Noah's First Birthday Party

Noah's Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles and Cousin came over to help celebrate his first birthday today. We missed Derek and Kaila but understand that it is a far drive and we look forward to seeing them in a few weeks!. We had lots of fun opening gifts, eating great food and of course watching Noah try his first piece of cake! He didn't make nearly the same mess as Owen did, but he enjoyed his first taste of sweets for sure. He picked the icing off of his cupcake savoring every bit of it!

Happy Birthday Noah!

Papa and Jeff picked up the balloons we ordered the other night for Noah's party.

Mommy and Daddy bought Noah a Xylophone/piano, he really likes it!

Checking the bags for more gifts :)

Kian and Owen helped Noah open his gifts. Noah and Kian were more interested in the wrapping paper and ribbons, Owen was in search of toys.

We ordered pizza and pasta for lunch. Noah loved the pasta!

Yesterday I spent the morning decorating Noah's birthday cupcakes. I realized then that it was the first time in over a year that I had the house to myself without the kids. Crazy. Here are the Cow and Chicken cupcakes.

Pig and Lamb cupcakes.

Noah's first taste of cake!

This is about as messy as he got, little clean up for mom and dad :)
