Jake's 1st Shindig

Jake is 1! He is working on a mouth full of teeth at the moment, which has really affected his eating. He has slimmed down with all of his activity. He is now in the 30th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for height. He is over 20 pounds though, so he is face forward in the carseat. Yippee! No more complaining. We had a small little party with a few friends and their families. Jake took his first ride on the roller coaster with his big brother.

A causal fare of hotdogs, chicken, and burgers was served. The kids all played beautifully together.

Jake absolutely loved his very first cupcake. He appeared to know just what to do with it.

Now a big 1 year-old, Jake is able to ride shotgun with his big bro in the hand-down-jeep from our neighbors.

Jake is no longer completely deferential to his brother Wilken. He asserts himself every so often to let Wilken know just who he is messing with.

It is hard to believe a whole year has passed since our youngest little buddy joined our family.
