The first thing Jacen wants to do when he wakes up in the mornings is go outside!!!
Jacen and I made a trip to Lowe's to buy some screws, and he loved the kitchen section because he could open LOTS of doors!!!
Working on the Fort like Uncle Jeremy (And yes, that is what he keeps saying) :)
Katelyn came over to play.

An attempt at a group picture.  You will notice Jacen wouldn't sit.  He is the one in the blue shirt facing the other direction.  He is still acting like a 2 year old :(

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!!!!
Grandma, MiMi, and Aunt Laci trying to show Jacen his presents.
Jacen having fun on the cake table with Laura!!!
Playtime :)
Hailey trying to convince Jacen to open a present. :(
Jacen helping Larisa sweep :)
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.
