Happy 2nd Birthday, Jack Thomas!

Jack has had a busy week (birthday wise). Presents & cards kept showing up at the door all week! Mims sent Jack, firetruck bedding, for his new big boy bed!! He was beyond thrilled. He is so obsessed with firetrucks.

Nene & Poppa bought Jack a shake and go race track!! He loves playing with this!

Aunt Brittany brought Jack a present.

Jack,John & Matthew having fun with Jack's gifts! He loves his cousins!
Opening gifts..Christmas is going to be so fun this year!
Nene was a lifesaver this week..since I can't do anything..she baked Jack some cupcakes and decorated to make his birthday special.
Rachel brought Jack ice cream & balloons!! He was thrilled!!
Jack had to go to the Dr. on his birthday because he wasn't feeling well. He still had a great birthday though!

I thought Jack's birthday would be horrible because I was on bed rest. But we had such a great day, so many friends stopped by and it was just very special. We are blessed as a family to have such wonderful people in our lives. Michael & I have been blessed to be parents now for 2 years to Jack! He continues daily to amaze me at things he learns..and skills he uses! He is potty trained & sleeps in a big boy bed. He loves coloring, and playing with trucks. He is going to be such a great big brother! I am SO going to have my hands full..but I can't wait! I've realized after being on bed rest for a week and watching other people be "me"..that I truly enjoy my job as a wife & mom, and friend. I love serving at church each week..and I just have a wonderful life. For now I'm going to bake Colin Tate..(I wish we could decide if we are going to call him Colin or Tate...)..and soak up these next few days of resting!!
Thank you for the prayers, calls, meals, and everything in between!

Happy Birthday, Jack! I just told Mike this morning that I expected you to be posting more since you're on bed rest. :) I'm still waiting for you to take me up on my offer to come help you. You have my number! :)
