Our little guy is seeming not so little now

It's hard to believe but we celebrated Jake's 2nd birthday last week. He was VERY excited about the presents and blowing out the candles...he didn't care so much about the cake (surprise, surprise). His favorite toy was definitely his helicopter which he insisted taking to bed with him. Nothing like cuddling a hard plastic toy! He is seeming older these days. He is saying and understanding so much more each and every day. It's a pretty fun stage right now. We are trying to enjoy the last days as a family of 3 (plus a dog).
