Jacobs First Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This morning when Jacob woke up, Jared and I went into his bedroom blowing the horn and singing happy birthday. He sat in his crib and smiled looking up at us. Jared picked him up with a big Happy Birthday. I video taped of course. The house was all decorated and you should have saw him look around at the streamers on the ceiling. He looked all over from one streamer to the next. I gave him the horn to hold. He would hold it out for Daddy to blow and then he wanted me to blow it. I gave him a piece of the streamer to hang on to. So he had a horn in one hand, streamer in the other and he wasn't going to let go of either. I made him eggs for breakfast which he didn't really like, so I fixed him his oatmeal and fruit. We got him a couple of presents to open today so we put them on the floor and waited to see what he would do. He went back and forth touching both presents but did not tear them. I started a tear and he ripped that piece off. He stood up and walked around with it so proud of the piece of paper in his hand. I helped him start a couple of piece and he ripped them the rest of the way. He stood up with a piece in each hand and walked over to look out the window. I helped him and opened them up the rest of the way. He got a mega blocks truch with Bob the builder and a hammer that lights up and makes funny noises. He played with them while Jared and I got some things ready for tomorrow. We went into town and got donuts, muffin, coffee and pop. I went in and got Jacob him own donut. It was his first time eating a donut - I got him a chocolate frosted like Daddy gets. He loved it. Every time I'd give him a bite he'd stick his hand out right away for another. He ate half and then I put it away. I think he would have eaten the whole thing but I didn't want him to get sick. We went to meijer for a few things and then we went over to the mall to let Jacob play in their Dow Chemical play area. He had so much fun. He was all over the place. At one time Jared left and I said, "where's Daddy". He looked all around for Daddy and then Daddy came back. There was a little boy only about a week younger than Jacob there. Were back at home now and Jacob's taking a nap.
