Happy Birthday to Jacob!!
Yes, in case you were expecting a HUGE two year old party, this will completely surpass your expectations! How much better can it get than a "chocolate sprinkle" donut from Wal-Mart? Well, to a two year old it simply doesn't get any better!! I must give Jared the credit for introducing "donuts" to Jake. Each week when I had a baby doctors appointment and couldn't drive while on bed rest, Jared and Jake would drop me off then do grocery shopping at Wal-Mart. So one time Jared thought it would be "cute" to buy Jake a "donut" so after just a few times Jake was hooked. But Jared couldn't resist the super sweet high pitched way Jake would say, "Dadda, dough-nut?" Sadly, 5 weeks later Jake is excited to go shopping simply for a "donut!" Thankfully it doesn't result in a tantrum quite yet only a sweet request for a "dough-nut."
The proud parents of the best two year old ever!
Jacob doing his best to say, "two" and hold up two fingers...well, I think holding up "two" hands counts right?
And what birthday party wouldn't be complete with presents? Well, we did give him a present just a few days before...remember his basket ball hoop? He has LOVED it! But today I happened to find a package of toy cars that were given to him for Christmas under my bed. So I figured, hey he has no idea, we'll give it to him today for his birthday! He was super excited!
I'm so glad Jake was so understanding about not having a HUGE party! Life around here is a little busy for all the relatives (new baby), my parents on vacation with the twins, Shan & Todd going on vacation...and my other reasons why not to stress about a big party! By next year I'll be ready to host a party for a 3 year old! Tonight for FHE I decided it would be fun to watch his baby video with the kiddos. I introduced the idea about families and how little ones come to our homes. I was hoping this would introduce the idea of our new little baby #3 will be coming to our family. It worked great, the kids LOVED watching the baby Jake and how tiny he was. I think overall it was a great day for this big two year old!
Happy Birthday Jake - We LOVE you!

thanks for sharing more delightful pictures. The perfect birthday cake for a two year old who probably loves his dough-nuts better than cake anyway.
