Last night, Tim and Noah were leaving a hunting class. After sitting for three hours, he had a lot of energy to release!
He ran and jumped onto the ball on the back of the truck - or rather attempted to. It was a near damaging accident to, um, an area down below.
Tim said Noah stood up, exhaled loudly, and said, "Whew! I about broke my couch!"
Nearly snorting, Tim tries to remain composed and asks what he meant.
"Well...maybe a love seat then," he says.
At this point, Tim is about to pass out from needing to laugh when Noah looks at him matter-of-factly and says, "you know, Dad, my f-u-r-n-i-t-u-r-e!"
Tim said it was all he could do to drive home, between the tears and side splitting pains of laughter!

Movie Date
Noah and I went to see Percy Jackson last night. I love taking him on little "mini dates" with me for some one one one time. He is growing so fast and I feel like these dates help me continually connect with his ever-changing self!
As usual, he was a hoot to hang with. When we walked in, he took charge of ordering our tickets, popcorn, cokes, etc. We got there early so we had first pick of the seats and settled in our own personal row.
Noah decided our popcorn needed a little more salt so he went back out into the lobby before the show began. Suddenly, he came running back in, popcorn spewing out the bucket and leaving a messy trail behind him.
"Mom, Mom! The so-and-so brothers are out there!" he shouted.
I stared blankly, not really knowing who that was or why it was exciting.
"The so-and-so brothers! You know, from wrestling!!" he stated, rolling his eyes and not impressed that I didn't know them personally.
So I asked him if he talked to them or got their autograph anything, since they were so totally cool and right in the next room.
He scoffed and said, "No...they are normal people, Mom, with lives outside of wrestling. They just want to see the movie in peace."
.....well, put me in my place! :)
Not to spoil the movie for anyone who hasn't seen it but there is a somewhat emotional scene near the end where the long lost father gets to see his son face to face and talk to him for the first time. I have goosebumps and am internally thinking, "Awwww."
Noah leans into me and says, "I would SO be asking him right now how he turns into water and not wasting time with this stuff!"
...that's my boy!
