Vvrooom!

Here’s Matthew on his 4 wheeler from Aunt P. and Uncle B.  He loves it and is surprisingly very good at steering, even in higher gears.  I guess that’s just what little boys do!

Sea World

A few weeks ago we all went to Sea World.  Fun was had by all.  It is three theme parks in one, but we enjoyed the shows the most.   The things that these intelligent creatures agree to do for their trainers are awe-inspiring!  I would also recommend checking out the acrobatic show, Viva!.  It is comedy, acrobatics, synchronized swimming, and beautiful whale and dolphin performances all rolled into one.  Here are a couple of pictures…

Costume Contest

Matthew won second place in the infant to three year old costume contest at the Pumpkin Festival yesterday.

Halloween Party

We had a great time at Matthew’s classmate Layla’s Halloween party this evening.

Guess What We Got

Friday evening we stopped into Wal-Mart to pick up a few things. (Yes, we’re old married folks. I’m sure you were partying on Friday night.) I went by the electronics department just like I’ve done at least 100 times in the last few months.

Only this time, something was different. That empty space above the price sticker for the Nintendo Wii wasn’t empty. There was a big white box there, with the word Wii on it. I stood guard while Paige went to find an employee. As he approached I said “Is that a Wii?” “Yes,” he replied.

Things get a little fuzzy at this point. I remember pointing to the box, then pointing to our shopping cart… My spirit left my body for a while, but luckily returned in time for me to swipe my debit card… Now I’m the proud owner of a shiny new Wii.

So if you happen to drive by our house and notice us jumping around the living room like crazy people, we’re probably just playing with the Wii. Come on in and join us. All we have right now is Wii Sports, but I’m sure that will change soon. Wii Play looks great, as does Mario Party 8.

Matthew’s Happy Easter

As you can see, he had the easter egg hunter all figured out this year.

The basket over flowed!

Matthew’s Super Fort

Here’s Matthew playing in his fort that we set up in the middle of the
living room.

Happy Thanksgiving

Time is still flying by. Hopefully things will slow down one of these days.

Here’s a picture of me and Matthew just about to doze off after filling up on turkey and dressing at Grandmother’s house:

Me and Matthew

It’s hard to believe that he will be two years old this time next month.

Happy Halloween

Here’s Dr. Matthew from Halloween night:

Dr. Matthew

I think he has enough candy to last until next Halloween. I’m sure I can help him eat some of it…

Weird Al

This might just be my new theme song:

That’s “White & Nerdy” by Weird Al.
