Hello, Baby Noah!

Auntie Angie and Uncle Curt came to town this weekend!  It was the first time we've gotten to meet Baby Noah, who's now about 6 months old.  Gramma and Grampa P were here too for the weekend, and while short, it was lots of fun.  Evan couldn't have been more excited to see Gramma and Grampa... until he saw Noah.

Evan's obsessed with babies.  Even before he knew he was getting a little brother or sister this Spring, he loves to go in the baby room at school and always points out babies wherever we go.  He's very kind and gentle with them, and is completely enamored.  So to have a baby almost of his own for the weekend was a complete joy.  He helped by unpacking Angie's entire diaper bag to get each and every toy for Noah, and wanted to know what he was doing at all times.  Evan asked to hold Noah, so we sat the two of them in Evan's chair.  They were both super happy to snuggle and laugh together.
 



A teacher at school came up to me later in the week and congratulated us on having a girl, and what an interesting girl's name.  What, I wondered?  We don't find out the gender of the baby and we certainly don't have names picked out yet.  Hmm.  When I questioned her, she laughed and told me that Evan has been telling everyone all week that he's having a baby sister - named Noah.  I guess he just loves his cousin.
