Noah's 3rd Birthday - Part 2



I got to have another birthday party at home this past Saturday with all my friends - I requested a Lightning McQueen theme this time!
 
  
 We played "Pin the Lightning McQueen race car on the race track" to win the Piston Cup!
 
Here I am with some of my friends - whoever Mommy could talk into piling on the couch!
 
  
  
  
I had lots of help opening presents :-)
 
  
  
Total headcount: 22 kids and 18 adults.  WHEW!!!!!
  
One of my favorite gifts: Chick Hicks and his trailer truck.
  
Our best buds :-)
Check out this awesome stamp set from Uncle Ray!

Thanks for coming to celebrate with me Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Ray!

Noah's 3rd Birthday - Part 1

I made my annual trip to the UP for my birthday last week and this year I had a little brother to celebrate with me too!
 
Grandma MJ made me a Thomas the Train cake and it was awesome!!!!!  Very tasty too :-)
 
  
 
I opened some great presents like these big construction vehicles from Grandpa Bob and Grandma Chris.
 
Of course I put them to work right away!
 
Grandpa Bob and I filled our week with "man stuff"...
 
 
Check out this tower that Grandma MJ and I built!
 
TIMBER!!!!!!
Koen and I both enjoyed the Thomas book that she gave me too!
 
Koen and Grandpa Bob really bonded on this trip - I think they speak the same language.
 
Koen enjoyed lap-time with Grandma Chris.
But he still gives out the big smiles for Mommy!
 
All that partying really wore him out though - he'd better rest up for my next party in Chicago!

January Wrap-up

We enjoyed a very relaxing month with lots of family time!
 
What?

Hmph, I'd rather be left alone with my rings thank you!

I love jamming to tunes on Daddy's new iphone!

Chipmunk cheeks (i.e. cherry tomatoes)




We ran into my buddy Cayden at the Museum of Science and Industry on MLK day.
