Jacob Turns Two!

We can't believe it, but our baby, who is now our biggie boy, is TWO. Time has flown since we first held our little bundle in our arms and looked into his big black eyes. Now he is running around, giving kisses to anyone who will stand still, and sharing his views on every issue he can. He is a true joy, and we are so blessed to be his parents.

We celebrated in Quito with a party at his nursery school, along with a couple of our friends. He quite enjoyed the Elmo/Grover theme, his first pinata (Elmo, of course), and even the "Pin the Nose on the Grover" which was somewhat different since there was a general boycott of the blindfold and taking turns. The Elmo and Grover cupcakes were a hit, despite the fact that most kids were dyed red or blue by the time we finished. Here are a few pictures.

In Maryland, he celebrated with his Oma and Opa, a real blessing.

We can't believe how quickly the time has passed, and look forward with anticipation many more years to come.
