A Year in the Life

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY ADAM!






And what a year it was! Blocked tear ducts, bronchealitis, ear infections, colds every other week (at least it seemed that way), and that crazy rare bone infection! Adam was a trooper through it all! We love you little buddy!



Check out pictures from his first birthday party, posted on our flickr page. Just click on the link in the photo albums box.

First Day of Preschool



Our first little boy is growing up! Today, another first for us: Preschool! Matthew wasn't quite sure what to make of the big day. He was quite nervous and excited over the weekend. This morning, he didn't eat much for breakfast. I think the butterflies in his stomach were really fluttering! But, when we arrived, he walked in and gave his new teacher a great big hug! The look on her face was priceless! She was surprised and touched at the same time. There were a handful of kids already there. Before you know it, he was off and playing. As much as Christie and I wanted to stay there, we knew we had to go.

We were told that Matthew played with everyone throughout the day. He was also quite fascinated with the junior size potties and wanted to go, all the time! His teacher was very pleased with his manners. I guess he would introduce himself by saying "nice to meet you?" I'm not quite sure they had the right kid?!
What a day! He made his parents very proud!

End of a Rainbow

We've all wondered what's at the end of a rainbow. The Irish say a pot of gold. Well, there must have been something wrong with this rainbow, because it ended up in the backyard, with no cash value! Oh well!
