Happy Birthday Noelle!!

We celebrated Noelle's 8th birthday yesterday! What a girl! It took me back to the cold day when she was born, when we waited anxiosly to see the cute baby that was born with crazy curly black hair. We weren't sure we'd be able to love our second child as much as our first, but she came and stole our hearts away!

Here are 8 reasons we love our Belles:

1. As I've said before, Noelle knows fashion, even if that means sacrificing and being cold, or wearing shoes that aren't comfortable, it's all worth it in the name of fashion for Noelle!

2. Noelle loves to talk! She can talk to anyone, any age, for a long time. She went and got her hair cut from a lady in our ward the other day and Sis. Davis came out of it knowing way more about the Nielson's than we ever wanted anyone to know. Yikes! She definately has the gift of gab!

3. She and Marissa are total best friends! So many times we send them to bed, only to hear uncontrollable giggling coming from their room a few minutes later. They love to be silly together and Noelle loves to make Riss laugh.

4. She is our Party Planner, loves to have something exciting going on, even if that means she has to plan it.

5. She loves to be silly and goofy, and doesn't worry about being "cool".

6. She is a smart girl who loves to read, figure things out, and is a great artist!

7. She loves everyone, often referring to several different people as her "best friend". She has a strict rotation on the playground so everybody gets an equal turn playing with her.

8. She is a drama girl, but not in a bad way. She can remember lines from random movies and be able to say them with the same exact accent and everything. She's a totaly ham and loves the attention too.

What a great girl she is! We love you more and more each passing year, Noelle!!
