Jacen's 2nd Birthday - Part 2

Thank you to Stephanie Medina's Mom (Alison) for making the Dino Dan cake and cupcakes!!  They were wonderful!!!

Jacen acted very much like a 2  year old!!!!  He didn't want us to sing, and he would only eat the dino off the top of the cupcake and not the cupcake itself.

But he did like the balloons :)

Jacen refused to open presents, so all the other kids opened presents for him!!!  Wow that was crazy!  Thanks to Kristin and Margaret for getting all of the gifts written down!!!!

Thank you to all that were able to come to the party!  It was great to see everyone!

Jacen's 2nd Birthday - Part 1

On Jacen's actual birthday, we began celebrating with doughnuts and chocolate milk!!!

Later on in the afternoon, we had cupcakes and presents!!!!

Granny B and PawPaw sent books because they weren't going to be able to make the birthday party.

That morning, Kyle and I went to Nathan's grave to place flowers, pray, sing, and read.

 That evening, we took the lambs that were bought by our family and us to NICU in Nathan's honor.  If you click on the 2nd picture, you can read the note.

 Kyle giving Becca (one of the NICU charge nurses) 45 lambs.

 Jacen and Becca playing :)

We enjoyed getting to see the nurses that we knew that were on duty.  We appreciate all of the wonderful nurses in NICU.  We hope that maybe the small gifts to the families and babies will make someone's day. 

I Can't Believe it is June!!!!

We made trips to Science Spectrum the past two Fridays.

May 20th, we had playgroup with our Sunday School class.  Then Jacen and I stayed and played a little while longer.  

Hudson, Payce, and Jacen looking at the fish :)

Jacen is becoming more adventurous.  He enjoyed this toy for the first time!

He always loves this toy because of the door :)

He loves bubbles and has actually started being able to make bubbles at Science Spectrum!!!

May 27th, we played with Kim and Katelyn.

Jacen and Katelyn loved the Bubble table, but I couldn't get a good pic of any bubbles they made.

I love the expression on his face while he watched!!!

He played in the maze with some girls that were there.  I think he was chasing them :)

Aunt Laci came to visit Friday!!!!

Last Monday evening, Jacen and I met Holly and Laura at Chick-fil-A to eat.  Laura enjoyed entertaining Jacen :)

We took a wagon ride earlier this month and wanted to see if Patches would ride with Jacen.  This lasted about long enough to take this pic :)

 Jacen loves playing "tug" with Patches!!!!

 Jacen wanted to play in the sprinkler instead of his pool.

 Yay!!!  He is finally interested in the basketball and goal.

Jacen with Ken one of his Sunday School teachers.  We love Ken and Shirley!!!!!!

One day last week, Kyle called me and said look outside.  It was a beautiful sight, so I had to share.

Short Picture Week!!!!

We always seem to stay busy, but I didn't take many pictures over the past week and a half.  Jacen and I enjoyed visiting my "coworkers" at Wilson Middle School last Wednesday.  We had lunch last Thursday with some of our Hospice friends.  Last Friday we had playgroup at Dondra's house.  We have playgroup at Science Spectrum today.  Maybe I will remember to take pictures :)

This past Saturday my PawPaw passed away.  I traveled to Kerrville on Sunday afternoon.  Then rode with the family to Camp Wood for the service.  Please pray for my Dad's family as we deal with this loss.

Last Wednesday, we meet the Davis's at the Science Spectrum.  Jacen loves this fire truck and plays in it everytime we go!!!!

Playing at the House

Jacen cooked me some food :)

Jacen is so entertained by doors.  He played with the garage door for 20 minutes.  He tried opening it with the handles and tried unlocking it with my keys. 

We played at the playground close to our house yesterday.  I loved the expression on his face in this pic!!!!
