Santa comes early

Santa came early to J because we weren't going to be able to get such a big present home from Grandma and Grandpa's house. What an excited little boy. He loves his new kitchen.

J had such a fun time making sugar cookies. He loved rolling and using the cookie cutters. None of the cookies he did actually were baked because he ate what he was working with. This was yummy playdough!

First time with Santa

I wasn't quite sure if Santa would be a good thing or scare him, so we took it slow and he wanted to go see. He did a great job. He was very quiet and shy but he let me put him on his lap and walk away. The best part of course was the present Santa gave him. I think that was the motivation the whole time.

Snow fun

Loves playing in the snow. He calls snowballs eggs and wanted to keep throwing them. Only when he realized he was freezing did he start crying so he came in and we peeled off all the layers.

Birthday practicing

Jake likes to play "birthday". He gets out his candle and his cake and sings and then blows out the candle and eats the cake. Never gets old...

Park and Leaves

He spent the day with C. While the weather was great we went to the park, picked a pumpkin and played in the leaves. It was a good time.

Home Birthday

Part 3

The rest of the Utah extended families came to celebrate and had dinner and presents and cake and ice cream.

Aunt C made an AWESOME Mader cake. He was smiling at it the whole time.

The push-Mader was definitely a hit.

He also loves the fire truck and cars and the large sewing noodles.

Bear Lake Birthday

2nd Birthday Part 2:
This is celebrating with Mom and Dad in Bear Lake on the actual big day. He was really getting the hang of the candles and opening presents.

trying to eat the whole thing...at one time!

Fallon 2nd Birthday

Love cards in the mail!

It's Lighning!

"Andy Doll"

Mr. J got a triple birthday celebration this year for his big 2. The first was in Fallon with Gpa and Gma. His favorites were the CARS blanket, CARS card and singing card from the great-aunts, Raggedy Andy, and a Tool Bench complete with a power drill.

The giant pumpkin

We found a pumpkin that made J look like a midget! He loved touching it and hitting it. If he could have I am sure he would have tried to climb it!

Hallelujah

This is one of those cards that make music when you open it. J discovered it and loves to open and shut, open and shut...hmmm, wonder if we need to make it disappear for a little while!

Doing the dishes

Yes, water gets EVERYWHERE, but he sure loves to do the dishes...even if he has to stand on the tippie toes!

Camping

J's favorite thing to do was to open the door for the crank and "fix things".

Hanging out at the waterfall

Intro to smores Of course they are messy and he didn't love that.

Heavy kiddo.

Out cold...

Making pancakes

Ahh, the good life. Crackers, juice and kicking back!

Donut Falls-sorry no donuts

The hike to the waterfall was definitely worth it. He could have stayed all day even though he got a little too wet!

J loved to play in water and the jeans got a little soaked....

J was helping to "cook" dinner and was very busy stirring and stirring.

We had a great time and the longer we were there, the more J loved it.

Golfing...

Notice club is in left hand...excellent form.

Sizing up the hole.

For Mom's birthday we went miniature golfing. It was definitely a thumbs-up for J. Mom and Dad had to stop keeping score because he was just being too helpful.
