Happy Birthday Matthew!! You are getting to be such a big boy and today you were so glad you were finally 4!!
Mac also learned how to swing just in time for his birthday. By 7am he was out on the play set just swinging away!!
Matthew got to open his first birthday present tonight. He got his very own mummy sleeping bag in blue....just what he really wanted! He was really anxious to go to sleep tonight so we were pretty happy about that. Joshua and him are both "camping out" in the guest room in their bags. Good Night Boys.
Brenna is starting to practice her 'walking" with Daddy.
She thought she was quite the big shot sitting all by herself up on the slide.
This is yesterday when Joshua had a 1/2 day of school so I brought all the kiddos over to our house for lunch...they were so good all lined up and ate great! It was so much fun.
Even Brenna and Sophia have been enjoying themselves being bounced around by their brothers.
Matthew was so sweet playing with Brenna and showing her how to get wet.
Here is a handsome picture of our almost 4-year old.
Brenna was thrilled to get wet and even did a good job of clapping for herself.
She then realized that she could stick her whole face in!!
We were having so much fun we called our friends over. Brenna and Sophia socialized on the little swings.....
...while Matthew and Rayhaan tried out the new Slip and Slide.
Here is an action shot of Matthew..we had such a fun afternoon.
We started another year of soccer this week. Joshua and Matthew are going to end up playing on the same team and Brett and I are so glad we will be in just 1 place at the same time! Hurrah!! Joshua just loves playing and has his uniform on every day after school, even on non-soccer days, cleats and all! This is Matthew's first year and he is doing great, he runs his little heart out at the games. Here is a picture of the first night...Matthew did not have his uniform shirt yet but was decked out in his Italy Jersey! I am thinking that the Word Cup is going to be watched quite often at our home this summer.
Happy Birthday Brenna....it is such a joy to have you in our family. We have loved our first year with you. You have brought smiles and laughter to our home. We thank God every day that you are our little girl. We will love you always!
Well, today I finally needed to grab the camera and snap some pictures because the kids have really been into dressing up. I should say they are always into dressing up. It starts about 5:45 or so in the morning and continues till night time finally rolls around!
Today it was cowboys that got things started...here is Joshua and Brenna hanging out on the stairs. Joshua had just finished riding "Chester" up to the Rockies looking for some lost cattle and Matthew was back guarding the ranch.
Josh giving his sister some kisses.
Just as I walked into Mathew's room tonight he was standing by the bed in in full Army Gear...over his dinosaur PJ's with his Fire-Fighter Oxygen Tank on his back and he looks at me and says..."Mommy, can't I just wear this to bed...I will be warm"
Joshua got to spend some time in the net..he took this task very seriously and didn't let any balls past.
