Noah Turns 5!

Birthdays are much anticipated at our house and for Noah especially!



This boy loves his birthday and the celebrations that come with it.





For WEEKS he would ask me, almost daily, "Mom is today June 19th?"



Since he concept of time doesn't go much past yesterday, today or tomorrow, it was difficult to explain when exactly June 19th would come; so I would just tell him it was far away, in hopes that he would stop obsessing and asking me everyday.

Well he would then go to his hopeful Grandma Krisers' house who would assure him that his birthday wasn't that far away and that it would be here before he knew it! The cycle of asking "when" would then start over ......... Needless to say, when June 19th finally did come, I was excited :)
We celebrated at the "Dollar Theatre" watching Aliens vs Monsters, with counsins and friends.
My Monsters; Jacob & Noah :)
(They resemble their father's side)


The celebrations continued later that evening at Peter Piper Pizza with family and friends.
Here's Ammon, not caring why, just glad to be eating pizza!


Oh the fun that comes from a handful of tokens ....
Cousins, Spencer & Jacob, just going for a drive.

Noah intensely planing Whac Mole, with great hopes to win 50 tickets to buy a .10 cent prize. :)



Time for CAKE!






...... and Presents!!!





Noah is so sweet and joyful. He showed enthusiasm for every gift; small or large. He is so easily pleased. You may notice that every picture is somewhat blurry; that is because he was so excited he never stopped moving so I just kept snapping pictures!










David was certain that 5 yrs old was the ripe old age that a boy should receive his first 22 ... ?! Uhmmm for Noah or for David? You decide ...









"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Another successful birthday I can check off my - Mom Do List - !
Oh how I love Noah's sweet and tender spirit. Happy Birthday Noah.
