Our "baby"

I decided to pull out some of Jacob's baby stuff just to get a little bit organized. When I took this little travel bassinet out he started saying "baby... baby" and climbed right on in. I thought it was funny.......



"Do I fit?"



















"How about this way?"





















"Peek-a-boo!"


There's never a dull moment with this kid!!

Our silly boy

There are so many things that Jacob does these days that make Paul and I laugh. And with each day that goes by, the list gets longer. Here are a few that I can think of off the top of my head...

1. Every night before bed, Jacob asks to dance. So we crank up the music and dance. If he doesn't like the song we put on, he says "song." Paul's taught Jacob some pretty interesting dance moves :)
2. Jacob loves to give hugs and kisses and to tickle. Whenever he hugs he says "hug" when he kisses, he says "kiss" and when he tickles someone he says "tickle".

3. Every meal we have, Jacob asks for cereal.

4. Okay, this one is not that funny but seeing that he's a Conzelman male, it makes sense.... When Jacob farts, he laughs! :/

5. While saying prayers at night or before a meal, Jacob smiles and watches Paul and I until we say "amen" and then Jacob says "amen" over and over again.

Jacob's 2nd Birthday

Jacob celebrated his 2nd birthday this last weekend with a small party at home with our family. It was themed "Go Diego, Go" because he adores Diego. Every morning we let Jacob choose one show to watch and 9 times out of 10 he chooses Diego. Jacob's favorite thing to do at his party was bouncing in the bounce house. He only came out to get right back in. Oh, and for "CAKE" which he couldn't stop saying once he saw the cupcakes. About a month ago I thought it would be a good idea to practice blowing out a candle so he'd be ready on his birthday. Well, the first couple times practicing, he basically just spit on the flame. That's when I decided cupcakes would be best for his birthday :) But by the time his bday came, he was a pro at blowing out a candle! We had a fun day celebrating with our family. I cannot believe he's already two. It's absolutely amazing how time flies by. Happy Birthday Jacob. We love you and look forward to another amazing year watching you grow and learn. We are blessed to be able to love on you every day.
