Today is Noah's fifth birthday. We all got up and ready, and before going to school Noah had an eye and ear test at what will be his new school this fall.





He passed the hearing test but failed the eye test. I tend to think it was because of the way the test was administered rather than actual eye issues, but poor eyesight certainly does run in his family (on both sides) so I wouldn't be very surprised if it turns out he needs glasses. I just haven't noticed any sight issues, and instead of having him say "O" when there was an "O", the nurse had him finding the "O" and pointing to it on a piece of paper. Regardless, I'll make sure he has another eye test during his upcoming physical.

Headed to drop Noah off at school after the Kindergarten screening, then I did some quick grocery shopping before heading back to Noah's school for his birthday celebration.

He was weather boy for the day:



and he added his birthday cake to the month of March on the class' birthday calendar:



He was given a ring:



and a crown to wear:



which he promptly put on the head of love of his young life, Laci:



We all sang "Happy Birthday" and he blew out his candle:



All of the kids enjoyed their cupcakes and then we went outside to play in the playground for a while:





Then Mr. Lucky Birthday Pants got some McDonald's for lunch:



I put together some goodie bags for Noah's party:



and when Tim got home we headed to Chuck E. Cheese:



Had some pizza:





Played some games and stuff:





















The kids posed with Chuck E. himself:





and we got a family portrait done:





Once we got home, I wrapped Noah's gift and got more goodies ready for his party:
