My bottle, Diaper, door!

On monday we went to our friends' home for their memorial day party. There was a woman sitting down with a water bottle at her feet. Noah snuck past her and took it. When we said "Noah that is not yours you need to give it back" he replied "my bottle" I couldn't believe it his first two word combo and i couldn't celebrate, because i was in the midst of disciplining him.
then on Tuesday, while i was changing Soren's diaper, Noah was watching and when i turned to grab the fresh diaper he said "diaper" and handed it to me.
Then this morning when i said lets go outside, he pointed to the front door and said "door" which sounded like DOH. He's getting so big and he's doing so much stuff that he wasn't doing only weeks, days ago. I can't believe it!
At aunt Kami's wedding this weekend, he was the ringbearer, and had a little tuxedo on! It was so cute. Ashlyn his cousin had her little flower girl dress on and she was playing with him in one of the back rooms of the church. The photographer got a really good picture of them kissing on the lips! soooo cute. i will post a picture of it when i get it and figure out how to do that.

The Ringbearer!

This weekend Noah is going to be wearing his first tuxedo! And he's going to look sooooooooo cute! His Aunt Kami is getting married, and we're all so excited! Ryan is a groomsman, I'm a bridesmaid, and most importantly... Noah is a ringbearer! I don't know how far he and Ashlyn will make it down the aisle, or if they will at all... hopefully they are happy and good, but we will see!
This last weekend Noah stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Winslow again while Ryan and I were at Jason and Kami's bachelor/bachelorette parties. There he got into the pond which was pretty exciting cause there's golfish galour in that thing, luckily, it was just his hands not his whole body, like he wanted. (thanks grammy)
Today we had a breakthrough on the hitting... When Noah went to hit Soren (his little friend) I said "no"and he stopped in mid-air!! this happened twice! even if it was fleeting and he doesn't fully get it it yet, i saw something click in his little brain... It was such a great feeling, because Ryan and I have felt ineffectual as parents when it comes to the hitting. It's been almost 7 months of being consistent and saying "NO" each time, taking away the toy, not showing affection, and blah blah blah blah blah! I was starting to feel like he would never get it. So yay for small victories!
Also he like scrambled eggs now, and he says "baby," and "shhh" while sneaking in a crouched down position...
YAY for month sixteen! I wonder how much different he'll be at 18 months... I'm a little nervous to see ;^)
