Choo Choo! Look Who's Two!

I can hardly believe my little baby is two years old. He has been such a blessing to our family and we love him more with every passing day. I thank the Lord for trusting in us to raise him into a God-fearing man and my prayer is that He will grow up to serve God in amazing ways.

We went with a train birthday party theme this year as that is pretty much all we hear about from our little man. It's an understatement to say that he is obsessed.

I managed to find these cute wooden train whistles and train suckers to go in the goody bags that went along with the train theme.



I wanted to keep things somewhat simple this year and just focus on Noah getting together with a few of his little friends for a play date at the park. Lucas was able to take a couple of hours off of work to join in on the fun.

The spread.

I had the idea to make a personalized placemat for all of the kids. I was able to snag some Thomas & Friends images from online to print out and laminate. Almost all of the boys were into Thomas so I figured it'd be a huge hit! Oh, and check out the little conductor's hats I found for each of the boys. I was so excited about these but when I went to give one to Noah to wear he ran from me and refused to put it on. Go figure.

Madeline got into the birthday spirit as well by wearing her cupcake outfit.

The birthday boy!

What is better than getting messy with a truck and some sand? Let's just say most of us needed to undress our boys before they went into the house.

The gang. Five 2-year olds and one almost 4-year old. Fun times! I couldn't help but laugh when one of the boys grabbed a toy and yelled "mine" and within seconds you hear several of the other boys repeating him yelling "mine" as well.

We opened gifts as a family later on in the evening once Lucas was home from work. I promise I didn't even ask Noah to put the bow on his head. He's a natural.

We love you Noah! Happy 2nd Birthday!

What a beautiful day.
