Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

On Saturday the whole Urban clan drove out to (Noah’s Uncle) Matt’s house.  The party was a mix of nice-to-see-you, how-was-your-birthday, here-is-your-christmas-present, my-isn’t-the-weather-lovely, Happy-Mothers-Day!!  Good times.

Noah started the party right by smacking his face on the pavement.

The bruise on Noah’s face was better than the cut on Matt’s hand.  The night before he kept washing (on accident) a glass that had just shattered.

Chilling with Uncle Tim.

Admiring Matt’s odd toy collection.

Matt’s friend Pete.  Creepy.

Tim missed Christmas, so when it got cold Emmett gave him his gifts.

Insert me into this photo somewhere.

Thanks for having us out Matt!!  And thanks to everyone for the birthday cards and gifts.

“You still feeling sick Noah?”

PSYCH!!  Lets go open some more presents!!!

Out to Emmett and Lisa’s we go for Urban Family Christmas!!

Gotta make sure the tree is still perfect.

Gotta make sure we get some attention from Nana.

Gotta catch up with Uncle Matt.

Then we gotta get to these presents.

An amazing chair from Nana and Opa for Noah.

High five Opa.

Wasted, all those gifts…

Gotta steal some snacks to get the strength back up.

Time to get all these gifts together and head home.

Thanks Emmett and Lisa for hosting, and thanks to everyone for the thoughtful gifts and good times.

Everyone waiting for me to put on music…

Noah waking up from a nap.

Some post nap love from everyone.  First Nana.

Then Aunt Lisa.

Then Uncle Emmett.

Then Nathan.

Then more love from Uncle Emmett…

Then awkward bottle feeding.

Then it’s time to go home and sleep all this love off.

Thanks to Nana and Opa for going all out and cooking a perfect Thanksgiving meal.

Emmett and Lisa had the family out to celebrate Nana Urban’s Birthday this weekend.

Angus ate well with Noah “the dropper” around.

Noah’s Aunt Lisa worked hard in the kitchen, and still kept an eye on Angus when he had to go out.

Emmett and Lisa have this amazing wallpaper in their bathroom.  Every time we go out I’m worried it will be gone as they renovate their house.

Kat helping to keep Noah, and Angus fed.

Best carrot cake ever.

As we got ready to head back to Brooklyn I had to document diverse bookshelf.  Einstein biographies next to Tori Spelling autobiographies.

“That’s it Dad?”

“Yeah.”
