Could it be

that someone has spent a little bit of time reading Lego catalogs?

Abe's birthday!!

Abe turned five on February 14. And what a party we had the weekend before! He had never had a real "friend party" before, so I had promised him he could have a big one this year. I didn't realize quite how big it would be (you know how you assume that not everyone you invite will come? turns out you can't always assume that), but it still went well. We had it at the YMCA. The kids first played downstairs in the toy/ball pit area (didn't bring my camera, sorry), then upstairs cupcakes and snacks, "pin the shield on the Lego knight," and crafts. I only remember a couple of short-lived tears, and that's not bad for twenty kids. But he's had his big party--next year we will shrink the guest list.




I can't believe my (second) baby is so big! Almost ready for school.
