I kept his party simple this year, honestly I just did not have the energy to do a big party, (especially after Madi's party and baptism) and it turned out that simple was great, he was as happy as could be! We went to the park with friends to play for a couple of hours and I brought "cuk capes", that was party enough for him, he had a grand time! I had been thinking I would do a "Jake" cake for him but the day before he decided he wanted a "Super Why" Birthday, he was on a major Super Why kick that week where he was Super Why and I was the Pig. Every day he was calling me "pig". Nice. I had to remind myself it was more of a term of endearment, he really loves the pig. Love how he pretends though, always keeps me laughing!
We had Hannah and Bowen, Jack and Heid, Tommy and Sarah join us for fun at the park. The night before he was talking about his friends who were coming to the park for his birthday and he told me he wanted "Mel and Jerzi and Evey". He LOVES my sweet friend and neighbor Mel and is in love with her little dog Jerzi. I texted Mel and told her that they were on Jensen's list of friends and she was so great to come! It is so adorable how he loves Mel!
After the park I took him home and we played with his new Jake Lego set from Jack and Heidi, he was also pretty excited about the Mickey bath toy from Tommy and Sarah, I really had to convince him to wait until that night of his bath! Once Dad got home we had pizza for dinner and then the Woodburys came down for 'cuk capes" and ice cream.
Present Time!
Jens is such a joy, he is the light in our home and brings so much love! We all adore him and are constantly entertained by his cuteness. He is always making us laugh with the funny things he says. I love the way he says "cuk cape", calls a baseball mit a "ball catcher catcher" and a tape measure a "measure tape". He makes us laugh saying "I smell like" when he smells something, so instead of saying he smells something he says he smells "like" something. We especially get a kick out of it when anyone is using the bathroom and he says "I don't want to smell like your poop". He has grown out of saying "goccer ball" and now says it correctly and I miss it.
He still loves outside, loves to "ride" scooters with the kids, ride his bike (he is getting pretty good at balancing on the strider bike!) he loves to play with the kids and do whatever they do, especially playing Legos with Brother, but he also has a good time playing LaLaLoopsies with Sissy. He loves to watch shows and loves Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Mickey, "Little Steinsteins" (Einsteins), Henry Hugglemonster, and Octonauts. He has just recently discovered Sherrif Callie, Super Why and Dinosaur Train which are new favorites too. What I love about the shows he watches is how much he pretends them, he is always pretending to be someone and gives the whole family a part in his game. He also loves all the superheroes and his Green Lantern underwear are officially his favorite pair!
He is still a Momma's Boy and I LOVE it! Nothing makes me happier than his little arms around my neck and him saying "I wove you". He is so sweet and he tells me that he loves me frequently with out any prompting. He has his moments when he wants everyone else and whoever is the lucky one enjoys it to the fullest! The kids are so great at taking care of and entertaining him, they play so cute with him it is a great blessing. He also loves nursery (finally! It was a long road to get there) and I love how it calls it "mursery". He loves to play with his friends Heidi, Sarah and Jet. He and Heidi play especially well together and one of my favorite things is to watch him play with her. They have real conversations and play together so cute! He also really loves Grandma and gets so exited when she comes over. He enjoys going to the Halls house and loves their cats. They lost their cat Angel about a year ago and he still talks about "finding Angel" and how "Brookey sad" and he wants to find Angel to make Brookey happy. One day Crystal watched him for me and he was determined to go outside and find Angel, when he found one of their other cats he was convinced he had found Angel and was so happy about it! It is so cute how he loves Mel and her dog Jerzi and he often talks about them, he even likes to pretend to be Jerzi and tells me "Mom I'm Jerzi, you're Mel" sometimes Madi is in on the game and she gets to be Evey. Such a funny boy! He loves little dogs and is excited to see any dog, he also loves the Meyer's dog, Ginger. He also still loves to help me with laundry (he has loved this since just before he turned 1) he loves to push the buttons on the washer and says "I want to make the "funny noise!" He also still loves clocks (he has also loved clocks since he was a baby), he points out clocks any where we go and he loves to help me wind our clock in the "diming room". I love how when he asks me for something he's excited about and I say yes (to watch a show, a treat, or whatever he's wanting at the moment) he's response in an enthusiastic "yay!" I wish I could record him and catch all the funny little things he says, he is such a happy, sweet, fun and loving little boy, we are so happy we have him!
