It seems like I have a lot of Noah pictures that include an extremely messy face with either peanut butter or nutella. But, I love this picture because you can really see how huge his eyes are. Everywhere we go people just can't get over his eyes. I agree...they are beautiful!
Noah just turned 20 months old and is really starting to improve in the talking area. His favorite words: more(which I hear one million times a day and kind of wish he didn't know), zoe, max, daddy, noodles, outside, vacuum, dog, bird, plane, ball, elmo, water, bowl, bath, choo choo, car, open, show, fan, and light. They are probably a lot more that he doesn't say as often, I just can't think of them. He is getting good at repeating what I'm saying and you can actually understand what he is saying now. I love that he can talk more BUT he can ask for more stuff now. Which usually leads to me saying no more, and therefore more fits on the floor. However, I'm extremely proud of him and really can't wait for him to learn one more thing...the meaning of "hold on a minute Noah, Mommy is busy". We will celebrate on that day...
Another thing we have been sort of working on is potty training. I don't really know what started it but he loves it. He will sit on the big toilet and go. Even if he doesn't need to go, he will try really hard to squeeze some out. He has even let me know that he has to go "pee-pee" in public and gone to the bathroom instead of the diaper. He got a Thomas the train toilet seat to set on and loves it. Sometimes he does get distracted by the trains though and starts pointing at them and saying "choo-choo" and forgets all about peeing. We are taking it really really slowly but so far so go. Keep you posted on that...
Okay, so Noah is obsessed with shoes these days. At least once a day, he goes to his closet and pulls out all his shoes (or mine or Matt's) to try on and stomp around in for a few minutes. Here are a couple of his favorites - Mommy's boots and his black dress shoes:
