It's A Boy!

Today we went to the doctor and found out I am 18 weeks along and we are having another boy! Noah is not sure as to what is going on, but i know he will love having a brother so close in age to him. I originally wanted a little girl, being that this is our last baby, but i know God has bigger better plans for our family, and we cannot be happier! Atleast we know what to expect for the most part! :)

Our upcoming week!

We have a very busy, exciting week for us Norley's! So needless to say i may not be posting very much until next weekend! My school schedule is out of control due to the end of the semester coming up, Nick is very very busy with work, and Friday we are taking Noah on his very 1st trip to Disney World! Nan, i know you keep up with our blog so i wanted to thank you and Smokey for the tickets! Noah is so very very excited, and i will use the camera that i know i can get all my pictures on!! :) We are leaving Friday afternoon time and hopefully getting up there before dark. Luckily Auntie Amanda is going to be in Orlando so we are going to try and match schedules and meet for dinner or some kind of fun. We are staying at the Disney All Star movie resort, they have themed rooms, can you guess which one we are staying in? Toy Story! They also have 30 foot tall Buzz and Woody figurines, Noah is going to freak! :) Then on Saturday we are going to go to Magic Kingdom for the day and then at night go to MGM to see the Christmas light decorations! We are hoping it is an enjoyable weekend for all of us, keep your fingers crossed Noah does well! :)

New Car

Dylan was so nice and gave Noah is battery operated ride in car! Noah was so excited to drive it, he's still a little too short to get his feet fully on the bottom peddle, which means he cant steer straight all the time! :)

Halloween Day!

Finally I've gotten to the most exciting day of all Halloween! During the day Nick, Noah and I finally got to spend an entire morning by ourselves together, which doesn't happen very often. We ran a few errands and took Noah to our neighborhood park, we then came home and baked cupcakes for everyone at Amie's. Noah really loved baking the cupcakes, but was soo excited to dress up as Woody! We even got a little surprise from Daddy, who bought a costume without us knowing :) We went to Amie's for trick-or treating, when we got there I put Noah in his costume, and he was a little weary and stand offish for about 30 minutes, he didn't fully understand why everyone was dressed up. He finally warmed up to it, and we went trick or treating, he loved it, we went with Dylan and Toby, Uncle Jacob, Lindsey, Uncle Jeff and "Mario" as Noah was calling Nick all night. The only time he really got scared and wanted me to pick him up is when there were scary people dressed up sitting in chairs. All in all he did great and had so much fun!
While we were stirring he kept trying to lick the batter.

Yummy!!
Here is silly Daddy dressed as Mario!
Still in his shy mode.

Painting and Carving Pumpkins

Last weekend we met up with Jimenez's so the kids could paint pumpkins and they had a ball! After Nick Noah and I carved out our pumpkin and Noah had so much fun, he loved cleaning out the seeds and throwing them on the baking sheet!

Halloween Festivities

Happy Halloween! This past week, we did a lot to start getting ready for Halloween, we went to the pumpkin patch, got trick or treat decorations, painted pumpkins, and made Halloween cupcakes. Now since i have most of the pictures on my computer, i will put some up each day this week leading up to Noah's big trick or treating night. He is going to be Woody, from Toy Story, and he is so excited, he walks around saying, " Howdy partner". :)

KEYS Aug 2010 (FINALLY)

I was finally able to download my pictures from one of my cameras onto our computer, just not the one with all of Noah 2nd birthday pictures on it. SO needless to say, I will be posting a lot the next couple days! :) Here is when we went to the Keys with the Allen's and Granny.

This is why we call him a "monkey".

NOAH! We still need naps!

The time has come where Noah has been fighting me tooth and nail to take a nap! He will lay in his crib for an hour to an hour and a half and not fall asleep, and when the time has passed, its too late for him to fall asleep. We still need these naps, he is really cranky the next day, even though he goes to bed earlier than his bedtime, he is missing an extra 3 hours of sleep! While he is in his crib, he is standing playing with his fan switch turning it on and off watching it, and now he is trying to climb out!! YES i said it , climb out! Yesterday i walked into get him ( after not falling asleep) and both feet were off the great one leg was thrown over the crib. Luckily i walked in when i did, because on his crib or around it, there is nothing for him to put his leg on. So i think this week, i am going to try and transition him into his toddler bed. Not only to keep him safe from hurting himself but also to have him trained by the time the baby gets here. I will update on how crazy this adventure is going to be :)

Here is Noah through his video monitor staring at the fan while switching it on and off! Sorry about the very scary eyes ;)
