Look! The child does in fact have eyeballs!
(Yes, this post is going to be nothing but scrumptious baby photos. And I will not apologize, because THE SCRUMPTIOUS BABY, HE MUST BE PHOTOGRAPHED.)
Smiles! For Daddy, of course. Grr.
(Do you see that receding hairline? Everyday he wakes up with less and less actual hair and more downy blond peach fuzz. Yet he still has a full head of hair from his ears on back, which makes it hard to overlook the passing resemblance to Clint Howard.)
(Also, he is SUCH a mini-Jason it is not even funny.)
"You know, if I have to look like a big, lopsided beached whale for months on end, I better get a baby who looks like me, the one WHO DID ALL THE DAMN WORK."
Noah ponders his sneaking suspicion that his mom sometimes goes a little nuts with dressing him to coordinate with his surroundings.
"Go on, Mom. Tell the Internet what in sam hill I'm doing in the bathroom and improperly restrained on the bouncy seat. Tell them how you let me sleep here for hours last night with the water running at full blast because I would not tolerate being in any room that did not have a faucet."
"Also, get a pedicure."
He has officially suckered in the entire household.
HA! I'm finally first!!! And that last pic is about hte cutest thing EVER.
That is almost too much cuteness to bear! Honestly, he is a very handsome young man. LOVE the last pic! :)
Ummm how upset would you all be if I kept him forever due to how freaking adorable he is???
I'm assuming sad...damn.
That last picture is too great! He is such a beauty! I hope the whole family is doing well.
And, I hear ya about the babies not looking likr the mommy thing. It is the cross we must bear, as all men are a little bit concerned that it's not actually their child, regardless of everything!
*falls over and dies from the sheer cuteness of it all*
I so want to tell you he looks like you but you know I'd be lying . . . he's proof of your fidelity to the foodie-man . . but hey! he's a blonde version of Jason! So he did inherit your lovely locks . . .
Awww. . .I love when they first start smiling! Gosh, as if I needed baby fever any more! He truly is scrumptious & I totally understand the need to take mega pictures.
~Carrie~
He really IS a mini jason (for now -- I'm sure he'll be Amalah-fied as he gets older.) He is just precious - feel free to bring on as many baby pics as you want!
Now do we still call you Amalah ...or is it Mama-lah now? ;)
He is so cute!! I have a seven month old and I remember the days of using the water to get them to sleep. We liked to call it her bathroom nap!!! It is amazing what a faucet will do. We still use it in the morning sometime to put her back to sleep (her room is right by the bathroom). Love the pictures!
Oh.
My.
God.
The whole office just swiveled their heads my way when I exhaled, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."
Yeah, all babies are cute, yada ya. This baby is just pinchable, snuggly cuteness.
That last photo? I might just have to copy it to my computer so I can look at it in the future when I need a smile.
Is that weird?
(And as to resemblance, check back a couple entries ago to that profile pic, where you can see both his and your profile. I *can't* be the only one who thinks that's a carbon copy.)
I think that baby looks ALOT like YOU, Amalah! LOVE the pics. Keep on posting them. PLEASE!
Oh God and Baby Jesus, he is the most adorable little thing! I love that first picture, hes so alert! And the last picture, I could just stare at that sweetness forever!
Oh.My.Gosh. He has got to be the cutest baby I have EVER see.... That first picture!? made me weepy... I hope my son looks so adorable!!!
Everyone all together now:
AAAAWWWWWWWWW!!!
He is so handsome. I see a big resemblance to you, especially when compared to your childhood pic here on the front page.
Love the coordination of the bouncy seat & the outfit. Excellent.
Anyone other than me think he looks like "Mini-Me" on the Coordinating with Surroundings pic?
He is soooooo cute!
Oh. My. God - that kid is too freaking cute. you should give him to me so you aren't totally blinded by his cuteness...but I have a feeling you're willing to go blind :o)
he's amazingly precious. Congrats!!!
I totally understand the not-so-happiness of the little man not looking like Mama. I suffer from this as well, after all that suffering...you'd think the kid could at least resemble Mom in some manner. But no such luck *sigh*.
And, of course, awesome pics of a super cute kiddo. Great job!
He may be a mini-Jason, but he still definitely has your nose!
He does look a lot like Jason, but when I saw that first picture I was struck by his resemblance to you. So don't worry.
Agh... my eyes! My poor ovaries! So fucking cute i cannot STAAAND it! Oh, and? You take great pictures!
He so--------- looks like Jason.
Sweet lookin little thang, yep, he sure is.
Babies that look just like Dad when Mom did all the work = Dooce Effect.
Seriously, Noah is uber-cute, and that last pic? Required insulin.
oh GAWD that was cute. he's got quite a bit of little expressions already, hasn't he?
that one of him and ceiba made my heart twitter. ;)
Oh God, my uterus hurts! Just when I thought maybe I din't want to have a baby.
Well, thanks for ruining that idea, Amalah!
I love the Noah/Ceiba one at the end. My pets probably try to kill any baby of mine!
that last picture -slayed- me.
I am dead. Dead from Cuteness.
Ceiba knows where Noah keeps all the food he's storing for the winter. That is the cutest picture ever.
In the first couple of pics, he looks like a mini-Jason, but in the last few he looks EXACTLY like you... tell me I'm not the only one that sees it?
little boys often are mini-mes of their dads. adorable!
Who needs leftover Halloween candy with all of this sweetness?! (am thrilled to have both, to be honest)
Too adorable!
Seriously your baby is the cutest baby ever! Makes me want to have one of my own and THAT is no easy feat!
Noah and Ceiba together. Adorable!
He is darling! I love that last picture.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph...
He's just...SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! unbearably scrum-diddly-dumptious.
And that last picture? I actually had to squeeze my eyes shut tight to re-adjust my eyes from the sight of it.
Seriously. Could your life be any more enviable?!
Damn, sister. Between your too-good-to-be-true husband, the Washingtonian full-page, all-Amalah-all-the-time article, the beautiful Babalah boy, Max & Ceiba ("saaaaaay-buh!") and the blog that can't be beat...? A girl could seriously learn to hate you. But...alas, we all know that we loves us some Amy. Keep it ALL comin', girlfriend!
In the long run, it's better to have a daughter that looks like you, than a son that looks like you. In 15 years time, you don't want to be yelling from the kitchen "NOAH! Get your butt down to the kitchen for breakfast NOW! And I want my lipgloss* back right NOW! I know the colour suits you, but it's MINE!"
* Yes, in 15 years, gloss will be on its second comeback.
Oh. So cute. Unbearably cute. Makes me want another...almost!
If it's any consolation, Jamie was a total daddy-mini me, but now at 12 months, there are people that swear he is in fact my son. Besides the whole carrying him part, of course.
He is so adorable! At least you have a boy that "looks just like your husband." Me? I have a daughter that EVERYONE (no really, everyone!) has to tell me looks "JUST LIKE my husband!" He's Italian though so she got killer, big, brown eyes, perfect lips, nicely shaped eyebrows, and some beautiful curly hair (and a lot of it). So, I can't really complain! I LOVE Noah's peach fuzz. Oh, and your feet look fabulous!
The toes, why do I count them? I know there are 10, yet I can't help it. Love the toes.
aww! puppy love.
speaking of, how's her paw??
You know, I was doing just fine until that last picture...when I saw that, my uterus double-high-fived my ovaries and yelled in a booming voice, "Get thyself a baby!"
So cute - keep 'em comin'
I think his eyes and nose look like yours. Love Ceiba. We had a Boston Terrier that used to shake whenever Mallory cried. She would cuddle up next to her when she took a nap. Yes she used to lick her too. Call health and welfare.
After lapping up all that cuteness, my left ovary burst in a fiery display.
He's Beautiful with a capital B.
How to describe the cuteness?? Words just don't suffice. I'm giving my dentist your phone number. He is A STUNNAH.
sigh...
maybe I'll go through with the whole labor and delivery thing after all.
Such a lovely boy. sighhhhh.....

I love that last picture most of all! He is so adorable - I'm continually so happy for you and Jason.
I'll agree I see the resemblence to Jason...HOWEVER, in that first pic? He looks JUST like YOU!
He's adorable any which way you look at it!
He is so adorable!! He does look like his dad, but that doesn't mean he'll grow out of it after he gets a little older and look more like you. My son is a good mix between my husband and I...although if I had to say, I think he looks more like me than him!! I understand about the hair thing too...stinks sometimes, but he'll grow some real hair other than peach fuzz some day soon :)
LOVIN that pic of Ceiba with Noah. I have to admit, the graviational pull around that baby must be awesome. I'm irresistably drawn to the pictures, and that's just over the comptuer! Adorable. :)
I am so surprised you said that about looking just like Jason, because when he is looking over daddy's shoulder all I could thank was, oh my goodness, he is a mini-Amy. Funny, no?
Ceiba with him is the sweetest thing ever. I about died with the smiles. So cute, I am worried for my ability to not want to get pregnant right now. Resolve fading...
Our son loved the sound of running water too - try a water fountain (like one you could get cheap at Kohl's!
