Noah has grown up so much in the past year we've been in Kauai. He loves being outside riding his big wheel around the neighborhood, splashing in the ocean, any and all things involving airplanes, playing with dinosaurs and his train tracks, watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Special Agent Oso, eating Cheerios and Special K with Strawberries, and any and all fruit!
Weight: 38 lbs (of solid muscle!) *94th percentile for age*
Height: 38 3/4 inches *72nd percentile for age*
We decided to have a pretty low key birthday party this year since we didn't know if Baby Brother would make his appearance early, so we invited Noah's friends from the neighborhood for cookie cake and ice cream at the playground :)
Noah also likes to watch the Disney show "Jake & the Neverland Pirates" so we decided to have a pirate themed party!
The kids had fun decorating eye patches
Some of Noah's friends:
Noah, Katy, Ella Kate, Abby & Jack
A couple of the dads "supervising"
I also made chocolate mustaches for all of the kids :-)

Papa & Grandma Anita flew to Kauai on Noah's birthday to help him celebrate! (And to hang out with Noah while Mommy & Daddy are at the hospital with Baby Brother)
We went to Duke's for Noah's birthday dinner of chicken fingers and French fries :)
Yay for free Hula Pie on his birthday!
One of Noah's favorite gifts: a John Deere tractor!!!
You have such a silly and goofy personality, little buddy! You are constant go, go, go and never seem to stop. Everyone is very impressed with how much energy you have (and they also have a lot of sympathy for Mommy & Daddy since you really never do stop moving ;-) But we love how active you are and how sweet and loving you can be. You have a great memory and love to sing and read books. It also takes several minutes to read a book to you because you love to ask millions of questions about what is happening on each page. You have an amazing vocabulary, and strangers have assumed for almost this entire past year that you are much older than you really are. You are so excited about becoming a big brother and have been asking for the last couple months if Baby Brother was big enough to come out and play with you :-) We are so proud of the little man you are becoming, and we can't wait to see what the future has in store for you!!!
