happy birthday jacob!


yesterday jacob turned 2. (i like to let everyone know that he has been ACTING 2 for about 6 months now, but yesterday we got to celebrate the official day). :)

jacob woke up on his birthday morning, and the first thing he said was "ba-gol (bagel)....bite it". so mommy let him have a special birthday breakfast: a bagel with cream cheese and homemade strawberry jam for "dip-dip". and as i was cleaning up the huge sticky jam and cream cheese mess after breakfast, it confirmed for me that this is NOT going to make it on jacob's breakfast menu for a long time.

after i destroyed what could have been a delicious roast beef for dinner, we finished up with yummy cake!




i think he was REALLY happy about his cake!


we were trying to teach jacob how to hold up 2 fingers to say he is 2 years old...but he can't get it quite right on his left hand, which wants to say he is 6 years old.


we finished off the day with a movie and popcorn- 2 of jacob's favorite things.
we look forward to celebrating with friends and family on saturday!
and i can't resist sharing this cute picture of kate in her cute hat, taken while we were enjoying a gorgeous afternoon outside.

I love it! I love it! I love it! What a GREAT birthday boy! The video is perfect! The pictures capture his excitement wonderfully ...and Kate! how cute she is. LOVE the hat, Kate! Can't wait to kiss you both! XO XO -- (Was Jackson singing or did he want the cake?) Gammie

Love the huge smiles and the finger/hand up. I remember Jacob holding up both hands for two! Congrats to you both on two years of parenting; the best job in the world!

jackson was whining for the roast that was sitting on the edge of the table...i guess he thought he was going to get some if he whined loud enough!
