Noah turned 8!

Mr. Noah turned 8 years old on February 2nd!   I've been busy and haven't gotten a chance to post until now.  He had a great day!  We spent most of it hiding the fact that it was his birthday - until Nana called and wrecked it all! LOL...    We couldn't go out and get his cake & gift until after Daddy got home and so I didn't want him waiting on pins and needles all day (not to mention asking me a million times) ... 

So he found out about it and got all sorts of excited!  Of course he did ... one of the biggest miracles of my life turned EIGHT after being told, so long ago, he wouldn't live to see his first day, or first month birthday, let alone his 1st birthday or anything else.   My little miracle is EIGHT!  Started out at 1lb 12oz and 13 3/4 inches and now he's about 40lbs and 45 inches!!  Noah himself, still isn't on the growth chart for his age.  (well he is for weight but not for height) ...  but he's growing and that is wonderful  ...

He got a cake, and a gift (bag) from Nana, Papa Russ, Daddy Dennis, Mommy & all his siblings, and we found him a Ice Age cake.

And then it was time for him to blow out all of his ...er...  candle.. LOL... (he has asthma) ...

Then it was time for gifts

 

  

 

It was explained to him before he opened his gifts in his gift bag that one of the gifts was a joint gift for him and Calahan to share.  Which was their own X-Box 360 to share.  Noah also got a new game, and a couple other games for them.  (We already have an X-Box 360 but there was some fighting going on about who got to play when - even with Daddy Dennis - lol) ...  so they have their's downstairs in their den, and the one Dennis got himself a couple Christmases ago is upstairs...   they were BOTH happy!  He had a good birthday :)
