Noah's Birthday Party Update

Last Saturday, we had a birthday party at Noah's Aunt Karen and Uncle B's house to celebrate Noah Wesley turning two. It was a fun time!! Noah, Emma, Drew, and Landon started off by running around the backyard while we finished getting the food ready. They were very interested in the awesome pool Aunt Karen found on one of her shopping trips a few days before. All of the boys got wet before getting into their swimmers and trunks!!! (leave it to the boys...) Before getting into the pool (after eating a wonderfully yummy dinner of hamburgers, hot dogs, scalloped potatoes, baked beans, macaroni salad, fruit, cole slaw, and more), Noah and Landon said their "goodbyes" and then Emma and Noah started playing in the pool. Drew was a little scared, but he got in for a while a had a great time!! After drying off and warming up, everyone dove into the yummy cupcakes (courtesy of Sybil!), and then Noah opened his gifts. He got many outfits for fall, a couple of books (one featuring Elmo), a Cars poster with his name on it, a Nemo decoration with little plastic characters in the cubby-holes, a puzzle, a Jeep with sand tools to take to the beach, a t-ball set, and a potty. Oh, and he got some money, too!! :) It was a great time!!!

Here are a few shots from the party...

My baby boy is 2!!!

Can you believe it? Two years have already gone by!! It's like they say...time does fly by when you have little ones. Before you know it, he'll be off to college!! :P Today I was able to work from home, so I got to spend the entire day with Noah Wesley. He watched several of his favorite "vi-vi's" (movies)...Cars, Jonah (the VeggieTales movie), Aladdin, and then Cars again before bed. :P Since it was his birthday, I let him watch what he wanted. hehehe

He got to watch the trash truck come this morning also...he oooo-ed and whoa-ed about that!!

At lunchtime, we went to Burger King, and Noah and I had lunch together. He had a lot of fun as he smiled and said hi to the other hungry customers coming in. I seriously think he will one day be a PR person, in some manner. He is very friendly! :)

After his 2 1/2 - 3 hour nap after lunch, he ate some dinner, and together we created his hand mold in a frame! It was a wonderful day, and I'm so thankful for my cute & handsome little 2-year-old!! :D

Here are some pictures that I took of our day...watching the trash truck...looking at movies...giggling...spending time with Mommy...oh, and who made this mess in Noah's room??!! ;)
