Happy Birthday Jacob

Jacob is a whopping two years old today! Time sure passes quickly, it’s hard to believe he is two already.  We had his birthday celebration on Sunday afternoon.  We are very close to a family whose daughter is 10 years old and loves horses.  She had a large stationary horse that you could sit on, and play on and she decided, after a visit Jacob had made and how much he loved that horse, that she wanted to give it to him for his birthday.  So here is darling Cowboy Jacob – cheesing at the camera (its so adorable the way he says “cheeeeese” every time a camera appears.

He wasn’t too sure what to make of the boots, however…

He knew all about the presents though. He had no qualms about grabbing a present, plopping it in the middle of the floor and diving in. 🙂

Each child in the past has received a special beanbag from us, imagine our delight when we were able to find a horse one for Jacob

Then it was time for cake – I decided to keep with the cowboy/horse theme and I made a horse head cake:

Figuring out what to do with the candles was a bit harder for him to do, he kept looking at me like, “I thought I wasn’t supposed to get near fire” and then he would point to the flame and proudly proclaim, “HOT!” We finally got him convinced that he could blow them out though.

“Now that that’s done, let’s get down to business.”

“Hey, whatcha doin’? Get that cake back here!”

“Mmmmm…”

“So, have you got any more over there for me?”

And one last cheesey cowboy photo to wrap it all up (He’s just so dang cute!):

Happy Birthday Little Buddy! 🙂
