The Birthday Party...

For Noah's party this year, we recycled The Very Hungry Caterpillar theme from Noah's bestie Lucy B. Cragun {his NICU neighbor}.  Thanks a million Abby for letting us use all your AMAZINGLY cute party stuff!  You're the best!  The party was a hit!  Here are a few highlights...

Prenatal Development Exhibit at OMSI


This exhibit was so surreal.  It brought tears to my eyes to see these tiny lives that never got a chance to live on this earth.  There were babies/fetuses/embryos on exhibit at every stage in utero from 2wks to 38wks.....

Noah is pictured by a 1lb fetus.....most of our family with us at the museum never had the opportunity to see Noah at his very tiniest. They were stunned that he was born so incredibly tiny.
