Noah news

An update on Noah's latest antics:

-A couple of days ago I noticed Noah was clasping his hands together when I put him in his chair for a snack or meal. I quickly figured out he was waiting to say the blessing. We call it prayer hands, and it is one of the cutest things I've ever seen.
-He loves to shake his head "no". He absolutely knows what it means, and does it vigorously any chance he gets.
-Noah gets very jealous when Gary or I sit with or hold Luke. He tries to push him out of our lap or just grabs onto us and cries until we pick him up. I expected Luke to be jealous, but I never thought Noah would be.
-He still likes to share, and one of his favorite things to share is his pacifier. He thinks it's very funny to put it in my or Gary's mouth and then pull it back out.
-He has finally started to enjoy reading, and I discovered today that one of his favorite books is Truck Jam. I think I read it about 10 times in a row this afternoon.
-"Uh-oh" is still his only word besides "mama" and "dada". I think he says "no", too, but I'm not sure if he's actually saying "no" or just making noise.
-Speaking of noise, he constantly makes the sound "eh". Whenever he points to something (and he points to a lot of things), he says, "Eh eh eh." When he wants something, he says, "Eh!" He gets many points across with one little syllable.
-He has a grand total of 5 teeth. He's had 3 on the bottom for a while, and the top 2 finally came in last week. It's so funny to see those big ol' top teeth when he smiles.

I'm sure there's more, but I think that's the best I can do at 9:30 at night!

How I love reading about Noah's news. I'm sure he looks adorable with teeth. Sweet that he knows to fold his hands for prayers. When my Ed was Noah's age, he used"eh" a lot. It does the trick. Thanks for the sweet blog. Hugs and kiss.
