Weighing in at 38 pounds, shorty low pockets has turned 5 years old!!!!!!!! He's swimming, he's riding a bike, he's reading, he's baiting his own fishing rod, he's playing video games and he's currently obsessed with Pokemon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yep, that sounds like a 5 year old!!!

Noah woke up and didn't realize that it was his birthday. Once I told him, he popped up and was instantly ready to drive to Ma Ma's house! He has been wanting a pool party at her house for almost 2 years now, approximately the day after his last birthday party, he's been looking forward to a party at her pool!!! Sadly, I had to break the news that we were staying local. It was really difficult to figure out how we wanted to handle Noah's birthday this year. Josh is currently in Paris for the Paris International Air & Trade Show. Josh had to miss Noah's birthday, his own birthday with us, and Father's Day. I know that his heart aches a little being away this week but we are going to try and make it all up when he gets back! We thought about whether or not we should even tell Noah it's his birthday and just celebrate it when Josh was home but with the amount of phone calls he'd have to address...that might be a little confusing for him. So I told him that it was his birthday and it was going to be a special day but that he wasn't going to have a party until Daddy came home and they could celebrate their birthdays together! We are also going to try and go up to Ma Ma's house for the weekend when Josh gets back!

I took Noah and his best friend Jessie, the girl next door, to the base pool where we were going to meet a few of his other friends. I stopped and we picked up SUPER HERO cupcakes for all of his friends that attended. We didn't invite the whole squadron and I didn't consider this his party, it was more of a little playgroup celebration! The kids had a blast running through the water and going up and down the pelican slide. Katelyn was not ready to conquer the slide but she sure knew how to hold up the line as she constantly went up and down the ladder! Not pictured is Noah going down the waterpark like slides and tubes. I wish I could have gotten pictures of him flying out of the tubes! He loved that part! I didn't get the pictures because I had to stay at the bottom of the slide and make sure Katelyn stayed afloat while Noah didn't drown all while keeping an eye on my neighbors child, Jessie!!! It was quite a workout and just a tad bit stressful! I enjoyed watching them all have fun though and it was a great day!

Noah was so tired that he passed up an opportunity to go to Toy's R' US! All he wanted to do was go home and play some more with Jessie! And indeed, he did!!!!!!!!!!!
