March 2008: In Training


Noah and I started out the spring by getting ready for Mt. Washington. It has been my goal since I got to CT to hike Mt Washington (tallest Mountain on the East Coast). I thought this would be the year, but sadly it's the end of September and it looks like I'll have to wait till next year.

March 2008: Easter Sunday




Grandma, Pappap, and Aunt Jess come up for Easter.

March 2008: Here Come Peter Cottontail


That is a rabbit treat that the lady is holding in her hand. If the Easter Bunny sits still and doesn't drop Noah, he gets a snack.

March 2008: Remember that scene in Poltergiest...


This was taken back in CT but it leads into a good story. Sarah, Scott, Noah and I went home to PA for a visit at the beginning of March. Noah tossed his cookies the first day we were there and I thought that it was due to giving him regular formula instead of the Gentle formula; however, that night I woke up with the stomach flu. The next day my mom came down with the stomach flu, then Sarah, Betty, Carly, Geoff, and finally Danny. The bug was so strong that Jen got it when Noah and I got home, three days after our symptom went away! Somehow my dad and Scott never got sick. They must have Superman strength immune systems.

March 2008: Beginning of March


March was a big month. Noah started sitting up on his own more, eating solids, and we flew back to PA to meet up with Aunt Sarah. Jen and I went to a WVU UCONN game with Jodi and Jason Geddes. We should have brought Noah along, maybe some luck would have rubbed off on WVU.

Random pictures from February. Look at those Steeler Fans! It's never too early to pass on the Black and Gold.

January 2008: Feeding Time

For the first two weeks we had to feed Noah with an over-sized syringe. Needless to say this created several problems. First, he got a lot of air while slurping down milk so that led to excess gas. Second, the plunger would start to harden up after a while and would be almost impossible to push. This led to slower eating which infuriated Noah and also caused him to suck down more air...which led to more gas...which led to an unhappy baby. It was a vicious cycle.
