Jacob turns 2!

Believe it or not, Jacob turned 2 today! It is astounding how fast the time has gone. Everyone tells you that, but experiencing the phenomenon just baffles me.

We had a fun day. The Sharps came to play and have lunch. At dinner we sang Happy Birthday to Jacob and gave him his present from Gary's "Aunt" Geri and "Uncle" Harry. Jacob liked our song so much that he started singing, too. "Happy to me..." OH. SO. CUTE!

This weekend we'll go to Grandma Merry and Grandpa John's house to celebrate Jacob's birthday with our family, and his friend Aaron's, too! Aaron will be 2 next week, also, and the Sharps have become family to us. It will be fun!

Until then, enjoy these photos from today, and a couple of Jacob entertaining Dane earlier in the week. Such a good big brother!

Happy Birthday to Jacob!

It's Football Season!

Thought I'd post a pic of our cute little Bears fans. (Daddy has *nothing* to do with that! Right!)

The poor dears - I hope last night's game is not indicative of the kind of season we'll be having here in Chicago. We didn't pay big bucks for Jay Cutler for nothing!

(Listen to me - I sound like I'm married to a sports fan or something!) :)

Here they are!



Dane's outfit has a cute hat that Mommy found irresistible,
so here's another picture of him:



Go Bears!!!!

Dane - One Month

Yes, already!
I can't believe it, either!
