Birthday for Jacob and Abby

Last Saturday, April 18th, was a combined birthday party for Jacob and Abby at Jenn and Tim's home. Bob and I picked up Mom and Dad and took them over for the party. My brother, Paul, and sister, Barb, also came to share the birthday celebration. Jacob is now 4 years old - April 15, 2005. And Abby is going to be 2 on May 1. Jenn made the cutest LadyBug cake and put 2 candles in the head for Abby, and 4 candles in the body for Jacob. They got lots of nice gifts. Jacob was not too thrilled with the quilt that I made him. But Abby loved the quilt that Grandma made and sat in Grandpa's lap with it wrapped around her all afternoon.

As I look back over the last 4 years, I wonder where the time went? How did that tiny little baby boy who weighed in at 5 lbs. and was just 17" when Jenn took him home, grow up to be a busy, active 4 year old preschooler? He has a head for numbers and loves to sing. Just like this Grandma. That makes my heart smile.
