Hi-Yah!!!

My little Noah got his orange belt in karate this week. He was super excited and I was pretty proud of him. As an added bonus for doing so well, he also got a new patch to be sewn to his uniform for his excellent self defense skills. The biggest draw back? He now thinks that he is able to actually defend himself against anyone that comes at him. Sorry son...you're no Chuck Norris just yet. LOL. I'm glad that he's finally found something that gets him off of his rump and keeps him active. I have to admit that I sort of love hearing the big "hi-yah" noise come from him every time he kicks or strikes. It never ceases to make me chuckle a bit.  (Even if it partially kills the souls of his dad, grandpa, and uncles...my boy isn't a jock. Sorry guys. Maybe Peyton will be our little athelete. Ha.) Please note that his little sidekick had to sport his "old" yellow belt and be a "neen-ja girl."
