More Snow

Hi!

Last weekend it snowed again in Atlanta. Jake and I waited all day and finally at about 3:00 it started and went on for hours. We ended up with almost 4 inches of snow...which is unheard of around here! When Jake woke up from his nap I went into get him and he was lying on his bed staring out the window. I walked in and he said "snow Mommy."

So we got bundled up and went outside to play. It lasted a few minutes but when Daddy got home that was when the fun started. Jake loved to be hit with snowballs. He just laughed and laughed. It was wonderful. Brian tried to get him to make snow angels but Jake was not into it!

It was so nice to see snow again! It was a beautiful winter wonderland!

Jake's 2nd Birthday Party

This weekend we celebrated Jake's 2nd birthday. I know his actual birthday isn't until the 23rd but we decided to have the party a little early since I am due March 1st. Anna and Joe brought John Payne on Thursday so the cousins got to play together for 2 whole days. Our house sure was wild but we had such a good time. They wore each other out which was great!

My parents flew in on Saturday and it was time to party. Lots of people came over and there were kids everywhere. Balls were flying, kids were running around. Needless to say Jake had a ball. He loves to have friends over to entertain.

Grandma and Poppy stayed until Monday so we all watched the Superbowl together Sunday night. Jake was definitely more interested in his puzzles. He was constantly bringing them to Grandma to help put together. It was a great weekend and Brian and I are so blessed to have Jake. Thank you to everyone who came and helped celebrate our baby's 2nd birthday. I can't believe he is going to be two. How did that happen?
