Indy Trip 2011

We were lucky enough to take a trip to Indiana to visit G'ma and G'pa C. and even luckier to have all of Noah's Aunts, Uncle and Cousin come to visit as well!

Noah wasted zero time being shy...


Uncle David getting a little NLC time...

But not for long, cousin Julia (2 yrs 9 months)

wasn't to sure about sharing daddy

Cooling off



Bird hunting with G'ma C. -

they could hear the little baby but couldn't find it

Great Aunt Lillie

Indianapolis Zoo with Emma (3 yrs)

and Grace (1 yr 11 months - just days older than Noah)

Ever tried to get 5 girls and 1 boy together for a picture?

Let's just say it's not very easy.



The girly girls


We had an absolutely wonderful time visiting with the C. family. I was great to have Noah meet all his C. cousins even if they are all girls! It was lovely to see how all the girls are growing and getting to know all their adorable personalities, we miss them terribly and wish we were all closer. For me, the best was seeing how differently our little boy Noah plays compared to the sweet C. girls - it was be part of the male DNA!

Hope to see everyone one soon...if not sooner than the May Wedding! Congratulation Uncle Bryan and (future) Aunt Sarah on your engagement!

Lakeside

We got to spend a weekend at the lake with G'ma S's side - it was a lovely and HOT time.


Great Grandpa Ernie



G'pa S. doesn't like saying NO almost as much....

As Noah doesn't like hearing it!





Only 'cause we were camping did he get to double fist the donuts!



Odds n' Ends of Noah

Time for a hair cut???









Beach Bum















Just a little guy and his seaweed!

Happy 4th!

All G'ma S. wanted was a nice clean picture of the boys in their 4th T's..what was she thinking?


Really? He can climb a bike by himself?

Terrifying!!

Mason must have missed the "Stay Clean" memo...
This is probably my all-time favorite series of pictures






This is probably my favorite of them all...how easily Noah is distracted!


















OMG!!! They are all just way too much fun!!! And cute!!!
