Happy Birthday Noah!!!

It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating his first birthday!

His favorite blankie.

His first trip to Disneyland and enjoying one of the rides with Daddy!

Halloween 2008

He's growing so fast!!!


It is so hard to believe my little guy is now 2-years-old! I remember the days when his feet were too small for even the tiniest socks and now he runs around smelling his stinky feet! So much has happened in a year and it has been such a fun year to watch him grow. He is as active as can be and continues to love to run around, wrestle, and play ball. He screams with excitement when football is on the TV (something Daddy taught him) and he's got quite an arm himself. He is communicating so well and using his words all the time. He is so cute when he asks for help, always saying, "Help me!" Sophie and him are really forming a wonderful bond. They squabble from time to time, like all siblings, but for the most part they love to play together and are learning the concept of sharing. Noah knows how to get what he wants, especially from his sister!

Noah continues to be a human garbage disposal, pretty much eating everything in sight. There are rare days when he runs around so much he doesn't want to eat, but most days he is shoveling it down with me left wondering where he puts it all! He continues to be a fantastic sleeper (thank goodness he gets this from his Daddy!) and napper. If he is up during the night, he always has a good reason (i.e. he's sick). Other than that, you can always count on him to take advantage of sleep time!

My love for my little guy grows every single day. He warms my heart every time I think about him and his beautiful smile. I look forward to what this next year brings and I pray it is as happy and healthy as this past year. Happy Birthday Noah! We love you!
