Trains

Noah loves to play trains. He can play with trains for a long time! We really love this Geotrax set he got for his 3rd birthday. We've added to it a few times. It's great for younger kids!


Chicago

We went to an awesome children's museum in Chicago. Noah loved it! This room was the water room. You could sail boats and try to control the flow of the water. In this picture, Noah is experimenting with pulleys. There was digging for dinosaur bones, making forts, role-playing a fire fighter, huge rope ladders to climb, and more. Another aspect that was awesome was the fact that the museum is on the Navy Pier. We ate lunch on the pier at Bubba Gump's & took a speed boat tour on the lake! It was a fantastic day!!!


Day out with Thomas

We took Noah to "A Day Out with Thomas" in Durango.  Noah really enjoyed the train ride.  We bought all day passes and rode on Thomas several times. There were lots of fun things for Noah to do.  What a wonderful day!


Golf Cart Time

When we went to Farmington, Noah asked his great grandfather to take him on a golf cart ride.  He loved it!  I love how you can see his little hand on his great grandfather's leg!  So precious!  :)


Mud

Noah loves mud!  If there isn't any, he'll make it.  If there is some, he'll make more!  He doesn't make mud pies. He loves to throw mud at the wall!  He loves to walk in it and feel the mud squish in between his toes.  Of course, he absolutely loves the water hose.  He will spray you!


Soccer practice

Noah began soccer last Monday at Scotsdale's Upward Soccer.  He loved doing the exercises to warm up.  It was very hard for him to wait his turn in the drills.  At the end of practice, his coach said, "You're going to be the death of me!" while he laughed.  I said something about waiting is hard for three year olds. He was shocked that Noah was only 3.  Several kids on his team are 5, but he kept up pretty well with them.  I think he likes soccer.  Now, if only we can keep those hands off that ball!  :)


Noah & DOUGHNUTS

This is how Noah eats a doughnut!  Yes, he was done when I took the picture.  Too funny!
