A Quick Visit With a Friend

Steven's Friend Julie Vangelos came over with her husband and two adorable children for a quick visit to see Noah, Kiss his Cheeks and say "Hi" to Steven and Kristin. It was good to see them and their children. Anthony showed Steven What to expect in 2-3 years. Wow Julie you did great!

Christmas!

Noah celebrated his first Christmas surrounded by the Love of his family, four generations of Schergers and Dobmeyers. Thanks to all for a generous, caring and blessed Christmas.

Great Grandma's Little Snicklefritz!

Great Grandma Dobmeyer met Little Noah for the first time. She enjoyed him a great deal, marveled at his activity, discussed and advised over his cold and his teething, and gave him a nick name....Snicklefritz! Thanks Great Grandma!! We All Love You!!!!

A Christmas Trip To Ohio

Noah had quite an adventure over the Christmas holiday as he traveled with Mom and Dad to Ohio. He did OK on the flight out and back despite having a cold and cutting his first teeth. More on teeth as they develop. When he arrived he was met with Love and affection by his Grandma and Grandpa Scherger and then later by Great Grandma, Uncle Mike and Aunt Laurie. Life was a bit different there with not the usual accommodations of home but he got cleaned up and enjoyed the holiday. Thanks to Steve's Mom and Dad as they did a Great Job of welcoming baby Noah to their home.

Early Christmas

Christmas was celebrated early with Grandma and Grandpa Harrold this past Monday. While Steven, Kristin, and Noah travel to Ohio and the Scherger clan for the holiday, the Harrolds are heading to San Diego to spend Christmas with Grandson Gus and family.

More rice cereal Please!

One for the mouth, one for the face, one for the lap...Smooch it around with the hand....Gets the job done. More please!

Nicholas

Yesterday the Gregas came over to celebrate Christmas with us. Here's a picture of Nick and Noah riding together on Steven's leg. This is Noah's latest favorite game. Despite being 5 weeks younger than Nick, he is still bigger than him, although Nick is doing a good job recently of catching up in height.

For all those curious about Noah's noisy breathing, the doctor believes it is a fairly common condition called Laryngeal Malacia. Basically all that means is that there is a softening of the structures around his Larynx. There is a collapse of the supraglottic laryngeal structures. This produces symptoms on inspiration since these floppy structures, such as the epiglottis and aryepiglottic folds, may be pulled into the airway during inspiration. As normal cartilaginous development occurs, symptoms improve. Typically they outgrow this anywhere from 6 months to a year, although for some it goes a little longer.

Rice Cereal!

Noah started rice cereal yesterday. He wore his "What is this? I'm not sure I like it" expression initially, but was soon swallowing away. This picture was obviously before the cereal, taken earlier in the day by his Grandma Harrold.

What a Whopper!!

Noah at 4 months is

26 inches long

18 and 1/2 pounds.

An Evening with Great Uncle Tom

Noah had a wonderful evening with is Great Uncle Tom and Katharine. Mom and Dad dined on a delicious paella, drank some wine and had good conversation with Tom and Katharine. Thanks Tom and Katharine for a great evening!

Cousins

On Saturday Noah got to meet 2 of his second cousins, Michi and Ken, who live with their mom and dad, Tim and Naoko Soderberg (Kristin's cousins) in Morris, MN. Michi, pictured, is 7 and Ken is almost 2 1/2.

Pajama Party!

Noah went to his first pajama party last Friday evening. While 4 of us moms from "Baby & Me" class, and "New Parent Connection Group" got together for some gabbing and treats, the "kids" hung out in their PJ's. From left to right is Levi, Ashley, Noah, and Gabriel. The other three are all about 1 month older than Noah, but he has Ashley and Gabriel beat in size!

Levi

This is Levi (on the left), a friend of Noah's from ECFE "Baby & Me" class. Although they are the 2nd and 3rd youngest, they are both the brutes of the class! Levi is newly sporting 2 bottom teeth!

UFF DA!!!! Naked babies and Lutefisk

Noah just loves to be naked! After the bath time with Mom is a great time. He enjoys his tummy time, and rolling over on the towel on the center island of the kitchen after his bath.

Noah was also a great hit at the Lutefisk dinner Kristin and I went to at Church last night. We told everyone that we were going to try him on his first (semi) solid food tonight. Lots of laughs. Actually the meal was good. (we mostly ate meatballs) but we did enjoy the dinner with all the Scandinavian trimmings. Uff Da!!!
