Ava + Jacob: Preparing for a very special day...



Way back when,
oh, about eight years ago,
Jessica, my sister-in-law, and I
were waddling around with swollen bellies.

She was due, lucky duck, two weeks prior to me, in July. 

I was due in August.

Rats.

As luck would have it...
our babies flip-flopped on us!

Ava came on July 23rd-two whole weeks early,
while Jacob lingered until August 4th!

Jessica got the short-end on that deal,
but if you're priveledged to know Jacob,
he was certainly worth the wait!

And we,
of course,
were super-blessed to get our Ava a bit early!

Fast-forward eight years...

Jessica and I aren't quite so swollen,
our babies, are not quite babies anymore,
and they've grown up together and become great friends.

One of the great blessings of sharing a birthday
so close to one another,
and of living so close together,
is the opportunity for Ava and Jacob
to be baptized together.

We couldn't be happier in planning
this special day!
