Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

Noah is 2.  Things are starting early for this kid.  I don’t think I had my first school photo until I was 6.  Kids these days.

Photographers are always looking for something that really “makes” the photo.  Something a little off, maybe a happy accident.  Some dog poop, or gum on the bottom of a shoe.  Either way, the foot of fresh snow out the fake window makes it for me.

Amazing.  Teachers left to right are Ms. Alva, Ms. Ella, Ms. Michelle, and Ms. Jackie (whose name got left off!).

This one would cost extra.

All aces.  You can see more at http://photogifts.lifetouch.com.  Noah’s portrait id is ZP3R-FRZT, and his access coad is – KRVX.  (Why can’t they just make an easy link for me to add?)

A week ago when I walked to pick up Noah, the sun was setting and sometimes there were rainbows, now when I walk to Noah’s day care it’s completely dark.  I would be bummed, but I know it means snow is coming.  Snow…  dreamy.

Walking by the trains for the Long Island Railroad.

Earlier in the day we got the call, Savannah’s mom Aransas was going into labor.  Plans were in place and our job, to pick up Savannah (so what if this picture is out of focus, I had Noah on my back while trying to push Savannah.  I can’t do everything).

We got to see Sara too!

The next part of our job was to drop Savannah off with Dawn, Scott, and their son Chester.  After that, all we could do was wait for news.

Savannah’s sister Derby was born at 9 pm.  She weighed 6 lbs. 15 oz. and was 19 inches long.  (photo by proud father Andy)

Noah and his Auntie Mindy caught up the other night via the interwebs.

Noah went and got his computer.

“Noah, on a scale of 1 to 10 how excited are you that you will see Auntie Mindy for Thanksgiving?”

“10! (or is that “0”…  probably “10”)”

Mindy not laughing at my jokes…

After spending the night in PVD we had to pack it up and get back to NYC so Kate could get her background checked for her new job.

Prancer…

Fast forward 4 hours and multiple trips to unload the car.

Noah snuck up the stairs empty handed.

Fast forward 6 hours and one passed background check and we were opening another present from Aunt Mindy that came in the mail.

Great book.  Thanks Min!

Lunch with my Dad before we leave NH.

Kate ordered a taco salad that was bigger than her head.

Leaving is lame.

We stopped by Wild Things to get Noah a new winter coat, he never made it more then 3 ft into the store, distracted by crayons.

Last stop of the day, PVD!

Julian’s binoculars.

The Deaner’s spoiled Noah with even more birthday presents.

School bus!

Crow puppet!  (bad flick, this looks a lot less creepy in person..)

Thanks Deaner’s!
