What kind of day will we have?

 
     Well some days are laid back and easy but most days are so busy we cannot take a breath without Noah getting into something. For example one day Noah and I stayed home and by 9:00 Noah climbed on the entertainment center, on top of the kitchen table and while I was doing the dishes he opened the oven door climbed on top of it and was trying to climb on top of the oven to the counter by using the oven racks. Now that was a day!!
     Most of you may know already but my daddy comes over on Saturday and Sunday mornings to get Noah so that his baby girl can sleep. This also gives Noah and bad poppa quality time! Well this morning Mom and dad were going to take him to Brady and Brooks soccer game while I went to clean the daycare. They are getting ready to leave when Noah gets the keys to moms car puts them in the ignition and cranks the car. By the way mom was standing beside the car and I think dad was in the car he was not unattended. Well you can already tell what kind of day today will be.
      Does Noah watch the soccer games? Well no daddy takes him to play at the playground where he climbs up about 15 to 20 steps and slides down. No fear in Noah (it’s the Hosmer in him). After the games and I get done cleaning I meet Tommy, Cindy, Brady, Brooks, Nana, Dad, Mom and Noah at Zaxbys for lunch. Noah is sitting in a big chair and says MOMMY!!! Gosh I love being called that! After lunch I take Noah to aunt Kels so he can play with JP and I can lay on the couch and watch tv. Going to Kels makes me lazy and the boys just play. Jonathan likes having Noah to play with and Noah likes playing with all JP toys! JP keeps taking the hat off Noah not trying to be mean but just trying to take it off and put it back on, well Noah does not like that so I said "just tell him no" Noah turns around and says "No No" while pointing his finger at him. Guess that was my fault but it was cute so Kels and I laugh. So they play more running around the house and I hear them pulling on the gate at the bottom of the stairs. Since I am lazy at Kels I say "oh they can't get that gate down" The more cautious parent goes to check and finds Noah has knocked down the gate and climbing over it and up the stairs. Guess Noah can get the gate down!! Then they play some more and Noah sits in JP little chair drinking his drink. JP walks up to him and Noah starts kicking him. I tell him to stop but Noah decides he didnt kick him hard enough so he kicks him harder and pushes him down. OMG!! I get in Noah's face and tell him that what he did was ugly and not nice and he needs to tell him he is sorry. Noah pats him on his head. Then I say we are going bye bye and JP gets all excited like he is going too. So I say "come on JP lets go" and Kel is saying " No you can’t leave me" Noah goes up to Kel and tries to pick up JP like he does the baby puppy and tries to give JP to me like here mom lets go! It was too funny!
     So on our way home I completely forget we have to go get a birthday present for a party tomorrow. I run in Target and the whole time I am trying to find a present for a two year old Noah is waving at EVERYONE in the store. Then a little girl passes with a passy in her mouth and Noah goes crazy yelling Passy mom Passy passy pointing and just yelling. I explain to him that is her passy and noah does not have a passy because he threw it away. (if you don’t know the story in the grocery store Noah threw his passy down the aisle while throwing a fit and that’s how we got rid of the passy) It has been months since we did away with the passy and he still ask for it daily. It kinda saddens me. After we leave there I go meet the girls that I am babysitting tonight. They are spending the night with us and hanging out with us tomorrow. Well we get home and mom comes over to see the girls. For some reason Meagan Mom and Noah go outside to play while kaelin and I are baking a cookie cake. Mom starts calling for us so we go outside and Noah is in the big swing swinging by himself. Then we bring him in for a bath and he would NOT take a bath until mom Kaelin and Meagan and I were in the bathroom where he could see that he was not missing anything exciting. We finally got him to bed! Then the girls decorated the cookie cake and we ate ice cream and cookie cake! Promise I will not blog everyday but since I am just starting out I want you all to get know us!

P.S. I didn’t forget to write about Katie (Andy's Wife) I am just waiting to write a whole blog on her cause she is awesome and Noah loves her)

Stay tuned....

First Post

Ok since I always have so much to say about Noah and this crazy family I am going to try to blog at least once a week. If you do not know us very well I am going to give a little information about each of us. I hear that the more personal your blogs are that the more interested people are so here goes our first blog.
      Craig is working at Jim Walter #4 shift 6 days a week. He also has a Harley streetbob, I think, and loves it. I can''t deny that I love it too. Most of Craigs family is in Georgia and he does not get to see them as much as he would like too. His sister Kelli lives here in Alabama with us and her son is three months younger than Noah. Kelli and I try to get together once a week but most of the time it is like once every couple of weeks. Chris, Craigs brother lives in Florida with his Wife(Jenifer) and son(Branham). Branham is around seven or eight months older than Noah.
       I am currently substituting in Jefferson and Tuscaloosa county schools. I stay pretty busy subbing at least three times a week if not more. I clean Noahs daycare two nights a week and also tutor three days a week after school. I graduated in May 2011 with Early /Elementary Education and applying for any job that comes along. We live beside my mom and dad and love it here. My mom (BeBe) and dad(Bad Poppa) love being around Noah and seeing him everyday. Noah loves them just as much. They help us out so much and we are so grateful for them. I do not know what I woulld do with out them. Andy (my brother) is married and living in Mobile. We miss him tons but we talk often and it gives us a free place to stay at the beach so can't complain to much. He is happy and doing so well in life that we are nothing but happy for him.
     Oh my Noah!! He is 21 months and totally and completely full of him self! He is growing up so much and learning new things everyday. He is so funny! My blogs will mostly be all about him and the things he does. He is all boy and loves it outside. He would rather be outside than anywhere. He loves motorcycles (vroomvroom)tractors, his cars and tricycles. He constantly eats dog food and he also loves mojo (our famiy boxer). Mojo is the best dog he lets Noah do whatever he wants to him. Most days Noah will push me to my limits but I love him more than life its self and wil  do anything for my baby boy. Noah stays with mom some days I work and also he goes to daycare. Noah is all smiles he looks like his daddy but he has his momma in him. Noah is very compassionate and loving baby.
Noah is talking and lately he has been trying to form sentences. Like today I said "(huffed) gosh its hot out" Noah replies "(huff) osh hot" well my lesson start watching what you say. We are trying to potty train him and that is a challenge!! He tries but I just feel like he should understand after the one hurndreth million time I take himto they potty. Noahs favorite person is his Bad Poppa. Noah loves to get the screwdriver and "fix it." Tonight he went straight to the junk drawer got the screwdriver out brought his plastic car to Craig and said "fix it" Noah climbed up on the couch and started working on his car. He watches his bad poppa work on things and bad poppa will pretend show him how to fix things. Noah remebers a lot I can be looking everywhere for something and ask noah where it is and he goes straight to it. Noah thinks everything is funny no matter what he is always laughing and smiling. He will chase us around the house trying to run us over with his car then give you a hug and kiss. I call him my little sourpatch kid, sour at first sweet at the end. His favorite book is Good Night Moon. He can almost read the book. He tells me what everything is and can to point anything in the book. He will close it and say "goodnight moon!"
I hope you enjoy my blogs from here on out.
