Happy Birthday, Jacob!



Jacob turned two today. Can you believe that?! He insists that he's still one, though. I'll ask him how old he is and he'll say, "One!". Then I'll say, "Nooo..." and then he'll say, "Two!". Then he will follow with, "One!". He sure is stubborn! We've finally wised up with the whole birthday thing and are keeping things low-key for him this year. Might as well wait until he really wants the big party celebrations! We are having a small get-together on Sunday with his best friend, Hannah, Grandma and Grandpa, and two of his favorite people, our neighbor Christian and babysitter Miss Karen. He will be so excited to have so many of his best friends there!



Here are some things about Jakey as he turns two:

Favorite words/phrases: "No!", "Sorry, Mommy", "Yeah!", "Peese!"(please)
Favorite movie: Curious George - he seriously asks for this at least 10 times a day.
Favorite color: "Lellow" (yellow), probably because of Ted
Favorite food: Rice - anytime we're about to eat he starts asking for rice. It's all he ever wants!
Favorite drink: Milk - it's a serious addiction
Favorite sport: Tennis - he runs around with a ball and racquetball racket. Cute!

Some Jakey Translations:

"Cheese!" means camera
"Nice" means his burp rag/blankies. This started because every time he goes to bed I give him a new one and we smell it together and say, "Nice!".
"Ted" means the Curious George movie. Calls it "Ted" because the Man in the Yellow Hat's name is Ted. He LOVES Ted.
"Other One" means the Wiggles with Greg, not Sam
