Nolan's Construction Birthday Party!

This afternoon we celebrated Nolan's 3rd birthday with a construction theme party! Nolan enjoys building with legos and blocks, reading about construction vehicles, and playing with construction toys!  I think Nolan is going to be a great engineer someday.  Nolan has progressed from building a single house to now making a full town and playing with people in the town he made.  What an imagination my little boy has.

This year for Nolan's party I decided to keep it low key.  Inviting only the grandparents, great grandparents, uncles and aunt, as well as a few close friends.  Due to the Christmas season and office parties only a few grandparents and great-grandparents were able to attend Nolan's party.  Nolan still had a blast seeing everyone and eating cake!

Last night Nolan and I stayed up to make his birthday signs and decorate the house with caution tape!  Nolan and I had a lot of fun decorating.  We are going to leave the decorations up all week until Nolan's actual birthday on the 20th.

Papa literally "dug in" to Nolan's cake with the front loader.  Nolan thinks anything Papa does is great, so Nolan took a bite of icing out of the scoop too.  Nolan gave a thumbs up for the cake and ice cream!

Nolan received great gifts for his birthday.  Nolan is always drinking out of mine and Bill's Tervis cups, so Carol gifted Nolan his very own Lightening McQueen Tervis cup!  Nolan was so excited, he shouted, "A coffee cup!!"

Carter was excited about Despicable Me 2

Nolan had a great birthday party and continued playing with his waffle blocks until bedtime!!  Thanks to everyone for helping Nolan celebrate his 3rd birthday.

Happy Birthday baby boy! I love you so much.
