A FedEx Dream Come True....

Greg wanted Jacob to sit on  the ledge of the engine.  Jacob wouldn't have any part of that! The engine might suck him up, he said!

Jacob loves all things FedEx.  He plans on being an Air Traffic Controller for FedEx, of course, when he grows up.  Then the next day he is going to be a aircraft mechanic, possibly a pilot, and maybe even a boss.  Whatever the job may be it all revolves around the purple and orange, FedEx.  On Saturday, December 6, Jacob got to go behind the scenes for FedEx family day.  Greg took him to FedEx hangar 11 & 12 for an up close and personnel look at planes, tugs, and other equipment.  Before they left the house Greg made Jacob his own ID badge.  He was sooo proud of his badge!  They had a great day together.  I had a Homemade Gourmet event so Matthew stayed with Grammy and Pappy.  Next year I hope the whole family can attend this neat event!

Pappy made Matthew a birthday banner.

Matthew's 2nd birthday wasn't what we had planned but the party turned out fabulous!  Poor little guy was sick, so we cancelled the Kindermusik party and stayed at home.  Matthew's Grandparents came over to help us celebrate.  We had a most delicious dinner, my favorite, nachos!  Pappy whipped up some homemade whip cream for the pumpkin pie.  Matthew wasn't shy about sampling his birthday cake.  Pappy bought him a small cake and Jacob and Matthew took their forks and dug in!!!  Matthew enjoyed opening presents and had a blast all night!  We were sorry that we did not get to celebrate with his little friends but he still had a wonderful birthday.
I can hardly believe my little baby is 2!  Matthew entered this world very fast, cried for the first 4 months of his little life! He is now the sweetest the little guy!  He is so full of personality.  Fear is not in his vocabulary.  The higher he can climb the better!  He LOVES his brother and wants to be just like him.  I look forward to seeing his smiling face every morning and wonder what he will find to explore today.  
Happy Birthday, Matthew!!!!
