Happy 2nd Birthday, Jacob!

Dear Jacob,
   What a great year it has been! You have changed so much this year and it is so neat watching you grow. You have learned to walk and talk and even sing! You know your colors and you can count to 5 (and when you are done you always say "yay!" and clap for yourself!). You love trains and cars, balloons, Kindermusik, clocks, your swingset, and books. You REALLY love guitars! You carry your blue guitar ("boo tar!") all over the house, and when we ask you what pajamas you want you always say "tars!". You like Mickey and Elmo. Your favorite foods are bananas (nana) and grapes. You have a new baby sister, although I'm not sure you quite grasp that she is here to stay!
   One of my favorite things to watch you do is have a phone conversation. You pick up your play phone, say "hello" very clearly, and then proceed to have a whole conversation in gibberish (but very serious). Then you say "bye bye!". It makes me laugh every time! When I ask you who was on the phone, it is always Emmy or Bubbe.
   You have such a sweet nature and you love to hug and kiss everything, from your stuffed animals to characters in your books. Before you go to bed at night, you say "love you" to Daddy and I.
   Jacob, I love you so much and I can't wait to see what this next year brings!

Love,
Mommy


Birthday Celebration: We started out by giving him some balloons in the morning since he loves balloons.


He carried them all over the house
 

Next we gave him our present- a train table

pretty fancy! There are things that light up and make noise too
 





He played with the table while Sean made one of his favorite breakfasts, crepes
 
Then we went to Monkey Joe's
He loves to "play" the video games
 




















 



Tired!

After lunch (pizza) and a nap, it was time to open more gifts!
He is getting pretty good at opening presents! This one is from Tanta Sarah

After dinner we had cake and ice cream







I think he had a great day!
