Jake had a great birthday....we celebrated ALL day long! Brian and I went into his room when he woke up in the morning with a lit candle and sang "Happy Birthday".....it was Brian's idea and I thought it was so cute and that Jake would love it....we were both excited to sing to him.....and he looked at us, almost in tears. and said "I didn't want you to sing to me". Ah, this age is unpredictable!! We cheered him up with a trip to the donut shop and then to the bowling alley. Finished it off with the traditional birthday dinner at Grammie's house......you get to pick your favorite dinner and dessert. Since we've established that Jake is not a fan of dinner at all, we decided to just let him pick his OWN dinner and we would all eat a "normal" dinner meal....thank goodness we opted for this route, or we would have all been dining on Fiber One cereal...yes, that was what he chose for dinner. He loves his new bike (thanks Papa and Tutu), his new power tools (though we wish the chainsaw had a VOLUME control!), and his new helmet. He wore it in the car, watching TV, etc.....luckily, he did not insist on wearing it to bed. Can't believe that it was 3 years ago that we became parents....we could not be more proud of our little man and it would be impossible for us to love him more. Happy Birthday, Jake!!!!
