4 years

Jake is now 4 years old. I was watching videos on my computer tonight of him even last fall and it's amazing how much he has grown and changed. I love his one liners and I do love that he is extremely sarcastic. He is always using big words that are put in the correct terminology and it always boggles me that he can do that. I love that he can sing almost every song on both Glee seasons and that I plays his guitar while he does it sometimes. I love how much his brother loves and him and he loves his brother. I am so blessed to have well behaved and well mannered boys. I cannot be more thankful for them.

Jake got to spend his birthday being spoiled rotten! He and Eli spent the night at 37th and live it up. They got to go to the Bass Pro Shop (Jake's favorite store), eat there, and get loved on all day. We went over to my parents and brought all the food to have dinner. We grilled out and ate a fantastic meal. The 4 year old got to open all of his gifts, which were more then enough. He ate cake, candy, and got to play with sparklers. He was surrounded by people who love him and he had such a fantastic day. He told me on the way home "Mom, this was so awesome! I am not sure I can top it next year." I am sure he will. He was so tired and we got home so late that he waited till today to open up all his gifts from us. Then I spent 3 hours putting together a lego train set, and 2 race tracks. The lego set...talk about a pain. I spent an hour and a half just on that one. If that thing even gets taken apart or breaks.....let's just say I will not be happy. Jake is now rotating from one thing to another. He somehow combined all of them into one big story line and the trains are helping out the cars to get away from the pirates. I love his imagination.

Jax is also 7 months old today. He is crawling and getting into everything. I still love him to pieces. He makes me smile no matter what and he is always ready to great you with a smile. I will say, he is not a carrot fan though. Too bad for him, I made a large batch so he has to eat it at least 4 more times. I will try and bring it back in a month and see if he will eat it then!

I might have to post a blog with just photos. I haven't uploaded them from my camera. My SD card holds about 500+ photos and I only have 101 left. I am sure, over half will be deleted but I will post some updated photos soon!
