Last night we celebrated Noah's second half birthday {that's a mouthful}. I picked up my favorite red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting {I just luvre them}, two half dollars {it is his second half birthday after all}, and Noah's piggy bank {I know, I know it's not a piggy} and headed over to Nana and Papa's house.
Noah just LOVED putting the coins in his piggy bank. He got two half dollars from Mama and Daddy-O and those went in the bank very quickly. Noah signed more and please after each coin clinked on the bottom of the turtle so Nana quickly pulled a half dollar out of her pocket and that made it in the bank with ease. Papa was being funny and he gave Noah foreign coins {Punts from our family travels to Ireland before they adopted the Euro}. It didn't matter to my Little Stinkpot. They were round and metal and made a great clink noise so they made it into the turtle as well.
Then we took out the half cupcake {Yumm-O}, put a candle on top and took off Noah's artificial nose in hopes he would blow the candle out. Unfortunately, he was more interested in grabbing the candle than blowing it out. I had to keep signing "hot" and tell him not to touch it.
In the end, I blew out the candle and with a bit of help from Nana, Noah put his fingers in the yummy cream cheese frosting and let me lick it off.
What a fun way to celebrate my little toddler!
