Happy Birthday Noah John!!!

On the eve of Noah's birthday we made a trip to the St. Louis zoo and had a great time. Our very own private viewing of the hippos (who we think were attracted to us by Hannah's screaming fit) was the highlight of the trip.

On Noah's birthday he was surrounded by his favorite friends at Chuck E. Cheese! He hid under the table when Chuck came out for the party stuff. We managed through it and still had a wonderful time! We hope everyone else did too and thanks for the great stuff.

All the cliches are true..... time passes in the blink of an eye, there is nothing more precious than a child, they grow like weeds, etc. I just can't believe my first born is 3 and before you know it the post will read: I just can't believe my first born is 5....16....18.....21.....30 - wow, it just doesn't seem right.

Noah on his first bike for his 3rd birthday. This bike was broken and exchanged for a new one. The 2nd bike had the same problem and now the poor kid has no bike. He has taken that fairly well, knowing that he gets to go to the bike shope, like dad, and get his very own!!

Trust me I know the "time flies by" feelings. Mine will be 4 in 3 weeks and I look at her and just shake my head at how much she's grown and is developing into such a little person, learning every day.
Noah is such a little ham and his smile is so adorable. Sorry we missed the birthday party fun. Ashlyn really enjoyed it and told us several times about it.
