Stitches, and Birthday Cake

Just wanted to put up some new pics, you might notice that Jacob's habit of banging up his face before big events still holds up. Wednesday before we left for STL to have his B-day party we got a call from daycare that Jacob tripped and fell into a table and hit his forehead. It was split open pretty bad, and bleeding quite a bit, so Carie took him into urgent care were Jacob got about 8 stitches. He was a very brave boy, even as they had to put him in a strait jacket to hold him down. Mom did very good throughout all his stitches, singing him songs to calm him down. Then once all the sewing was done, Carie ended up passing out, giving the nurses two patients. Everybody is OK, and after he got stitched up, Jacob hardly even noticed his owie, until Carie and I got to take his stitches out tonight, he didn't care to much for that, how's that for a birthday present from mom and dad.

Jacob celebrated his 2nd birthday party along with his uncle Matt's 32nd on Saturday in Stl at our friends house where they have a nice pond for everyone to swim in. Jacob had a great time, and is in toy overload, and Matt got to have a cool Thomas the train cake. Carie also heard about this website called Houseparty.com or something like that, where you sign up to have a party for just about anything, in this case Fisher Price, You set up a party to showcase whatever company you are interested in and they send you their product to get some exposure I guess. Well anyway, they sent us two huge boxes full of Fisher Prices' latest and greatest toys, (did I mention toy overload.) some of them look pretty expensive, like a pony that he bounces on and connects wirelessly to the TV, which then reacts to every button or bounce that he does. pretty cool. Excellent deal, if you need toys or a margarita maker or whatever try it out. Everything is free for you to keep, you don't have to try to sell anything to your guests and best of all you don't really have to have a party, just invite your friends and have them play along.

We also got Jacob a big boy bed last night, which he loves, he laid down on all the mattresses at the store and tried them out. He seems to be doing really good in it, no issues so far.

This should make a cool scar!
