The Pool Noah's Favorite Place to Splash!



"Big Boat for my Birthday"






For weeks leading up to our cruise Noah has been talking about going on the "big boat for his birthday" and believe it seemed that everyone on the cruise that Noah was turning TWO. Noah had a blast and is sure to be a regularly cruise like his Aunt Shelley aka Mrs Harkins. Noah spent every waking moment in the pool, running around the pool, on the slide, dancing and eating. The day we were at port in Cozumel Noah loved the sand, the beach the cool pool with the fountains and the friends he made. Noah was a trooper staying up until 10pm and then staying in Camp Carnival for babysitting until Midnight so Mommy and Daddy could dance the night away!

While celebrating Noah's Birthday on the cruise he woke to a room/door decorated with balloons, spent the day at the beach and had the whole dining room singing to him and watching him open presents and blow out his candle. Sometimes I think Noah thought the whole cruise was JUST for him.

Noah got to see the shows and will continue to say that his favorite part of the cruise was the Dancers. He loved watching the show and putting on one of his own as well. He know has mastered kicks, spins, "happy feet" and his newest move is the crab.

Like anyone else another favorite of Noah's on the cruise was the food! A stack of pancakes for breakfast and can you believe at dinner he would request pizza, french fries, ice cream and chocolate cake. And boy did he get it and eat every last bite. He even sucked back is own virgin strawberry daiquiri while in Cozumel. So much for just tasting Mommy's!

Overall cruising with Noah was a great experience and we look forward to doing it again. Not to mention our entourage of friends that traveled with us. Can't wait until next year!
