Happy Birthday Noelle

I can't believe Noelle is 1 already...that went by fast! What a blessing you are to us Noelle Rae. We are excited for the years to come.

Here are some photos of our fun day together:

First: to the park with Izzy






Check out my very first tooth!
And I have a new skill as of this week...."free" standing.

And Then: to the pet shop

And Then: to the yogurt shop



And to end the day...birthday cake with Daddy!


The "touch"...one of Noelle's new favorite activities. She likes to touch her index finger to someone else's.
And at last...Mimi and Papa sing "Happy Birthday" over the phone to the Birthday Girl. It is their family tradition.

And...I think Adam loves this. Just a week ago Noelle decided to cuddle with her daddy for the first time ever! Tonight I was trying to take her to bed and she reached out for Adam and cried. Woo Hoo! Now she can't get enough of him. I think she would have let Adam hold her all night. She is such a sweet girl. Being a parent is amazing...it just keeps getting better and better.


And the birthday banner.

Happy birthday to ALL of you! It looked like a very awesome family affair! I always thought that mom should really get a piece of the birthday action for all that she did to get that child there, so........way to go Ali! Oh, and Adam, I guess you deserve some credit too. ;o} Noelle --- you're a doll!
