The Birthday Post


It's been a month or so, and we have all turned one year older. Noah had the first of the birthdays, turning the big 5 on 1/11/11!


We had some of his good buddies over to celebrate!



We had some free Lego building time, since that is something Noah is really in to right now.

We played musical chairs...


and Pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey!

Michael turned 31 the next day. We went out for a dinner date, just the two of us! My birthday was two weeks later. I turned 30. I was sick that day, so we stayed in, made a fire, and I went to bed early. What a celebration?! Hopefully, I'll get a chance to celebrate with Annmarie in a couple weeks and make a getaway for a night or two with her. I'm glad I have a best friend to turn 30 with.
Just ten days after my birthday, Ethan turned two! We were blessed to have both sets of grandparents come into town to celebrate!




We had "Make your own pizza" for dinner - a favorite for Ethan.


He's really into tractors and equates them with his "Pa Pa" (my dad). He is a big talker now and the day after his party he woke me at 6am and said, "Hi Mommy! My happy. My cake. My Pa Pa. My toy." I think the party made an impression on him. So sweet to watch my baby grow into a little boy.
