The Adventures Of Our Family!: November 2008

Happy Birthday Keith

Beth and I have been friends for half of our lives...crazy!! We met the first day of high school because we were placed in alphabetical order. Beth wrote me a note a few days later with her phone number on it asking if i would like to hang out with her sometime (I actually still have that note!). Anyway, the rest is history...we have been friends ever since.

Today was Beth's son, Keith's, 3rd birthday and we were able to celebrate with him...

The Georgia Aquarium

Last week Allen, Noah, and I went to the Aquarium and had a great time.

Noah loved all the fish...

Allen and Noah loved all the colors and tropical fish...

Me and my little man...

Noah was checking to see if he could find nemo...

He found the seahorses...

And LOVED the moving walkway so he could watch the whale sharks...

check out the size of the stingray...

Noah loved the big stuffed Nemo knock off and kept calling him whenever we passed him...

Noah and the otter...

Check out the awesome turtle...

and the amazing alligator swimming right next to Noah. Just a piece of glass between them...how cool is that?

We got to pet some shrimp and stuff...

And Noah climbed on the kids play fort...

And wanted to slide down the whale slide...

And crawl through the tunnel...

He did this many times...

My little goofball...

I went down the slide too...

whew, we needed a snack after all that fish watching...

We had a great day!!

The Wiggles

Noah and I had a very special treat the other day...the Wiggles!! They were here in Atlanta and thanks to Nonna (my mom), Noah and I had a great time...

Our seats were on the floor so we had a great view and Noah loved dancing in the aisle...

Gas Pedal...

the following is a true conversation between Noah and I on the way home from my moms last night...

Act 1:

It is WAY past bedtime and we are driving home after celebrating Aimee's birthday. Noah wants the light on in the car and I keep telling him "no" because I can't see the road when the inside light is on. Noah is not happy with my decision and keeps asking over and over...

Noah: Mom pleeeeeeeease turn the light on, I can't see (repeat many times)

Meghan: (firmly) Noah, we are NOT turning the light on because I can't see the road with it on (also repeat many times).

Noah: I want it on cause I can't see

Meghan: Noah, it is dangerous to drive with the light on.

Noah: Will a police man give you a ticket?

Meghan: Yes, he could

Noah: Will he take you to jail?

Meghan: I guess he could if i don't follow directions. Jail is like timeout.

(long pause)

Noah: Then I will have to drive?

Meghan: (laughing) yes, then you would have to drive

(even longer pause)

Noah: (a very big sigh)..."well which one is the gas pedal?"

Happy Birthday Aimee!!!

Today is Aimee's 21st birthday!! Happy Birthday Aimee, we love you!!

Jump Zone Fun

One thing about the cold weather is we get to make more visits to Jump Zone with our friends!! Yesterday, we met up with some of the girls in Noah's class and had some fun!
