Saturday, mommy, daddy, gammy, Bailey, and I hung out while poppy worked. Aunt Lori came to visit for a while and once again I talked everyone's ears off on Saturday (I just love telling stories and chatting with anyone who will listen...sometimes I keep talking even if no one is around)! :) Gammy, Bailey, mommy, daddy, and I went for a stroll to the park around the corner from Gammy's. The park had a couple baby swings so I got to swing for my first time. Gammy stuffed towels in the swing though because I am still a little too small for them...but it worked and it was fun! The park has so much fun stuff to do but I'm not quite big enough...but when I get bigger it is going to be soooo much fun playing there!! That night I had dreams of running around, swinging and sliding with my cousin Addison when we are visiting gams and poppy!!!
Then we went to great-grandma and great-grandpa's for a quick visit. Great-grandpa held me for a little while and we chatted. Great-grandpa tells really funny stories so we were just having a ball! Mommy forgot her camera though so I'm going to have to get a picture with great-grandpa next time. Then we went home so poppy could hang out with me for a little before I went to bed.On Sunday we went to my Aunt Bec and Uncle Bo's house in Caesar Creek. It's actually mommy's aunt and uncle but they are way too young and cool to put a "great" in front of. They have the coolest house..the stone house people call it....uncle Bo built it all by himself (pretty much....a few friends and his brothers helped a little I think). It took him almost 10 years. He was working while building his house so he just worked on it in his spare time (ie. every minute when he wasn't working). He also has a huge greenhouse and a pool house and a pool....once again he built all of this by himself....even the pool! Most of mommy's family was there for the pool party so I got to hang out with all of my aunts, uncles (great's...even though we don't call them great's and my regular aunt and uncle (Kristi and Dustin)), my cousin Addison, and lots of my second and third cousins. Mommy dressed me in my crab swim trunks and crab tee-shirt and my hat that Shari (mommy works with Shari) gave me so I could go swimming! Mommy took me in with her and dipped my feet and legs in. It was a little chilly compared to my baths but I loved it! It was very, very sunny out so I had to borrow my cousin Addison's shades!!! I didn't swim for long because mommy didn't want me out in the sun too long so my precious skin doesn't get any of those bad, bad things the sun can give. I had a great day hanging by the pool, swimming, and yes....talking to all of my family!! I was so busy talking to everyone that the day just flew by. I just had so much fun...I can't wait for the next pool party!
I was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as we pulled out of the driveway and it's a good thing I did b/c then mommy, daddy, and gammy witnessed something horrible. Mommy is actually writing this part because she said I am not allowed to know what happened....and mommy's not going to go into too much detail but she will give you a little summary of the horrible event. As we were pulling out of Bec and Bo's neighborhood, there was a car pulled off on the side of the road and a man walking in the grass toward a deer (a baby deer) that he had just hit....oh those poor deer, I wish they would look before they crossed the street! Well this all happened in just a matter of seconds but I (Noah's mommy) (and gammy, and daddy too) witnessed this man put the deer out of it's pain from being hit by the car. I about lost everything I ate at the party and immediately had tears running down my cheeks. It was an awful, awful thing to witness (and yes, I know that the deer would have just layed there and suffered for hours and the man thought he was doing the deer a favor...but I just wished I would not have seen it). I said two prayers to God as I drove away crying. First I asked God to please let that deer go to heaven and then I thanked God that Noah was still a baby and too young to see what had just happened because if a child had witnessed that they wouldn't of understood why it happened. Then I tried my hardest to put the images out of my head so I could concentrate on driving. We got back to gammy's, I gave Noah a bath, kissed my little angel a million times, and put him down for bed around 8:30. All the swimming (and talking) :) he did must have seriously worn him out because he didn't wake until 9:30am!!!! He ate a little and went back to sleep until 11am!!!!
Okay, mommy said I could write again. Today we had to leave gammy's and go back to Cleveland. Gammy and I played a little this morning and then we got in the car around my nap time. The trip back was similar to the trip down... I slept for a little over 2 hours again...we stopped so I could eat and then mommy sat in the back and entertained me for the last hour!
After we got home, mommy got a call from Gammy who told her that my Aunt Mickey had her baby today!!! It's her fifth child and Mickey was at the pool party yesterday lounging in the pool with her big belly. She just looked so relaxed...she must have know yesterday was her last day to do that for a while!!! :) Mickey had a baby boy today!!! YEAH!!!! Another playmate!!!! :) Baby boy Haines doesn't have a name yet but he is going to be a great playmate/cousin (2nd, that is) of mine...I just know it!!! Baby boy Haines was 10 pounds, 6 ounces and 23 inches long!!! Can you imagine what her belly looked like yesterday?!?!? :)
