February and March were apparently as uneventful as January as indicted by my lack of pictures. As usual I have plenty of pictures of Noah and Alyssa. They are so cute together. Do you think it is a little too old school to arrange their marriage already?!

The cute couple watching a movie together. LOL! Although Jon said Alyssa is not allowed to start dating till she is 30!



Opps...got caught!!!

January was an uneventful month in terms of Noah and all his activities. Him and Justin went to North Carolina to visit aunt Sarah and uncle Scott. Unfortunately, they both got sick and a deer ran into Justin's car. Nice, huh?

Here are a few pictures of Justin and Noah playing around, dancing to Imagination Movers and playing the piano.

Christmas 2009

We were in PA as usual for Christmas. Christmas Eve was spent with my family and Christmas day with the Kapers. We were also able to spend some quality time with Carly, Geoff and Chloe.

Chloe was nice and shared her chair & toys with Noah....



Christmas Eve night @ my parents.


Poor guy was worn out after a long day of traveling around to see family.



Aunt Sarah and Noah on Christmas morning

Alligator Farm and Aquarium

In December Justin took Noah to the alligator farm and aquarium in St. Augustine.

Ahhh, they're going to get me!!!


There was hardly anyone at the aquarium that day so Noah got to feed the dolphins.


I love the beach...

Kaper & Capane Family Vacation

It was kind of like the Griswolds at Disney. LOL! We all had a great time and I really think Noah enjoyed having all of his grandparents and his aunt Jess (at that time Ca-Ca) around. We all missed aunt Sarah. Next time!

Noah and Jess watching the fireworks at Epcot. For some reason Noah was freaked out.


Eeyore!!!



and Tigger. Oh my!!


Noah and I at the Crystal Palace.


Noah loved playing the drums!!!


Everyone at Tutto Italia in Epcot. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it.




Sistas


I'm so excited!!!!


MGM...


Can't forget the Mouse!!!

Florida!!!

After Noah's birthday trip we left Pa and headed south. After a brief stop in NC to see Sarah and Scott we arrived in FL on August 5th.

For some reason I cannot seem to locate any pictures from August or September but will save this as a place marker for when I do........

Idlewilde Park

For Noah's 2nd birthday we took him to Idlewilde Park. I can't believe he loves the rides so much. Takes after his parents.




Justin got a bit of a work out on this ride. Noah wanted to ride it over and over.



This little boy was nice enough to let Noah ride with him since he was too small to go by himself and no adults were allowed.



He can barely reach the handle bars!!!

July 2009- Random Photos

These are all some random pictures of the rest of July in Connecticut. The first picture is of Noah at the water park in West Hartford and the following three are at the Children's Museum in Middletown.

Introducing LT. Noah Kaper.

July 4, 2009

Everyone waiting for the fireworks to start. Seating was a little tight that year with the construction downtown but those Indians really know how to put on a show!

A rare picture of me and Noah.

Fireworks!!!! One of my all-time favorite things.

Harkness Park and Mohegan Sun

While my parents were in town we also took Noah to Harkness Park in New London. We didn't actually think he would get in but he all of a sudden decided that he liked the water.























How's this thing work??????








My parents also enjoy going to the casino. I don't blame them. Anyone who has been to Mohegan knows it is much more than just a place to gamble.




Noah was so excited to ride the tram from the parking lot to the casino.















Noah playing at the arcade.
















Ahhh yes, the buffet. Jess's favorite.

Mystic Aquarium & Hartford Train Show- July 2009

My family came up in July for one last visit to CT. When my dad is in town we have to go to the Mystic Aquarium and lucky for him this time there was also a train show for him to attend in Hartford.

Noah either confused or stunned by the beluga whales. He recovered nicely by wrestling some seals in the gift shop later on that day.





















Noah thought touching the crabs was cool at first but quickly changed his mind!

I gotta say all the Lego lands were impressive.














Noah and Justin in the Lego Village.

Goodbye's to the cold Northeast

The spring/summer of 2009 not only marked the time when we were to PCS but also for Jon and Megan to head down to FL and for Chris, Jess and Kensie to start their new chapter (outside the Navy) in Chicago. Here are some pictures of all of us at our house prior to everyone saying goodbye to New England.






Noah and the that tongue!!! He always has it sticking out.

Lovin' on Alyssa as usual.










I believe this was Kensie's first time in a tree swing. She loved it!
