Jace was born on December 28th, 2006 in Mesa, Arizona. He weighed 9 lbs. and came out with a head full of dark (almost black) hair. He slept through the night almost immediately and was the easiest baby I'd ever had. He was always content and peaceful and brought that to our family in a time of upheaval--we were selling the house and getting ready to move to Kansas . Yesterday he turned 2. Happy Birthday Jace!!!
I remembered today that my mom sometimes made face plates for us for lunch. So I thought it would be fun to do today on Jace's birthday. Do you like my mac and cheese beard?
The Birthday boy or girl always gets to lick the batter for the birthday cake. I let Jace pick which cake mix he wanted out of yellow, orange, or chocolate. He didn't bat an eye and went straight for the good stuff---chocolate!
Cardon really wanted to give him a present but we didn't have the kids get anything for him because he's 2 and it was just Christmas (*I know I won't get away with that in the future, but I'm going to use it to my advantage now). So Cardon wrapped up one of his own stuffed animals to give to him. It was such a sweet gesture and I must say---nice wrapping!
So now the cute monkey and buffalo belong to Jace.
Grandpa and Grandma VanOrman sent Jace the set of balls. He couldn't have been happier. Balls are everything to him right now.

Grandpa and Grandma Lewis sent him this fun farmer car guy. He loves pushing his head and watching him go.
What a fun day for Jace. Church in the morning, a face plate for lunch, batter for dessert, a nap in the afternoon and pizza, cupcakes and presents in the evening. We love you "big guy". Happy Birthday!!!!!

Wow, he did have a lot of dark hair! I never saw him as a newborn so I'm glad you posted those. I'm so glad to see you're blogging because I love hearing about your family. You're so creative in all your fun little experiences with your children. I love it! You're such a great mom!
