We finally managed to get together for breakfast at "the Spot," a well-known family restaurant in British Columbia 1928, on Sunday. It's famous for its burgers and for its Pirate Packs for children.
When he opened his gift - a "grown-up" Timex Outlander watch, he was thrilled. He had to put it on right away and then took it off so his Mom could set the date and time for him. He was quite intrigued at how it read the date in numbers and that it had a seconds ticker, too.
Double digits are exciting to reach the first time, and maybe the second or third time. However, once the fourth, fifth, or sixth time comes around, we tend to try to disregard it. But then, if you're like me, you decide to make the best of it and celebrate anyway! Oh, and by the way, if you look at the little video below, don't think we allow him to be all "bad boy" - he wanted a hoodie for Christmas, which I gave him, and he was so thrilled with it, that he pretended to be a "bad boy." He even wore it when we went out for breakfast. So, here's to Noah - HAPPY 10th BIRTHDAY!

Double digit was something new for me, but interesting.

Double digits is a great idea for D. I hope your grandson and family are feeling better. Carver, ABCW Team
That first Double-Digit number is pretty awesome...Happy Birthday Noah....
By the time I got to 7X Double Digit it's not quite as special....
At least I am here to celebrate all those years. (:0)
Great video birthday card Leslie.
Truly the moment a person reaches double digit in age it seems like he/she's arrived.
FRANKLY MY DEAR.
Hope everyone's on the mend (including you!)...Love the name Noah. Grandma seems to know what he likes:)
Yes, I also remember my ten years with sweet nostalgia!
Glad you were able to have a fun celebration for this double digit birthday!!
I remember White Spot burgers in Vancouver, they were good! Loved the video, very cool!
May your grandson Noah have Delightful years of Double Digits. Blessings!
My wishes to Noah too!!
Happy belated birthday to Noah. I was sick on New Years also :( I remember when I turned 10 my Grandmother gave me a 10 dollar bill..which was quite a big deal for a 10 year old 40 years ago!
A very Happy 10th Birthday to your Noah! :) My son also turned 10 last August, it's a thrilling age. Hope the family recovers asap from the nasty flu!
Happy birthday to Noah. 10th birthdays are special.. I'd gifted my niece 10 small gifts for her tenth. What fun that was.
That's really a cute belated birthday wish. Noah looks like he will be enjoying his double digits. I have granddaughter who will be 10 in March.

Despite being late he had a real nice birthday !
Oh to be ten again!!!! Next birthday I will be nine times ten - where have the years gone? Noah looks happy to be into the double digits and I hope he has a wonderful life ahead of him.
wish your grandson my wishes too! I bet he was so happy with his gifts that he didn't mind getting any late. He could look at it that his birthday stretched into February.
10? Really? So soon?
1st January is a great time to have a birthday, he'll always have fireworks. Happy belated birthday to Noah.
Wishing him a lifetime of happiness and joy. Delightful double digiter.
Happy tenth to Noah. Sounds like he had a wonderful day. I'm trying to recall mine now;)
Happy Birthday to Noah! And Leslie, your such a cool Grandma, I Love the video!
I have a big birthday coming up next month. Not sure I want to celebrate it all that much. I'll make it just in time for BC Ferries to cut my discount. Figures. - Margy
A belated happy birthday to your grandson, Noah! I just celebrated my birthday last week, too. You're right, as we get older we tend to disregard it, as I did. Thanks for visiting, Leslie!

A great "Double D" post, Leslie!
Happy 10th to Noah! For kids at that age becoming dd age is a big deal! :) Now when I look back I wish I had never crossed those single digit years! :)
