Daddys' L'il Gift

Hello everyone.
I hope you are not waiting too long between posts to read these and see the new pictures, as I am finding what seems like one day after my last post is really 2 or 3 weeks.

Noah had a dr's appt today and he is doing great. He is upto 8lbs 11oz and is doing exactly what a bay "his age" should be doing. That is great news as we are always a little concerned about the fact that he was born a little early. The doctor did inform us that developmentally Noah will be a couple months slower during this stage but should catch up by about 8 months. This is wonderful news. His Umbilical Hernia is nothing to be concerned about at this stage and is not causing him any pain so that is very good.

Noah is still quite the night owl. I have been putting his resume out in the local bars needing a bartender. I figure if he is going to be awake all night he could be at least working. We are currently working to find a reason for his gassyness but apparently it is not to serious at this stage and should go away.

I have almost finished my first project for Noah. Believe it or not, I made Noah a Canucks Toy Box. I found an old box at a thrift store and fixed it and repainted it. It came out not to bad. Just a few touch ups and its all done. I don't think its a coincidence that the Canucks are having their best season the same year he is born.




Yesterday Grandma Schofield had a small shower for Noah to meet all his cousins and it was a great time. Noah got so many great and amazing gifts. He is very lucky to have a family that loves him so much. Noah is excited for his parents to stop being so lazy and get his room done so that he can try out his new turtle night light from Aunty Ang. Although I admit all of Noahs gifts were amazing, my favorite were his socks that he got.
Well thats it for now.. As much fun as it is to write about him, it is more fun to go and play with him. So with that said I am attaching some great new photos and I am off to play. Julia calls it bothering him. LOL

So in the mean time and in between time... enjoy the photos.  

Are we doing this right?

auditioning for The Fighter 2. He will play "Irish" Mickey Ward, the early years.

Noah is doing great.....

Hi everyone,

My deepest apologies for how long this post has taken to get up. It has just been crazy since Noah came home from the hospital. Friends and family can warn you all day long, but you really have to experience all the highs and lows with your own little one to appreciate it. Haha

Noah is doing great. He has gained 3lbs since he came home just before Christmas '10 and now weighs 7lbs 14oz. He is definitely a night owl like his daddy. Noah just loves being up at night and hasn't missed a 330am rerun of "Night Court" since he came home. Thank you DejaVu.

Health wise Noah is doing exceptional, the doctor is very happy with his progress. He does have an Umbilical Hernia. The doctor was not to worried about it and says it should go away on its own. He is eating lots and feeding is different now. He is feeding about every 2 1/2 hrs .. give or take. Today was shot day for Noah and he received his first round of shots. 2 months old already. I think he is feeling the effects of the shot has he has a slight fever, isn't eating much, is docile and decided to projectile vomit all over mommy. Oh the joys. It has been such an joyous time to have him home. The runover nights to morning , sure they suck, but when he smiles (well.. passes gas), his cute little face makes it all worth it.

I have some updated photos below. I will have more soon.
