Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

On Thursday my parents came to spend the weekend with us. We started things off by surprising Noah at day care.

Noah showed Nana and Grampa around.

The class caterpillars.

Psyched.

Noah’s school had a pajama party for Valentines Day yesterday.  We will begin our coverage with photos by Noah’s mother, Katherine.

The post-nap spread…

I covered the second half of this party which continued in the gym with stories by Ms. Gladys.

Then just a free for all climbing, jumping, and singing session.

Zion.

Lil Dude with Logan, Alex, and Audrey singing “No more monkeys jumping on the bed”… as they jumped…

After a quick stop at Opalia, Noah and I were ready to shower Kate/Mom with gifts.

Happy Valentines Day…

When I went to pick up Noah at school Wednesday he was watching “Happy Feet” on a laptop with Alex and Logan.

Noah’s day care put on a Holiday Extravaganza on Friday.  I tried to walk the line between photographer trying to capture the event, and proud dad encouraging my 2 year old to do his best.  I wasn’t alone.

Ms. Carol, the boss.

The 1 year old’s.

Little drummer boys.  These are the 2 year olds.

Noah didn’t want to wear the hat (“it’s too big”).  Not even during the weeks of practice his teacher said.

The Sugarplum Fairies.

Lil’ Dude forgot to get the bells under his chair.

Spotted.

Taking a bow.

An interlude.

Ryder!

The oldest kids did a medley.  This was part of the Kwanzaa dance.

This was a Hanukkah “rap” I think.

The kids and teachers did a really great job.  It had to be pretty overwhelming for the kids to have an audience like that.

After the show Nana and Opa had us over for dinner.

“Biggest game of the year” last night.  Pats took it, 45-3.  We celebrated by sending Noah to day care in his jersey this morning.

One more photo…  in celebration.

…and maybe one more, because I might have chased Noah around the apartment trying to get photos.  Maybe.

Go Pats!
