I can't believe it... My oldest baby is six.
He was born on August 30, 2006 weighing 8lbs 12oz... 23 days after his due date!
A year later he was a running ball of energy who only ever slowed down when he was sleeping:
At 2 he got his first trike and spent much of his birthday on the couch with Mama who was on bedrest thanks to his little brother:
By three he fully cultivated curls... oh the curls!
At 4 his one wish for his birthday was mini golf. I agreed, but only once it was evening time because I was 38w5d pregnant and OMG the heat!
Last year he was a 5 year old who was on his way to full day every day school for the first time.
And now I have a sweet, adorable 6 year old. Just days away from entering first grade. He loves his brothers and beyblades and Superman and his "Auntell" as he says it (Aunt El)
Happy Birthday, Tobias (aka Abias formally Toe-bob formally Bop Bop formally BABA per your friend Enid who you used to call Did-did). As you can tell, I am remembering your first couple of years. I cannot get over how big you've gotten and how much you've changed over the years...and how much you haven't. HAHA. I hope that today was everything you hoped a 6th birthday would be and more. Have a great year in grade one. Your friend Enid sends her love(she didn't say so because she is fast asleep, but I know she does. You should have seen the look on her face when your mother came to church without you!)
