On August 2oth our baby turned 3! I can hardly believe it. We have never had one make it to 3 without having a new little one. It just can't be (and truth be told we would love to have another one here already, but it is not always up to us). It has been a delightful 3 years. Jacob has always had a very pleasant, happy disposition. His teacher at preschool calls him "smiley". He is quick to laugh and smile and is just enjoyable to be around. Now he can be down right funny.
He is amazing at talking and it is fun to see what comes out of his little mouth in his cute little voice. He loves planes, trains and automobiles, as well as Buzz and Woody, and all things "cowboy". He carries around a white and pink jump rope he calls his cowboy rope. He has Toy Story cowboy boots which he is extra proud of. He will wear them with church clothes or pajamas. It makes no difference to him.
He loves his brothers and sisters and has all of us wrapped around his little finger. Maybe he is a little spoiled, but I see no way around it with 4 adoring brothers and sisters. We are so grateful to have Jake in our family. He is all the wonderful things about childhood! Happy (late) Birthday Jacob.
Here is Jacob blowing out the candles. He wanted blueberry coffee cake for his birthday. Go figure. It sure was yummy though!
Here he is opening is silly squishy guy. He was so excited by such a little thing.
Smiles from the birthday boy.
Here he is with his new cowboy hat and new scooter. Both a big hit!
