Things I have learned recently:
*NEVER leave a bottle of bubble soap open, even if you think it's out of reach
*toys never compare to real "grown up" stuff
*A cow says "boo" (according to Noel)
*there are a few downsides to Daylight Savings, such as Noel getting up with the sun at 6:30 a.m. instead of 7:45
*weekend tv stinks once college basketball is over
*sometimes I have unbelievably high expectations of myself and others, which always leads to disappointment
*If you miss the Kohl's sale that's going on today, don't worry. There will be an even bigger one next week
*However I think Noel is going to act in front of other people, he does the exact opposite
*The book of Judges has some great stories! I can't wait to read them to Noel when he's a little older. Tent pegs through the head? Fat kings getting stabbed in the belly? Come on, that's good stuff!
*We are sooooo glad that spring is here!!!

Traveling Clan
Well, we all made it back from Texas safe and sound. After reading the news yesterday about American Airlines, I'm glad our trip was last week and not this week. YIKES!!
We had a great time with the Collins family. Noel did really well traveling and loved playing with Jude and Mattie. He loved their toy room! And David's flight back to Indy was on time, despite the Brownsville airport losing power. We met up at the airport and headed home without any trouble. We are very blessed!
I'd love to post some pictures right here of Noel, but, as expected, I left my digital camera in Texas. So the pictures will have to wait. I always leave something. Anyway, Noel is doing well. He is talking up a storm. One of the funniest words now is "hawlo" which is what he calls the phone ("hello"). Anytime he sees one, he says it. He has also become the "all gone" police, as we like to call him. If he sees anything that has been emptied (glass, plate, trash, etc.) he shouts out, "All gone!!" Not too much gets by him nowadays.
