happy birthday noah j

Happy birthday to my best boy Noah Jackson!  I love you more and more each passing day.  You have such a sweet, servants heart and I love that about you buddy.  As I'm watching you grow and turn into such a gentleman I am reminded of God's love for us.  Thank you for being my son.  I look forward to spending each day with you and for the privilege it is to be your mommy.

I was really sad to be at work this morning but I hope you liked your birthday balloons, present, and breakfast.  Daddy took pictures and video for me and it looks like you had a great morning.
Big sister gave him a new snake! Who is this big boy????

This video MADE my day. I think it started with Noah posing for what he thought was a picture, but then the kids conversation that followed is priceless. They talk like they are such big kids, no big deal. Love it.

Mommy is home from work and it's time to party! As requested, lunch with your buddy Ethan at Red Robin.
The kids always talk about how much they want to be sung to at Red Robin. Then, when their time comes this is the look in their face...
When the sundaes arrived Ethan's face lit up! He told Brian, "we don't have ice-cream like this at home!" Too funny (and sorry Donna)!

After lunch the kids and I went to the Family Fun Center for some...fun. I was a little nervous having all three by myself, and the only reason I'm saying that is because they were AMAZING! We had the best time with the games, indoor play area, turning in our tickets, and picking our prizes. By the time we were done there were enough tickets for each kid to pick out a couple of prizes from the counter. Honestly, it was the best and I couldn't ask for better kiddos. Thankfully we pretty much had the place to ourselves too.
It came time for Noah to "open" his gift from mommy and daddy. Can't be that easy though, he had to find it first! New bike for my big boy. Maybe now he'll stop asking me to "just take look" every time we pass the Goodwill. Poor kid, his old bike was too small for him. Following presents and dinner came birthday cake. I think you had a pretty awesome day my buddy, love you and happy birthday!
