With Asses Roundly Kicked
May 14, 2008
Noah just officially passed the standardized articulation test at "age-appropriate levels." He has no detectable delay or difficulty that would "inhibit his ability to learn and function in a mainstream school environment." He is "one smart little guy there, like for real, wow."
Yay Noah, not to mention how ass kickingly cute he is!
looks like he also is "certified big brother material."
Wonderful!
Now he can sweet-talk the ladies at school AND charm them with his fabluous hair.
Wonderful!

Hurrah! Congratulations to all three of you--a major hurdle jumped.
Congratulations! We always knew that little guy was perfect!
Good job Noah!
I have to imagine that hearing those things feels amazing. Good work, all of you!
Yippee for Noah! He's gonna be the best big brother, like, ever.
Also, I know this couldn't sound more stalker-ish but I totally had a dream about you and Noah last night. Only it was like a high school play and the two of you were played by teenage boys. But it was you.
They say women have weird dreams when they are pregnant. Maybe that's why throughout the whole dream, I was just looking for a place I could sleep.
Anyway-Yay Noah!
That is AWESOME! You already knew that you were doing the right thing by getting him all the help, but now you KNOW you did the right thing.
Noah is the man!
you all must be so proud! I am and I don't even know you! Kick-ass Noah.
Yay!! Congratulations!!
He's so stinkin' cute!!
YAAAYYYY!!! Congratulations and woohoo and many "anacks" for Noah!
And Amy and Jason win this year's "Rockin' Awesome Parents Award."
:D Wonderful news!
That on top of being adorable?! The kid is unstoppable!
Yay! So happy for you both.
Congratulations on all the ass kicking! Way to go, Noah!
Of course he's smart! His biggest challenge was just figuring out how to communicate with all the stupid adults.
Congratulations Noah!!! Way to go little man!!!
Amy, I started reading right around the time that Noah started early intervention, and I just want to say congrats to him, and to you guys for getting him the help he needed!
GO NOAH! That rocks. I knew he would be all good!!
That is so amazing-full steam ahead for little Noah. There's no stopping him now!
Way to go, Noah!
That is the best news I've heard all day!
So I know that "roundedly" modifies kicked, but I keep feeling that it modifies "asses." Which is Teh Awesome.
Yeah for Noah!
Good Job to the both of you!
That's one good looking genius you have on your hands!
Whoo hoo! Way to go, Noah! :)
cool
sweet
Is it too soon for the "we told you so's!"?
:-)
Awesome! Yay Noah! Congratulations to you all.
Yay, Little Owen Wilson Impersonator Dude!
And yay, Mom, for going with your gut and getting him the help he needed.
Go Noah! That is great news.
Great news!
Amy! That's fabulous!! Congrats Noah!! ::does the happy dance:: Oh, and as a side note, I LOVE this picture!
Yay Noah. Good job!
And good job to mom and dad, too!
Go Noah go!
Congratulations! You must be feeling SO GOOD about the decision you made to get him some extra help as early as possible. I'm so happy for you that everything worked out.
Noah is a rock star!
Yay Noah!
And yay Amy for following your gut. End results = totally worth the sucky parts!
Booyah! You should be proud you helped him like you did.
Congratulations, Noah!
YEAH NOAH!!!!
YEAH AMY!!!!
YEAH NEW BABY SISTER!!!!
(I'm starting rumors here...)
Seriously- congrats to you both and someday you'll look back on this and start the story with "You'll never believe this but...".
That's my boy. Well, no. Not really. I mean, not like I had him or something. You know. Uh, yeah.
Go Noah. Go mom & dad!
Rock on, Noah!
hate to say "I told ya so", but....you did the right thing. Congrats, Noah!!! I never doubted you for a minute!
YAY NOAH!!! We knew you had it in you!
That is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's also one cute little guy! Wow!
I would hate to meet Noah in a dark alley. :-)
I don't know the backstory- but congrats!
My four year old son got speech therapy (I'm in Montgomery County MD) a couple of years ago through the county - AND it was a wonderful experience!
He is a fantastic talker now and at the end of a year of speech therapy - his teacher who would come to our house said (joyously, because he was talking so much and so well)
"Some kids, especially boys, just don't do a lot of talking until they have something to say."
This is so not news to those of us who love you (umm...in a non-stalkerish, friend-type sort of way...).
We all knew Noah was perfect.
All right! We all knew that anyway, but now you have the certicate to prove it!
WTG, Noah! We always knew you could.
you followed your instincts...you rock...and now Noah will be teaching baby (fueling Johanna's rumor)sister, all about da increbulls and treble clef and THOMAS,THOMAS and, and just everything!
Way to go, Noah!
Congratulations to all of you. This is the result that you all earned together. With your hard work and love. Right on.
Awesome!
AWESOME!
I knew he would be fine! Boys. They take their time sometimes :)
Yay Noah!
Yay, Noah! Yay, Amy! Your mad parenting skillz paid off. I'm taking notes. :)
Awwww! Of course he is...but it's nice to get the official word, too. I bet he just shines when he gets into school!
YAY! That is so wonderful! Great nice. Awesome pic too!
Awesome! Add my congratulations to the growing list. I am so glad. Way to go, Noah!
Congratulations! This is a wonderful success story! He's a very lucky genius to have such clever, caring parents.
YAY! Congratulations to Noah and to you for sticking to it. Plus he's handsome to boot - now he's got it all :-)
Way to go Noah, Congratulations!!
Hooray for Noah! Congratulations, now you can relax
Love this pic and the news!
But of course! Naturally.
How very cool. I so wish my son were making progress. Noah kicks heavy butt...... congrats Mommy for keeping it going strong.
Hi there! I am a long time reader but have never posted before and I just wanted to say congratulations to all three of you on Noah's big accomplishment. Hurray!
congratulations
yay for Noah's ass-kicking. :)
Yeah, we all knew that already, but it's nice to hear it from someone official!
He always was "one little smart guy" Just now he can tell the world about it instead of just showing nonverbally. :)
Amalah, that is so wonderful! I am SO happy for you and Noah. The first post I read when I found your blog years ago was Noah's birth story (and of course I then stalked all your archives)! I am overjoyed at this great news! Congrats on all your hard work paying off!
WAY TO GO, NOAH!
That's awesome news.
HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joining you in jubilation.
Whoohoo! Great job being his advocate - you helped him get there!!
Yay! And he's such a good looking little boy, too. He'll break hearts some day.
WOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! YAY FOR DA AMALAHAS!!!
Woo Hoo! Way to go, Noah! And way to go, Mommy!

That is one beautiful boy you've got there. Yay for Noah. :)
He's awfully cute too...
Good looks and brains. What a guy!
WONDERFUL NEWS! Congratulations!
PS. He is the cutest thing on earth.
the other day. i nearly launched into a story about Noah I'd read from your blog--something random had reminded me of him--but then I had to stop and remind myself that this was someone from a blog I read and not a real person I know.
Weird.
Anyway, good for you. I'm rooting for you and yours.
That is fabulous news!
Congratulations. I always knew you had a little genius on your hands. You've done a great job.
So beautiful.
We always knew he was perfect, he just needed to do stuff on his own time.
Yay, congrats! AWESOME!!!
Yahoo! What AmyM said
That's FANTASTIC! Congratulations! :)
Congratulations Noah!!!
By the way, I just found out my bf's sister is pregnant for the first time...will so be directing her to your pregnancy site! :)
You are such a good Mama! Look at how Noah has thrived with a little extra help! You must be so proud! How lucky he is!
Yeah, Noah!
Perfection, in toddler form.
