We present 13 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) observed in the restframenear-infrared (NIR) from 0.02 < z < 0.09 with the WIYN High-resolution InfraredCamera (WHIRC) on the WIYN 3.5-m telescope. With only 1-3 points per lightcurve and a prior on the time of maximum from the spectrum used to type theobject we measure an H-band dispersion of spectroscopically normal SNe Ia of0.164 mag. These observations continue to demonstrate the improved standardbrightness of SNe Ia in H-band even with limited data. Our sample includes twoSNe Ia at z ~ 0.09, which represent the most distant restframe NIR H-bandobservations published to date.  This modest sample of 13 NIR SNe Ia represent the pilot sample for"SweetSpot" - a three-year NOAO Survey program that will observe 144 SNe Ia inthe smooth Hubble flow. By the end of the survey we will have measured therelative distance to a redshift of z ~ 0.05 to 1%. Nearby Type Ia supernova (SNIa) observations such as these will test the standard nature of SNe Ia in therestframe NIR, allow insight into the nature of dust, and provide a criticalanchor for future cosmological SN Ia surveys at higher redshift.
