Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

I got Noah (me) a little something last week.

Noah’s first skateboard.

This skateboard has a cork top so he can sit on it, lay on it..  whatever on it and not tear up his clothes or himself (Thanks for the tip Neil).  Regular skateboards have griptape on the top which is basically sandpaper (do I really need to explain that to people?).

Should be fun.  We’ll see if he likes it any more than the soccer ball I got.  The soccer ball that is under that pile of dust somewhere.

Catching up with Nana, Grampa, and Aunt Mindy up in NH over dinner…

…a particularly messy dinner.

Noah’s starting to study for a big test.

I told him if he fails he has to clean up the mess which seemed to really stress him out…

…I’ll try to go easy on him.

Kate bought Noah a new food bib.  It’s tie-dye so it was kind of a gift for me too, and Noah is into it, trust me, just not when I took this flick.

See, 43 seconds later and not a tear to be dried.

42 minutes later… a thrown cup and some real tears.

Must be the weather.

The morning of Memorial Day we geared up and took a ride to see what’s up in Red Hook.

Noah’s first day in flip-flops.

The Statue of Liberty from a Red Hook pier.

Someday we’ll get your helmet to fit right Noah.

Heat.

Sculpture as playground.

We stopped by Fort Defiance for lunch.  Fort Defiance is “operated (and its bar is tended) by St. John Frizell” who went to Tulane with Kate (Mom).

Noah’s down for the yogurt.
