Noah's Playhouse

Golden Arches in The Barnyard?

Noah's rendition of Old McDonald Had a Farm:

McDonalds has a farm, E-I-O, E-I-O
McDonalds has a farm, E-I-O, E-I-O
McDonalds has a farm, E-I-O, E-I-O
McDonalds has a farm, E-I-O, E-I-O
Repeat...

Noah's New Bed

Noah is officially moving to his new room... well, at least he's sleeping in there. We haven't actually figured out how to move all his stuff over yet.

Sweet dreams little Noey!

3 Years Old

I just had my 3rd birthday. I had my party on Saturday. There were clowns and presents and a big birthday cake (that I wanted to have for breakfast the next morning :-)

Helping Work On The House

Papa and lots of friends and family just finished working on the house. It was just like watching "the house show" (Extreme Makeover Home Edition). I helped too. I was a little bit scared of the nail gun and air compressor, so I worked on the shed:

Noah the Goof

This is what happens when we let Noah dress himself... he's such a little comedian. :-)

4th of July Weekend

I had a fun 4th of July weekend. I went to the Molalla Kiddy Parade with Mama & Papa on Friday night, and then we worked in the yard on Saturday. After church on Sunday, my friend Daphne came over to my house for dinner (her parents, Ron & Kara Kropf, came too; and so did her little brother, Ellis). After Sunday dinner, we played in my new swimming pool!

Going down the slide.

Ellis had fun, too.

Playing in the swimming pool!

Then on Sunday night, we went over to see my friends Antonio & Diego. We played trains and soccer and we played on their playground. On Monday, the 4th of July, I watched Papa fertilize the front lawn and then we played in the swimming pool again. Then I went to the General Canby Day parade and then to my friend Courtney's house for a barbecue and a few runs down the slip-n-slide, a game of croquet, and a very amateur fireworks display (put on by my Papa and Courtney's Papa).

It was a fun weekend.

Poppy Seeds

Papa got me this really cool new tractor, and I had to test it out. It was raining outside, so I found something in the pantry that I could use...

Poppy seeds!

I don't know why Mama wasn't happy with me... :-)

Mud Puddle

Today I jumped in some mud puddles in our back yard. I got all wet, but I had fun. You should try it sometime.

Tulip Fields

Mama took me to the Tulip fields about a month ago. She says there were lots of pretty flowers there, but all I saw was tractors!

See, I can fit inside the wheels!

That's a big yellow shoe!

I guess there were some pretty flower there, too.

Green Easter Eggs & Ham

I helped Mama decorate easter eggs on Saturday. It was really fun to get all those different colors all over my hands.

Hard at work decorating eggs.

Look Ma, dirty hands.

We went to my Great Uncle Keith & Aunt Jeanne's house for Easter. We had a wonderful meal of ham and all the trimmings. After dinner, we he hid our Easter eggs. After we collected them all, Mom cracked one open... to find that it was raw. We had decorated the wrong carton of eggs! Green eggs & ham anyone?

My Buddies

Last week my buddies, PJ and Dustin Miller, came over and stayed the night. Their mom, Pam, is my baby-sitter when my Mom works. They are just like family to me (well, technically they are my fourth cousins).

While they were here, we played ball outside, played Nintendo, ate pizza, and rode the bus to the playground. I had a lot of fun with them.

A Few of My Favorite Things (from Victoria)

We got back from Victoria, BC yesterday. I got to spend the week with my Grandma & Grandpa Nofziger. We had lots of fun. Here are a few of my favorite things:

I really liked going in a boat across the water.

The seaplanes were pretty cool, too.

I had fun swimming in the heated pool with Mom.

I also had fun shopping downtown with Mom & Auntie Laurel.

I definitely want to go back to Victoria again. It wasn't too hot, and it wasn't too cold; it was just right (for me). But next time, I want to go on a boat across the water every day!

I Wanna' Play Soccer

Sometimes Papa and I play soccer in the hallway. I am really good at kicking the ball. We set up a laundry basket for a goal, and I take penalty shots. Sometimes I play goalie and Papa kicks the ball at the goal; then I dive and make the big save.

Making another big save

I am going on vacation with Mama & Papa next week, so I will see you all later!

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day everybody!

A New Floor Puzzle

I went to Coastal Farm today with Mama to buy me some new rubber boots. But I threw a fit when it came time to try some on, so I didn�t get any. But, I did find this really cool John Deere heavy equipment floor puzzle. Mama knows that I am really good at puzzles (like my Uncle Marc!), so she got it for me.

Posing by the finished puzzle -- cheeezz.

Those are some big machines!
