Update

I haven't really been doing a good job lately of taking pictures of Matthew and updating our blog. We have been pretty busy. Paul's sister and her family came to visit last week, and my parents came down this weekend. It was great to see everyone!I wish I had taken more pictures :( We are also in the process of a much needed remodeling of our bathroom, so our house is a complete mess! We should hopefully finish up this weekend or be close to it. Matthew had his 9 month appointment a week or so ago. He is still going great. He weighed 18 lbs and was 27 inches long and yes, he is still in the 10th percentile for both :) He is cruising everywhere and loving it. He will be walking before we know it. I start back to school in about a week and a half, so Matthew will be back to daycare soon. I think he will enjoy having babies to play with all day though.


Matthew and his cousin Whitt playing with the train. Whitt LOVES trains and Matthew kept stealing the bridge from the track. Whitt kept getting on to him :)


Matthew with his dump truck. He loves pushing it around everywhere.

4th of July

We went to Gulf Shores with the Massey family for the fourth and had a great time. We just hung out, went to the pool a little, and ate a lot :)They had a nice firework show for the fourth right outside our balcony and yes, the babies slept right through it :) The weather was nice the whole time we were there and there wasn't as much oil as I thought there would be. We didn't really go to the beach any.
They also had a petting zoo one day and all sorts of activities for kids that were a little older. It was nice to get away and relax. Paul was great about helping out and letting me enjoy our vacation. Thanks Paul and love you!

What has been going on

Sorry for not posting for a while. An update on Matthew: he is getting his 2 top teeth, still pulling up and walking around on anything he can hold on to, got tubes in his ears and is feeling much better, can self feed now, and his mom totally wears him out...see the pictures below :)
