Here ducky, ducky!

This is what we wake up too all the time! (Please excuse our dirt yard- we seeded last week and the grass is just starting to poke through!)

Then the boys woke up and Daddy thought the ducks might be hungry!

And they were!

Bicycles

Jackson has finally decided he LOVES his bicycle he got for his birthday! And yay he is really good at riding it now too! And little Mr. Matthew has taken to his "bicycle" too (Jackson's old tricycle) and he is starting to get the pedaling thing down! Luckily David figured out using the handle of a shovel as a pusher, so that our backs aren't dead from bending over when we get back from riding around the block!

It has been nice that they are enjoying this now bc the weather is getting bearable to actually play outside and we had our yard reseeded last week (yay I am seeing sprigs of grass poking through), so unfortunately the kids are having to stay off of it for a few weeks! It is just a muddy mess out there with twice a day watering! (On a side note: David killed another snake out there yesterday, so we may never play in the back yard again- grass or no grass!)


Matthew is obsessed with wearing Jackson's helmet! We do have another spiderman helmet around this house somewhere that might actually fit his head, but it seems to be MIA! ughh!


Disney on Ice: Toy Story 3

We took the boys to see Toy Story 3 and I was rather impressed! I thought they put on a great show and they kept the boys entertained for 2 hrs! The only thing is DON'T give Matthew cotton candy late at night because it turns him into a crazy little boy!


Our Little Aliens

Woody and Jesse

Buzz Lightyear himself flying through the sky!

TWO years old!

It's hard to believe that Matthew is already 2 years old! But he is and he is just as sweet as the day he was born......just a little more sass these days! We didn't really have him a big party this year, but celebrated a few little ones! We had the one with family in NC a couple weeks ago, then on his birthday day we took the boys to see Disney on Ice: Toy Story 3, and the next night we had some friends over and celebrated one more time with dinner, cupcakes and presents! I don't think he got shorted, but we hope to have a big friends party next year when he turns 3!

Here is Matthew with his beloved firetruck! (The photo is all messed up - not sure what happened)

First Day of Preschool!

My baby has officially started Preschool! Yikes this is just the beginning of school - only 18 more years really! He had a great first day learning about the letter P and making playdough! He also said they played outside, had animal crackers and apple juice for a snack, and he played with lots of new friends and a few current friends! Little brother did okay - this time he didn't cry! He and I managed a few errands before going back to get his buddy!

Jackson and Daddy before he had to head to a class!





Matthew kept saying he was ready to go to preschool too!

Alright Mom, it's time for you to go!
