Jacob is 2!!!

Jacob is a pure joy in our home. He loves to have fun, wrestle and play ball. He speaks so well and he cracks us up each day with the cute things that he says. We love him. Happy Birthday Jacob!!!!!
Jacob loves balls. He can dribble a basketball, throw a football with a spiral, and is just drawn to any balls he sees. I experimented with fondant this year and made this basketball cake. I turned out great and we had fun doing it.

We opened a few presents that night. Steven and I got him a golf club set. I don't have pictures of it(only video) but he is darling with it. We still have seconds thoughts about getting a 2 year old golf clubs but no accidents so far. (cross your fingers)

For his party we carved pumpkins as a family. A good friend of ours gave us some pumpkins this week so it turned out great and we had allot of fun.

Kids, you gotta love 'em

You assume that with a big sister one day the boys will be playing dress up. We did not think that is would be so soon with Jackson.
We got a new dishwasher this month, Yeah. . . . . .

The kids were much more excited about the box.


Miranda got invited to a Fancy Nancy party for a friend of hers. It took a a while to figure out what she was going to wear but check the next picture to see what she decided on.



The party was so fun and the girls had a blast. The moms were invited to come and we all dresses up and had a wonderful "tea party". The mother that put it on went all out and it turned out perfect.
It has been an interesting change in the last few months with all of our best friends moving that had boys Miranda's age and then all these new families move in that we have become good friends with that have girls Miranda's age. We are embracing our girlie side to say the least.

Black Eye

Sibling frustration gone wrong
Who knows, maybe it will look worse tomorrow.

One Month Old

That's right, Jackson is one month old. I know most people say time has flown by but I feel like he should be 3 month by now. It just feels like he is a part of our family and we have had him a while. Jackson has been a wonderful baby, sleeping lots and not to fussy. Miranda and Jacob love him. Miranda is always worried about what he is going to wear each day (the day we took this picture was green day at preschool) and Jacob tries to throw him a ball.
