Saturday was a beautiful day.  The sun was shining and the temperature was warm (for Washington).  So, we decided to take advantage of it and go to the beach.  Richmond Beach park is only about 10 minutes from our home, and it sports beautiful views of the Sound.  This was also Noah’s first visit to the beach, and definitely worth recording.

Of course, Noah wasn’t able to stay awake for very long, and soon he was fast asleep. He used to fall asleep to the sound of waves crashing, but considering that there are no waves on the Sound, he had no real excuse this time.

Hiking and dozing

On Sunday, we enjoyed our time at church, and then headed down to Graham to visit with some of Phil’s family. Although it rained the entire day, we had a lovely time with his grandma, aunt, uncle, and cousins. We always enjoy our time down there! We still need to teach Noah the response to “He is Risen!” (”He is Risen Indeed!”)  I guess we just need to be a bit more patient.

Another noteworthy fact is that Noah is now 3 months old!  He’s still growing a lot, and is now wearing 6-9 month clothes.  He grows about 2 inches every month, but I’m hoping that he will slow down soon or else he’ll be in 3T by the time he’s 9 months old.  He’s a very happy little boy, and we are enjoying every milestone.
