Boys and dirt

We are back in Kauai after our wonderful 3 week trip to the mainland! I have LOTS of photos to post from our adventures but I haven't had a chance to upload them to our computer yet let alone blog about it all. But no worries, I promise I will eventually get around to blogging about all the fun we had :-)

For now, here's a picture I just took of Noah happily playing in our backyard. Who needs a sandbox (not to mention that we have a massive amount of sand not that far from our house...) when you have a nice pile of dirt and rocks in your backyard?

Seasoned Traveler

We are off on our big 3 week adventure to the Midwest!

Noah was very excited to have his own backpack and suitcase, and of course he insisted on pulling his suitcase all by himself!

Buckling himself up for our 6 hour overnight flight to Phoenix 

I was trying to take a picture of Noah after he fell asleep on the plane because he looked so cute with all of his stuff, but the flash lit up on my phone and apparently woke Noah up. So in this photo you can see his little grin because he knows I'm taking his picture :-)

Last day of swim lessons

Noah and I just finished a Mommy & Me swimming lesson session. He is really coming along with his swimming, and given enough practice I think might be swimming on his own by his birthday! 

Currently, he loves to jump into the pool all by himself and swim around with just the assistance of a noodle. Fortunately/unfortunately, he thinks he can swim a little better than he really can, and he's been known to suddenly ditch his noodle (which leads to him sinking...haha)

Here are some photos of the last day of swimming lessons. Noah finally got to go down the water slide, something he's been dying to do since we moved here!

Baby Fletch #2 update

Since we are in the middle of our 5 hour drive to Nebraska, I thought this would be a good time to do some blog updating with some of the photos I have on my phone!

Here is a photo of bump #2 (and Noah...since he wants to be in all of the photos apparently):

17 weeks

The next photo I'm posting on here purely for self motivation purposes post-baby!

My 5k running time at 17 weeks

 

 

 

The BIG news we got at 19 weeks is that Baby Fletch #2 is a healthy baby boy!!! So Mommy will  be even more outnumbered come September. We are all very excited for another boy and hopefully a little brother will be able to keep up with Noah and help provide an outlet for all his energy!

I like to call this the $$$ shot ;-)

Here's the most recent baby bump picture I have:

20 weeks

I finally "popped" a bit last week so I will try and remember to take another photo next week when baby bump #2 is 24 weeks.
