My BIG 2 Boy!

Noah turned two!  It breaks my heart that he is so big and grown up and talks so much, but I love it all at the same time.  Nana and Granddad were here for his birthday which made the day all the better.  We celebrated a day early because of the older kids crazy schedules, but Noah didn't care and he absolutely LOVED that it was his day.  He would pat his chest and say, "Nono birday'  He was in heaven.  He even specifically asked for a 'Chocolate Icee Cake' and a 'party' which is what he calls balloons.  It was the best.  He also would start to sing, 'Happy birday to you, Nono!'  How can I not be in love with this kid! 

He loved his Guitar.  We had a Ukelele that he loved until it broke, so I decided this would be the perect gift and he thinks it is great.  He always plays it Lefty which we find funny.

For a few weeks before he was asking for a football Helmup so he could be like Ty, but he refused to put it on, so Josh did instead.



As you can tell he loved the cake!

I think my favorite part of the whole celebration was singing him Happy Birthday!  He thought it was awesome and loved blowing out the candles.  When we finished singing he shouted, "One more time!"  It was hilarious and we couldn't deny such a cute request! 

Since this is his birthday post I have to write down all that he is up to and saying lately!  I want to remember it all - so here it goes.

This kid steals your heart in an instant.  He has tons of personality and is definitely ALL boy.  He loves sports and is always talking about Tyler at football 'tactice' or mommy exiscising (exercising).  He also loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and he adores Tyler.  He loves to play with Josh and Josh likes to get him to do all his dirty work.  He knows that Brooklynn will help him with anything he needs and often goes to her instead of me.  He is sweet and gives me Happy Kisses and Blow kisses (zerberts), he is sweet and snuggly, but oh so busy too!  He adores Granddad and the two of them had a great time together while they were visiting.  He is so sweet and very polite, if someone sneezes he instantly says, 'Bless you (insert name here)'.  He also says please and Thankyou and I even heard him ask one of his friends to excuse him when he was trying to get past!  I think by far my favorite thing about Noah is that he talks about himself in the THIRD person.  Not only does he do that, but he also pats his chest when he says his own name.  If you ask him his name he will tell you, "Nono Empey".  He keeps us all smiling and laughing and brings such joy into our home that life without his sweet little self would not be the same.  How BLESSED we are to have him! 

Happy Birthday my BIG 2 boy - you are the best!
