Fabulous Fours



I'm a bit behind...but a few weeks ago, Noah turned 4! Since his birthday was in the middle of the week, I convinced Walt to take one of his 500 vacation days and we headed to the zoo. Here he is with his present from us - a classic Big Wheel!(Yes, he is wearing Christmas pj's...but they fit and they're the perfect weight for this weather!)


We had an excellent day at the zoo, even though it was field trip day for what seemed like 57 schools. The highlight of this zoo trip were the baby beavers. Have you seen them? If not, you should. They are unbelievably cute. The momma beaver would tuck them in to the nest...and the second she turned her back to continue moving a big stick to where she wanted it...they would escape the nest and go for a swim. Here's momma carrying one of her pesky babies back to the nest.
After the zoo, he took some time to ride his Big Wheel, then we went to Red Robin for free birthday burgers! (Walt's birthday is the day before Noah's - so they each had a free burger coming). They sang to him and gave him a free icecream, which he thought was awesome. We ended the night by letting him stay up past his bedtime to watch the TV show, Wipeout. He gets a kick out of seeing all the people doing the dumb stunts. His party was the following Saturday and that post will come soon!

WOW - FOUR ALREADY?? On the other hand, he looks so big (and happy!) on that bigwheel... I hope you all had a fabulous Noah Birthday.

(A side note, that momma beaver has a really annoyed look on her face - like "how many times have I told you..."!)

Hope you guys are good - lets do our annual lunch (ha) soon!
