I love the fact that Noah not only has such a loving and supporting family, but that he has been able to meet several of his extended family members.

From breast feeding or bottle feeding to using a straw to moving solid food around your mouth with your tongue, all of this helps your mouth develop the ability to talk.
[Read More…]Hi, I’m Noah’s dad, and I used to blog here. Does anyone remember? 🙂
Wow…! It’s been a while since I’ve written a blog post and I miss it!  While our Facebook page has remained very active the last few month, this blog has been sort of a digital ghost town.
For those of you wondering what happened to our regular blog posts about our son Noah let me calm your fears.

This site may be named “Noah’s Dad,” but make no mistake about it, Noah’s mom keeps our house together! I could not ask for a more loving, kind, selfless wife and mommy to our son than my wife.
