Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

Old man Julian Fritz Deaner has now crawled the earth for a whole year.  Craziness.  On Saturday his parents, Joshua and Amanda, threw a shin-dig in the backyard of their new(ish) house in Providence.

Fancy friends with fancy shoes.

The pinata…

…which was filled with chocolate bars that quickly melted.

On Sunday morning we had some breakfast, saw Betsy, Patrick, and Layla off, and then took a drive to Bristol, RI to have some lunch.

My lunch looking good.

Noah looking mad.

Noah let the entire restaurant know that he was jealous of my incredibly fresh lobster roll, so after rushing through it I took Noah for a walk to see some boats.

My wild blackberry chip, and banana peanut butter cup cone.  Ridiculous.

Monday morning we were all up early again, Julian had a check-up and we had to get on the road to see Kim who lives near New Haven.

Noah was slobbering all over himself with excitement for this piano.

We said our good-byes and got on the road.  Noah quickly fell asleep and woke up just in time to play with Kim’s daughter Julia and her friend Cooper.

Kim is getting Lasik Surgery next week, lucky.  Kim did not get barfed on here, also lucky.  Noah had just finished lunch.

A quick diaper change in the passenger seat of the car and back to Brooklyn.

Vacations are never long enough.

Noah weighed in at 17 lbs. 5 oz. yesterday and he’s 27.8 inches tall.  The doc said he is eating well and looking great.

Our downstairs neighbors, and long time friends, Ryan and Ellen got married yesterday on Governors Island.  It was a perfect day.
