The Yellow Monster

Noah has been kind of obsessed with monsters lately. I think it started with all the Fireworks Booths and their inflatable Godzillas. It seems like we've been talking about monsters nonstop. Anyway, today Geary grilled hotdogs for lunch and Noah kept asking for a yellow monster. He refused to touch his hotdog until it had a yellow monster. We were all pretty frustrated and Noah was nearly to the point of tears before I finally got it. Yes, all hotdogs taste better with some yellow monster...

Noah's First Razzing

When we picked Noah's name we knew the day would come when someone would tease him about his ark. It happened earlier than we thought, but Noah handled it brilliantly. We were at the park when two kids started playing with Noah on the playground.

Girl: Spin it fast like this, little buddy!
Boy: His name isn't "little buddy" it's Boy Something
Noah: I'm Noah.
Girl: His name is Noah! Okay, Noah's turn!
Boy: Well, if you're Noah where's your ark and how come you aren't 627 years old?
Noah: I'm Noah Linhart.

Quote of the Day

Jeana: See ya later, alligator!
Noah: After awhile, crocodile!
Jeana: See ya soon, big baboon!
Noah: Um...bye... horse!
