Life with a toddler...

is so much fun....but boy am I exhausted! I knew once Noah started walking, he would be going everywhere. But I had no idea just how much this little guy was truly capable of until I actually saw it with my own eyes. We've realized just how childproof our house is NOT since he's begun walking, but we're working on that. And we absolutely cannot take our eyes off of him for one second, or he'll be trying to get into something he shouldn't be, and laughing the whole time. I have to say though, watching him walk is one of the most awesome, funny and exciting things ever. It's so cute, since he's still wobbly sometimes, he looks like he's doing a little jig when he walks.

But he can go really long distances now without falling and can walk outside all the way to the neighbors house. He still gets so excited for himself and makes this squealing sound when he does it, and then if he falls, he'll usually start clapping for himself before he can even get off his face...I've never seen anyone clap as much as this kid! And there is no more crawling....I mean none. I literally don't think I've seen him crawl once since he started walking a few weeks ago. And just yesterday, Mrs. Tracy said they were moving to another room in the house and she put her hand out for him to hold and said, "Come on, let's go" and he shook his head. So she did it again, and he shook his head no again. He didn't need any help! He's really started to figure out this shaking his head thing, which I'm not sure where it came from.

We also discovered last weekend while at Nanette and Papaw's house, that he may have a future as a mini Evel Knievel after showing us some tricks on his four-wheeler.

Then he took a ride on the big 4-wheeler and of course loved it, as you can probably tell by his clapping once again.

Then he wanted to drive the Ranger, so of course we obliged.

All in all, we had a fun weekend and it was nice to have a little help keeping up with this active guy....

I'm so proud of him and can't wait to see what he gets into this summer. I know we're going to have fun though because with this little clown, there's never a dull moment!
