Birthdays!

It's the Big Birthday Week! Jacob turned 6 on Tuesday, my birthday was yesterday, and Dad's is today... that's a lot of birthday cake! We had a small party on Tuesday for Jacob with grandparents, and last night Brian and I got to go out for dinner and a late movie (no kids!).
Legos are a big theme in our house right now. Jacob got a couple of new sets for his birthday, and that's kept him busy the last couple of days. He mostly likes to make trains and other vehicles. Here's a creation that he and I made together last week... pretty cool, I think!


This week and next, Jacob and Mary are taking a swim class at Broadripple Park. Jacob is doing much better than last year... he's having fun the whole time, and isn't crying and clinging to the teachers like last year. He's still not as fearless as Mary, though. The guards have to keep bringing her back to the shallow end, as she creeps closer and closer towards the deeper water!

Happy Birthdays all around! Jacob, you're looking so big! Your cake and lego trains are great. I can't wait to hang out and play with legos with you. Mary and Jacob--great swimming. Solomon is still a bit overwhelmed with the pool, so we don't go often. Hopefully next summer we can go to our pool more. Love you guys!
Love,
Aunt Meg
