October 2009
We were very excited when we got an invitation to a Halloween party in the mail. Of course, the big question was "What should Noah be?". After searching the stores for two weekends, we had come up with nothing. It seems the Swiss only started celebrating Halloween about 4 years ago and they hadn't gotten passed the vampire or witch stage yet. So, we started trying out a few different ideas......
We considered that he would make a good Johnny Jumper Gymnast. Wrong, he couldn't "pull off" the whole tights thing.
Or maybe R2D2 from Star Wars......
Nope, too confining.
He made a good Swiss Mountain Pole Dancer but we couldn't fit the pole in the car.
We were much relieved when a package from Grandma Cerny showed up with this monkey costume. It was very fitting since we play Crazy Monkey Family around the house on a weekly basis.

It was really fun watching Noah interact and play with the other kids.Now, on to some Random pictures.....
Although he isn't holding his toy phone, he is mimicking Mom and Dad on their cell phones. If you say, "Hey Noah, Hullo?", he will pick up anything nearby and put it to his ear. The past month or so has been a lot of fun. Noah has changed so much. Not only is he eating a ton and growing like a weed, but he has become very inquisitive and is always getting into things. He has also become more playful and interactive with us, from playing ball to wrestling on the floor. 
We don't know where he got this one from, but one day we put this box by the door to be thrown away, when Noah started pushing it around the house collecting all of his toys in it, including Mr. Monkey.
He is definitely very close to walking. Any day now. He makes his way around the house holding on to everything and has a few times taken a step or two in our direction. Stay tuned.... I feel a video moment coming on!
