One last picture of two exhausted kids after a long, long night.

One really cute story about how the night went..... Everyone else got tired, so Alleen asked me if I could take her and Noah trick or treating for a few more houses.... I love trick or treating, so it was no problem with me, and Noah, Alleen and I trudged off to do a few more houses.

After 2 or 3 more houses, Noah complained about his trick or treat bag being heavy and asked if I could carry it.... So we trudged on, with me holding Noah's bag.....

About three houses later, Alleen started complaining about her bag being heavy.... Noah told her "My can carry it Alleen.... My am super strong!'

Noah carried Alleen's bag for the rest of the night, while I carried his....

A Little Pick Up

Daddy, can my have a piggy-bank ride?

Obama

While riding on his bike, on the way back from feeding the ducks, Noah noticed a black guy ride past us on a bike.

Noah: Hey Daddy! That guy looks like Obama!!!!

The Last Piece

Noah and I went on a bike ride to feed the ducks today....

Noah was doing a majority of the feeding, while I was sitting and handing him piece after piece of the bread....

I got up to give Noah the last piece of bread...

Daddy: Ok Noah, this is the last piece of bread....

Noah: This is the last piece? This is the last piece?!?!?!

Daddy: Yup.... This is the last piece, so use it wisely.

Noah: Here Daddy, you can have some of the last piece too....

Thunder

We had an insanely loud thunderstorm in the middle on the night on Tuesday. It lasted for about an hour, but the claps of thunder set off car alarms throughout our neighborhood.

Both Colleen and I asked Noah, at seperate times, if he had heard the thunder.

Mommy asked him in the morning when he woke up...

Mommy: Noah, did you hear the thunder last night?

Noah: No, I didn't hear it because my am brave.

Daddy asked him the next night, when the were going to bed...

Daddy: Noah, did you hear the thunder last night?

Noah: Yes! It said ZOBOOMAFOO!

Boy or Girl

We're going to the doctor today to have the ultrasound that will reveal the gender of our new baby! Noah and I were talking about today's plans, and what we thought the outcome would be....

Daddy: Noah, do you know where we are going tomorrow?

Noah: To the doctor.

Daddy: Yes, we are going to find out if we are having a boy or a girl baby!

Noah: I want a boy...

Daddy: I know, but you're going to be happy whether it's a boy or a girl, right?

Noah: Uh huh.

Daddy: What are you going to say if the doctor says the new baby is a girl?

Noah: Yippee!

Daddy: What are you going to say if the doctor says the new baby is a boy?

Noah: Yippee Yahoo!

Noah's Art

Mommy and Daddy: Ok Noah, it's time for bed.

Noah: Daddy, can we play Little People in my room for just a second?

Daddy: Sure, we can play Little People for five minutes, but then it's time for bed.

Noah: Ok....

So we scurry off to his room, and he starts shuffling through his Little People bin.

Noah: Where's me?!?!?!? Where's me?!?!?!?

Daddy: Me???

Noah: Oh, here I am!

Then he pulls out a toy easel....

Noah: Daddy! Look! Daddy! Look! It's Noah's Art!

We were getting ready for bed, talking to Noah about the meaning of the colors on the street lights...

Daddy: What does a green light mean?

Noah: GO!

Daddy: What does a red light mean?

Noah: STOP!

Daddy: What does a yellow light mean?

Noah: SPEED UP!!!!!!!
