Noah's birthday isn't officially until the 22nd but we celebrated it this weekend with a pool party. Next weekend isn't an option because my mom is graduating with her masters in counseling after 6 long years of work. It's going to be quite the celebration next weekend. Here he is getting ready with daddy for the big day.
Jon and I made a dump truck cake. I think it ended up looking pretty cool! We had a bunch of friends meet us at the aquatic center, we ate, played with balloons and playdough and the kids (4 of them) tried to open the piñata. It took the 7-yr old a while to finally get it open. Then everyone went swimming! Noah is such a fish. He is trying to pick things off the bottom of the pool. We're working on keeping his mouth closed! We only got pictures up to the point that he blew out his candles. The batteries went dead AGAIN. That happened at his last birthday too. My parents have pictures on their camera but we don't have them yet. Lots of video though.
Yesterday we went to some friend's house (that 7 yr old that broke the piñata) and started work on a garden. They've wanted one for a while now but the deer eat everything they plant. They said that if we helped put the fence up we could share the space. It all went up much easier than expected. We're hoping to get it all ready in time to plant at the beginning of May. Noah and Emelia played and by the time we got home he was a mess. There was even dirt IN his diaper. I hope he sleeps well tonight. We're having 3 days of summer before the spring returns so he's using lots of energy by running around outside. I love it.
