Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

After visiting the Museum of Natural History, we kicked back with some pumpkin cupcakes(!) and a little Nascar.

Noah got his balloon stuck.

Mom the rescuer.

Later, Nana and Opa came over for dinner and Noah got his first taste of the “kid’s table”.

The other weekend we met up with the Urban clan for another day of opening presents!!

Uncle Emmett bragging to Noah about all the holiday cards they get.

Noah gave Nana T. and Opa an ornament that he made for them at school.

Uncle Tim and Uncle Matt talking to their Aunt Annette who was visiting from Florida.

Opa gave Noah some lunch.

Then it was time for presents!

Uncle Matt gave Noah a bunch of great Hot Wheels tracks and cars.

A bulldozer from Nana and Opa!

Trains and tracks!

Noah (and Kate) had ornaments for everyone.

I can’t remember what sound Noah was hiding from, maybe a blender… or a vacuum…

Playing cars with Uncle Emmett before we trekked back to the city.

Thanks to Emmett and Lisa for hosting, and thanks to everyone for all the great presents!

Never psyched to leave my parents house, but we had to head back to NYC.

Tough goodbyes.

Not my best flick, but this was a scene I saw almost every day for 18 years.

To make it worse, NYC was a mess.

After a long day of opening present Noah got a bath from his Nana.

Wii’ing before bed.

After we all got to play with our new toys, and after Noah took a nap, we got ourselves together and took a trip up to see (my) Uncle Wayne and Aunt Patty.

We all piled into Grampa’s truck.

Auntie Mindy heckled Noah.

Nana was so excited about how she dressed Noah.

Noah was so excited about the train set Uncle Wayne and Aunt Patty got him.

A hug for Uncle Wayne.

A hug for Aunt Patty.

Some lunch.

(My) Nana Holt opening her presents.

Thanks for having us up Uncle Wayne and Aunt Patty, and thanks to everyone for all the great gifts.
