Happy Birthday Jason!


He is 2! I am in shock. I seriously feel like I just had him and then I stop and think and it is hard to remember life without him in our family. Here are some of my favorite things about my little boy:

  • He is always happy (OK, he does have his moments, but for the most part he is just so happy go lucky)
  • He loves to give mommy and daddy hugs and kisses and he immediately tells us after "I nice!"
  • He is the best runner, jumper, and spinner around. When he is finished spinning he sits down and his eyes keep on spinning. It is probably one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
  • When he sees a toy or a blanket that he has not seen in a while he runs to it, hugs it, kisses it and says "ohhhhh!" It is really cute.
  • He knows he is funny and tries really hard to make people laugh by making a funny face, making a funny noise, doing a trick etc.
  • He loves owls. Often he will all of the sudden stop, put his finger to his lips, and shush us telling us he sees an owl. He puts his cute little hands around his eyes like binoculars and hunts for more.
  • He LOVES his family. I have a photo book he looks at with pictures of everyone in our extended families. Quite often he will go through it and kiss all of the pictures.... "I miss Reece....miss Grampraw....miss Dad."
  • He is full of energy.
  • He loves to sing with me and Benj. Five little monkeys swinging in the tree is his favorite and he can snap those monkeys out of the tree really well.
  • He loves to point out the few letters he knows. " Mama a B!" He knows B, T, O, P, S, E, A, I.... there might be more.
  • He is always making us laugh.
  • He keeps me humble :-)
  • He has great hair! It is super thick and wavy. Someday when he is not terrified cutting or combing it will not look like a mullet.
  • He loves anything that is a baby, or small and he thinks is a baby. He will sign baby and say "ohhhhhh Mama a baby."
  • He has cute little freckles on his face and the bluest eyes around.
  • He still uses sign language, but is getting to be a really good talker too.
  • He loves to paint, color, and use glue.
  • I didn't think he would be, but he is shy. Just you watch out though, when he gets to know you you will be his best friend and he will be his energetic loud self.
  • He is a good helper around the house. He loves to help vacuum, clean, put dishes away...
  • He folds his arms and sits quietly for prayers. When we forget to pray at dinner time he will stop us and fold his arms to remind us even when we are at a restaurant.
I could go on and on :-).
I love my Jason and am so happy to be his mom!
