body. She is a strong, courageous women! We love her very much and we would appreciate your prayers for her.

More Vacation Pictures!

Grandpa and Noah snoozing!

Yes, we did the matching T-shirt thing!

In G & G's Backyard by their Lemon tree!

Our flight home!

Noah checking out the view!

We had such a great time in Texas.
Even if the weather wasn't
that warm it was much better then
the Minnesota cold. Noah loved the
attention he received from
Great Grandma & Grandpa.
Thanks for having us Grandma & Grandpa!

South Padre Island

We spent Friday in South Padre!
Noah was dressed in his festive
shirt and hat!

One of the souvenir shops we
stopped at.

We ate at a place called Amberjacks
and we had shrimp and swordfish.

We stepped in the ocean but
it was very cold and windy.

Noah stayed inside because of
the wind and sand blowing.
But he caught an alligator to play with!

A day in Mexico!

Noah got a new hat in Mexico!

Being sung to at the restaurant
we ate at. Cory ate Goat!

We ate with G&G's friends in Mexico

The main drag in Progreso

Grandma getting her shoes shined!

We spent a day in Progreso Mexico, shopping, eating & taking in the sights. Crazy how different if it just by crossing over the border. I would take those little ones running around begging for money home if I could! Cory shopped for sunglasses and I bought nothing, can you believe it?!


Grandma and Grandpa have been spoiling Noah and us! We are enjoying our time down here but haven't seen much sun. Could be worse, we could be stuck in the Minnesota cold! Everyone down here thinks it is cold and wearing their winter clothes but Cory is in his shorts and t-shirts.

Our First Family Vacation!

Noah's first airplane ride! We left
for Texas Monday morning. We are
down visiting my Grandparents.

We had Noah eating while we
took off to help with the pressure
on his ears. He slept most of the
flight.

Cory slept most of the way as well!

Noah with Great Grandpa Virgil

A very tired Noah with Great Grandma Mary!

We are spending a week in Texas with my grandparents. We plan to go into Mexico today or tomorrow and to South Padre Island on Friday. Raining this morning but Thursday and Friday are suppose to be in the mid 70s. I will take the rain and cooler Texas weather over the Minnesota cold any day!

"Bodin Stelar Komestakes"

James, Keisha & Bodin!
Bodin was born this afternoon, weighing
in at 8 lbs 3 oz and 20" Long, I think!
Mommy and Baby are doing great!

Noah looks huge now! Bodin has very
big hands though and they looked
bigger then Noah's.

Proud Daddies with their boys!

Proud Auntie! He is a cutie! We were
excited to see him finally!

Bodin and Noah are now 6 months and 2 days
apart! So it will be fun to see them grow up together!

Nevaeh was a proud big sister but I neglected to get a
picture of her. She was wearing a "Big Sister" shirt.

6 Months Old Today!

Noah turned 6 Months today!

Noah doing some "tummy time"!

He rolled over on Saturday
for the first time! Daddy witnessed it.
Here he is half way over.

Hard for me to believe he is such
a big boy already. Seems like he does
something new almost every day.

Were Back!

So I finally got things working again. I posted some pics from Noah's 1st Christmas. These are just some recent pictures of Noah. He is getting to be such a big boy! He is teething and not feeling to good right now. He loves to be sitting up but only can with assistance. So the Bumbo chair works great for him right now! (Thanks Amelia for sharing your Bumbo with Noah!)


He fell asleep hanging onto his toy!

Not liking his hat to much!

Noah saying Hi to all of you!

Christmas in South Dakota!

We traveled to South Dakota to celebrate Christmas
with Cory's side! Santa Claus came and surprised us all by his visit! Amelia wouldn't go near
him but Noah didn't know any better yet. Cory opened gifts for Noah and he got a tonka truck
and an old fashioned radio flyer scooter bike from G&G. Grandpa Lyle fixed it all up for Noah!



G&G and all their Grandchildren!

Ashley made a bear at Build a Bear workshop for Noah!

Christmas at the Lake!

We had Christmas on Saturday the 23rd with my family out at my Parents. It was a really nice day so we played outside some. Notice Mareyn's plate, she couldn't decide on which roll to have so she sampled them all!

Noah had some really nice gifts! Maddie had Noah's name and Noah had Maddie! G & G gave Noah the Walk and Rider!
