Happy Birthday Little Man!

Jack is a terror, we all know it! That being said, he is so loved in our home! Especially by his sisters, which is a miracle considering the torture he puts them through. He loves to pull their hair, jump on them, and hit them with his bat. I tell them boys do these things out of love! And they love him right back. Ever since he was born, they are absolutely smitten with him. They truly enjoy playing with him and watching him grow up and learn new things, like "time-out" :).

Dave and I have had our share of hard times with him (me more than Dave!) but we are so grateful to have him in our home and family. We feel like he definitely completes our family (well, Dave does anyway, I'm on the fence!). It's so fun to watch how different he is from our girls, and to see just how much a little boy can be like his daddy!

This week we celebrated Jack's 2nd birthday. His actual birthday was the 20th, so on that day I took cupcakes to the gym for him to share with his little friends that he spends each morning with. Then, after school we took the kids for a swim and had cupcakes after dinner.

The real party came though on Sunday when all of our in-town family came to enjoy dinner, Rock Band, gifts and cake! We were so happy to have everyone here to celebrate our special little boy with us!

How fun!! I always hate missing these parties! I know I just saw him a month or so ago but he seems so much older! I love the picture of the 3 of them by the pool. Happy Birthday little man!

What a cute boy! I love watching him run wild each week! (We each need at least one in a family, or in my case 2)
