On Friday we went to Baldwin City to see THOMAS!!! We even got to ride on the train. Noah did really well, he wanted to sit in the open air car and I think it was a good choice. He still talks about going for a ride on Thomas :)
There were tons of fun Thomas activities and all different kinds of train tables (none that compared to Noah's new table, though!)
Noah getting his Emily stamp that got rubbed off on Ryan's shorts on our train ride.

Saturday we went to the zoo...this is the kids and I checking out tamarins
We started his birthday off right by looking at engines on Amazon.com
Noah "winking" at us at breakfast. He just started doing that and we think it's adorable. 
The amazing train table Ryan built for Noah, which he LOVES! 
Here we are looking at more trains in a magazine
Noah's AMAZING Thomas cake!! It was gorgeous!!!

Being pushed on his new tricycle...he can't quite reach the pedals all the way yet.

We had some good tickle time on the driveway. I'm sure the littlest Dieker was enjoying his/herself, too!
I had to take a few bath pictures, isn't he big????
James is getting his toes! Noah had his 2 year check up and he is doing great. The doctor said that he is "very bright" and was impressed with his verbal skills. He is in the 70% for length, 85% for height and 90% for head circumference (no shocker there, lol). What a big boy, we can't believe he's 2 and all the amazing things that he has accomplished in the last year. We are looking forward to what this next year brings...reading....algebra..things like that ;)
