Happy Birthday Noah!



We celebrated Noah's 3rd birthday this past Saturday. We were going to have it at the park, but after it started raining and got colder, we decided to move it to our house. His birthday theme this year was Dinosaurs! Micah and I took Noah to Party City to pick out what kind of birthday he wanted. Noah finally narrowed it down to Pirates, Army, Dinosaurs, Cars, Batman, Spiderman, or Monster Trucks. Micah and I decided that we would just have to pick one. Noah got a lot of great things for his birthday like a train table, a motorcycle, a helicopter, a scooter, a bubble gun, some Batman toys, some monster trucks, Spiderman sunglasses, and much, much more.

Here are some interesting things about Noah:

Noah is all boy (except when he's playing Barbies with the girls)

He's into trains, dinosaurs, guns, sports, Legos, cars, trucks, etc.

He is a very good little brother most of the time. He likes to scribble on whatever the girls have been coloring and then run away. He knows exactly what he's doing!

Noah is almost completely potty-trained. We're both working on it.

He sleeps in his bed for most of the night, but he likes to come crawl in our bed early morning and say, "I had a dream." It always reminds me of the Martin Luther King, Jr. speech.

Noah still likes to play with my hair our Micah's hair (Yes, Micah's hair is that long) when he's sleepy. Sometimes, it doesn't bother me, but there are times when it drives me crazy!

Noah has an incredible imagination. He likes to tell stories. His voice will change, his facial expression will change, and he'll get very animated. It's a lot of fun to watch.

His favorite song right now is "The Boys are Back" from High School Musical 3.

His favorite movies are "Peter Pan", "The Fox and the Hound", "Robin Hood", and "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang".

Noah's favorite TV shows are Word World and Super Why.

Noah asked us the other day if he could get his ears pierced. (this is because Micah keeps talking about getting his done)

Although Noah certainly has his red-head moments, he is a very sweet little boy. He keeps finding baby clothes and toys and ask, "Can we save this for your baby, mommy?"

I just had to tell Noah that he's putting on too much lip stick. I may have to erase the one about him being all boy! Poor thing, he's around me and his sisters all the time. He really needs a baby brother to play with!


On a different note, I have a prayer request for a friend of mine. She is just over 15 weeks pregnant and has a 3 inch tear in her amniotic sac. She's on a bedrest, but it's just wait and see for now. Please keep her in your prayers. Thank you.
