April Fun











Hey everybody! Hope everyone's having a good April. I had a really nice visit last weekend with Grammy and Grandpa. Luckily the weather was really nice so we got to spend some time outside.






We had a great visit and I can't wait to see them when we visit Minnesota in a few weeks- and I hope the weather stays nice too!

I've been doing a whole lot of new things since I last posted here. I'm starting to say more and more words- I've said "cup" more than once, I say "hi" all the time, and Cousin Daniel swears he heard me call Lightning McQueen by name today. I'm also completely off of baby food, and off the bottle and on to the sippy cup!

I'm also clapping, and can raise my arms too. Here's a video of me doing a few of my new tricks:

Of course, I've learned another trick that was even harder- I can crawl all the way up the stairs! Here I am in action:

Anyway, I've been having a lot of fun hanging out with my cousins Daniel and Joshua at Mommom's house during the week:
Mommom, Daniel and I

Joshua and I park our strollers next to each other
Here's a video of a frequent pastime of Daniel and I: screaming fight!:
And here Joshua and I play with toys- and I quickly gain an advantage:

Last week, I got to see Poppop Joe and Mommom Ev, who are back from their winter in Florida. I'm so glad I get to see them all the time this summer:

Here are some other highlights of what I've been up to lately:
I just got a new haircut- don't I look different?


These two pictures may look similar, but they were actually taken 12 hours apart

Playing with Griffey the Wombat
Want some wine?
Out to dinner with my parents and grandparents
Taking a walk around the neighborhood- I'll be walking too before long!
Anyway, I'm excited to go up to New Jersey next weekend and see a whole of lot of my family at Passover. That's all for now, thanks for reading everyone!

Love,
Noah

March Madness





 Hey everyone! Another exciting week here in the Silver household. I'm very, very close to walking- the other day I walked a couple of steps while holding one of Mommy's hands! I also clapped my hands for the first time this week- and I've been sticking out my tongue a lot. Ahhhhh
But I'm still mostly crawling and climbing. You can see me doing both in this video Daddy took of me:
Also, as you can see in this picture, I grabbed Daddy's Sports Illustrated, opened it, and sat down in my chair to read. Daddy was very proud of me!
 
Anyway, here are some more highlights of what I've been up to:
I like other magazines, too.
On the carousel at the Please Touch Museum with Mommom

Mmm, shelves taste good!
Negotiating with Cousin Daniel over toys
Having a bottle with my drinking buddies
Skyping with Grammy, Grandpa and Lucy the Dog
Stroller fun
And finally, here's a video Mommom put together of a day I spent in the city last week:


 That's all for now, thanks for reading!

Love,
Noah

Now With Twice the Teeth





Getting better with the sippy cup...
and the bottle too


Getting in the March Madness spirit
Chillin' on the couch



Let me just flip this around and we'll get started!
Hey everybody! First of all, sorry about not writing for the last few weeks. I've been super-busy. But the good news is, spring is finally here! I've already been outside a few times, and I'm looking forward to getting out even more.

The big news is, after about six months of having only my two lower front teeth, I've now got two on top, too! It's certainly going to make eating easier than its been.

We had a fun weekend. Yesterday, Mommy and Daddy and I went to the park, and today, we went with Cousin Daniel, Aunt Hannah and Uncle Kyle to my first Purim carnival at their synagogue! Then we went back to their house and played.

I'm still doing all the usual things- eating, sleeping, reading books with Mommy and Daddy and crawling around quickly. But what I've really loved doing lately is playing with blocks. Here's a video of just that:

I think I can say at this point that yellow is my favorite color.

Anyway, here are a few other highlights of what I've been up to:
Playing cars with Cousin Daniel
Eating Woody from Toy Story

Sometimes I get crabby in the morning

At a karate banquet with Mommy, Aunt Debra, Cousin Joshua and Sensei- you'll be seeing me at the dojo!




Swingin' at the park
Getting an early start on my Bar Mitzvah studies


Wrestling with Cousin Daniel



That's all for now, happy spring everyone!

Love,
Noah
