Jake's birth - DAY

Jake was so excited about his birthday and he didn't come into contact with anyone for 3 days before or after without mentioning it! Even to people in line behind us at the grocery store! That is SOOO not like him!
We had such a fun day - starting with presents to open in the morning! It was quite a loot! He got games, puzzles, legos, a kite, a super-spy 'piggy' bank, gift card to Toys R Us and thanks to Uncle Ken, even a whoopie cushion (that he couldn't remember the name of, so he called it a "tooter!"). What boy can live without a tooter?
We had a special breakfast of stuffed french toast which was a big treat - and we went to dinner with our friends the Cecil's at Texas Roadhouse. Everyone got a turn sitting on the "horse!" Mandy made Jake a really cool Spiderman cake - so after dinner we all headed back to our house for cake and ice cream!







It was a really fun day. Saturday, we went to Toys R Us to spend the gift card. He already knew exactly what he wanted and that it was exactly $20 - a remote-controlled flying Pterodactyl!

Sarah - the recipe is nothing glamorous, but its super easy! Here ya go:
Stuffed French Toast - spread cream cheese on two slices of cinammon-raisin bread; top with 4 slices ham & pinch bread together around edges to "seal." Mix egg and some milk in a bowl - dip sandwich in egg mixture and cook until golden brown, then flip.
Enjoy!
