Valentine's!!

We had a great Valentine's Day! We were spoiled by our parents and grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa B gave us frosted cookies, frosted fortune cookies and divinity. My parents gave us Reese's, treats, and a really cute heart shaped plate. Grandma and Grandpa S gave us a card and moola. Matthew was spoiled with treats and a little book from my parents. Grandma and Grandpa S gave him a fun book and card, he loves cards for some reason. We gave him a balloon and little M&M fan. Devon got me new snow pants and I got him ice cream and something for his bike. Valentine's night we got pizza and had sparkling cider. We went out to dinner Tuesday cause we figured it would be less crowded. So much fun!

Loving the outdoors!

Matthew loves to be outside. He follows Devon around when he's shoveling, toddles around and giggles, tries to run with his cousins, etc. I just bought him a shovel his size so he can help his daddy. :)  Here are a few pics of him enjoying the outdoors!

Moose jammies

My grandma always gets Matthew cute little outfits with moose on them to wear to the cabin. I found these jammies for 4 bucks! They are so cute, fitting for the cabin and so comfy! They reminded me of my grandma. :) Matthew didn't end up wearing them at the cabin, but I'm sure he'll have other opportunities.

Snow Shoeing

We went to my grandpa's cabin this weekend. We had to snowshoe in and snowshoe part of the way out. We had a lot of fun. Our friends, Matt and Camille came too. We played games, ate, read, I did a puzzle and I also snowboarded a bit. The first night we had the stoked the fire too much, it was hot! We did better the next night. The boys shot their guns, it was Devon's first time trying his new gun. Dev took Matthew on the sled. We all had fun playing in the snow. I was so excited to snowboard. It was nice to board again, it's been years since I last did it. Matthew was so good. He was good in the sled and he was very happy and had so much fun at the cabin. All in all, it was such a nice weekend to enjoy the outdoors and relax in the cabin.

15 Months

My little boy had his fifteen month check up yesterday. He weighs 22 pounds(25th percentile) and is 32 inches tall(80th percentile). He is healthy and happy. He is so much fun right now. Matthew loves to play and laugh. We love having our sweet boy :)

Journal

So instead of writing in my journal, I'm going to type it on the computer and put exerpts(umm can't think of spelling right now) on my blog so I'm not doing double duty. (okay not that I've been writing lately anyway) Here we go, a little catching up: Oh my, Matthew is at such a fun age! He is walking/running all over, giggly, troublesome, and cute! We love him so much. Last night for New Year’s Eve we were pretty boring and just stayed at home. We watched a few episodes of Psych, watched The Lovely Bones(weird movie) and played Rummikub. It was actually fun just being home and being together. We had a great Christmas, Devon got a Sig Sauer 9 mm for his birthday/Christmas/Father’s Day, etc present. I got a straightener, Itunes gift card, shirt and my favorite perfume, Heavenly. Matthew got a cute little play laptop, a jeep to ride on, a book and a few other odds and ends. Grandparents and parents spoiled us with clothes, gift cards, etc. The baby got tons of fun toys. He also got a Deron Williams jersey. We are very blessed. I am pretty sure I’ve written since this, but we are now in our new home. We LOVE it! Devon is constantly working on things in the house and outside. He loves having a garage. We went out with some friends (Rachel and Josh Ball, Britt and Tyler Cornia) for lunch yesterday to Olive Garden. It was fun, we hadn’t seen them in awhile. I am teaching at a new gym now that is very close to my house. It’s called Academy West, I’m really excited to teach there. I still coach at Gymcats sometimes, but it is much further away. Oh and fun! My mom and I went to get my nails done as a Christmas present to me :)

24th of July

We wanted to do something fun on the 24th of July. We were going to go to Liberty Park to see the fireworks, but there were expected to be close to 50000 people and that didn't interest us. We looked up events going on and ended up going to Butlerville days. What in the world is Butlerville days!?! It ended up being way fun. It was in Cottonwood Heights. They had all sorts of activities, balloon animals, face painting, fireworks, etc. We had Matthew's face painted, mostly so I could take his picture :) We met up with our friends, Lars and Jen and their little girls. Matthew and Taylee had fun wrestling. We watched the fireworks and they were awesome. It was a good show and really long too. Here's some pics to enjoy! Happy Pioneer Day!
