Happy 2nd Birthday Nolan

Happy Birthday Nolan!



On March 27, 2008 at 10:28am you came into the world and changed our lives forever. You brighten our days with your giggles and smiles. The way you crinkle your nose when you are being silly melts our hearts and although your screams of excitement are blood curdling, they are still insanely cute (maybe not when we are in public though!)

You are one passionate little boy with a love for trains, cars, bugs and mud puddles.

Your innovation is impressive, as I type you've pushed a truck up to a bookshelf so you could be 8" taller and reach the books that are special for bed time.

You are completely fearless when it comes to everything. You'll eat anything and everything in your path and you don't pause for even a second before scaling the 18 foot ladder and throwing yourself down the Jump Around Fun Zone slide. You have been trying to jump with both feet off the ground for months, and recently, most likely with some help from the JAFZ, you can jump with both feet and you are so proud of yourself (and so are we!!)

You are now talking SO much. You are saying your ABC's and you really like saying "WX" and "HIJK" when you get to LMNO you sometimes say Elmo, which is pretty stinking cute! You can even point to a letter and correctly identify it!

You have a creative way of counting, right now you say "2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9. 0, 11, 14, 15 YAY"

You have perfected tantrums, we never wonder whether you are happy or sad, you really let us know!! Shopping carts seem to be your arch nemesis and getting you to sit in them is a battle, but you realize at some point that mommy and daddy WILL win and you give up! We will continue working on this one!

You are SO creative. You are so great at playing the drums and your coloring is great! You can draw circles and you even told me one of the circles was an Apple! You will play with stickers for hours if I let you, especially car stickers!

You enjoy playing with your friends, although you don't so much dig sharing with them.

You help mommy with the dishes by handing her plates as she puts them away and you love helping mommy with the laundry, although we have to watch to make sure you don't put a random toy in while you are helping!

You are a joy to have as a son and we love being your parents! We have enjoyed the last 2 years more than we can ever express and we look forward to watching you learn and grow. We love you Through and Through...yesterday, today and tomorrow too!!
