Noah. My little dude. You were a surprise from the moment you were conceived and have surprised us in one way or another just about every day of your tender little life. You came into the world the most serene, easy going baby. Right from the get-go, you peacefully napped in a hospital nursery full of screaming babies. You let us sleep pretty well right away, you easily fell asleep in our arms and were just an easy going little guy. And then your spice started showing up....you crawled at 8 months, walked at 10 months and were running by your first birthday. As soon as you could move, you were always after your brother or looking for something to get into. You developed this little personality that was constantly in awe of the world around you. You would point your chubby little finger and "oooooooo" at just about anything that caught your eye. You would giggle every time your brother came near or your papa walked in the door. And even as you started getting sick so often, your sweet and spicy personality still shined through.
We went through a few long, difficult months with you when we wondered and agonized over what was going on with your little body and prayed that it was nothing catastrophic. It broke our hearts to see you in such misery so often and not be able to take the pain away from you. You were such a champ dealing with all the doctors visits and needle pokes, and entertained nurses, techs and doctors everywhere we went. Once we had a diagnosis, we continued to plug along through our sleepless night and your pain. And through it all, you managed to head right into your terrible two's at the tender age of 18 months. But, we wouldn't have it any other way, my sweet boy. We love you more than you can imagine and are so excited to see what the Lord has in store for your life!
