If Our Journey Had Been Easy We Wouldn't Have You: 2011

HONK!!!!

If you've spent ten minutes with Matthew you know he loves the movie Cars. For Christmas he got a set of tractors and of course he has all of the Cars characters so we spent the day re-enacting the scene from the movie where Mater and McQueen scare the tractors and they fall over. Everytime the tractors would fall down he would squeal "do it again! do it again!"

He took them to nap with him and had them lay next to him on the pillow.

Lining up the tractors...they have no idea what's coming...poor innocent tractors, just workin' the fields and doing their jobs.

HONK!!!

Poor tractors...

In other news. One great thing about our development is that we can walk into town to the park, the ice cream store, the library, the ice cream store, a walking trail...the ice cream store.

Spoons are just in the way.

Ice cream cheese!

Jingle All The Way

Matthew has taken a liking to Christmas songs. In fact he sings them all day long. As the season closes and we return to regular music I thought I better catch him singing on video before he forgets.

Enjoy!

He is my one and only. We met in April of 1999, moved in together in May of 1999 and got engaged in July of 1999. Eh, it was quick but we're ten years strong so it must have been right! He's my rock and life just wouldn't be half as fun without him. He's a proud PSU grad and a huge fan of Pittsburgh sports, well except the Pirates...but really who is? He works hard so I can stay home and take care of Matthew and I am eternally grateful for that experience. And I don't think he complains much either since I even pack his lunch.

No DNA test needed here! This kid looks just like his dad. Which kind of isn't fair since I did all the work. He has been the light in our lives since the early morning hours of July 9th, 2008. I love chronicling his life in this way and reading back over all the little experiences that add up to one big adventure! His current loves are cookie monster, his stinky puppy and when mommy plays "this little piggy" with his toes. He will stop what he's doing when he hears the lottery start on tv at night and wants to be friends with the two kitties that live here too so badly that he can hardly stand it. They, however, do not feel the same way.
