Spring Break
(Click on images for larger picture)

March brought better weather and spring breakers from back east

Noah's spring break activities included an adventure in the neighborhood park with Grammy and Grandpa Bourque

There's a little toddler girl just to the left of this picture, and Noah's doing his best to look cool

There were a couple of firsts on this adventure. Noah got to swing in his first "big-boy" swing

He loved every minute

Noah also got to go down his first slide. He wasn't so sure what to think. . .

But Daddy took all the bumps and bruises for him. Lesson learned: don't ride the small curvy slide if you have no padding on your hips

Grammy's locket was fascinating

And so was the camera

That night, Dan and Angie went on a date and left Noah with his grandparents to get a bath

It's a little after Christmas, but Noah was practicing his "Noah-lou Who" role for next year's Grinch play

Grandpa makes funny faces

And Grammy likes to read

"Who's that?"

"Wait. . . I know you"

"Yeah, you're that really funny guy who's always taking pictures of me"

Of course, what the previous pictures DON'T show is that Noah cut 3 teeth the weekend his grandparents were in town. He was a pretty good sport about it

And what are new teeth good for? Trying more foods I don't like, of course! We passed this experiment off to Grandma Edwards

One of Noah's favorite things is a LeapPad--it's an electronic board you put special books in and it reads them and lets you play games. This one is a Dr. Seuss book called "Mr. Brown." Noah just dances and dances when the music's going

Angie and Noah love to go outside during the day. Today, Noah was making some extra-cute faces. . .

Faces of all varieties. . .

And, of course, his trademark big grins

There were some funny food faces in there too (eating rice cakes)

March 27th was Easter, so we took some Easter pictures of the family. Noah thought his shoes were a lot more interesting than silly old pictures

When he finally looked up, he was giving us his best impression of "Baby Bob" from the Quizno's commercials

Easter shoes make a great lunch

Noah got a little rocking horse for Easter. He's still not quite sure what to do with it, but let's just say the ears ended up like the shoes

April started with shopping. Noah loves trying to keep his balance in shopping carts

We also went hiking at Palmer Park again. This time, Noah rode on Daddy's back
