8 months!

Noah has his first little stomach bug :(
I'm very thankful for my sweet husband who took care of him yesterday while I was at work. Noah is snoozing as I type. It's amazing that he still has the happy-go-lucky personality though he feels bad! I'm so glad!!
This was a big week of firsts:
Starting back at daycare and meeting new friends
Crawling ALL over the house--watch out!
Getting a tooth (finally!)
Pulling up to stand (piano bench comes in handy for this!)

Book Worm

I think Noah likes his basket of books? What do you think?! I had fun taking him to the Fayetteville Public Library a couple of times for their baby book worm story time. Hoping he loves to read as much as I do!

Water Baby

Noah LOVES the water: Swimming pool, bath time, wading pool in the backyard, sink.... you name it and he loves to splash around! Can't wait to take him to the beach in a week and a half!

Fayetteville, AR

We have been in Fayetteville now for a little over a week! In same ways, it feels like home, and in many other ways, it still seems like we are here on an extended visit. It's a little strange to not really know anyone in the area... but I know as soon as I start work, Brandon starts law school, and we get involved at church, we will quickly find some friends! We did find a church not too far from our house that we really liked with lots of young families.
We are feeling relatively settled into our house--in a way, it feels like home since we are surrounded by the same furniture and decorations. We have met several neighbors--all very nice and welcoming. The family across the street had us over to swim in the pool on Saturday, and the next door neighbors brought us some yummy cookies last night, plus a list of good information about doctors, vets, places to eat, etc. All in all, I think we are going to really like it here.


 Kitchen--I am getting used to using the step stool in order to reach pretty much everything above the bottom shelves!
 
 Curtains to come for the dining area. Lots of light, and a good view of the backyard!

 Guest room/Brandon's office/craft room (note, we have an extra bed--so come visit us!!)

Laundry room--my dad hung these great shelves for us!
