Demiah Marie


Demiah Marie was born on Tuesday, October 20th. I am Demiah's Great-Great-Aunt. How many 33-year-olds can say that?!?!? Anyway, Matthew & I went to see her in the hospital the day after she was born. Isn't she just a doll? I think I'm going to like having a new baby girl in the family to spoil. :)

Matthew's Kindergarten Picture

Just look at that smile - doesn't he look happy to be a kindergartner? He looks so grown up. We had parent-teacher conferences last week, and his teacher says he's doing very well. The kids took a quiz before conferences, and Matthew was the only one in the class to identify all of his letters & shapes correctly. :) What a smart boy!

Birthday Presents





Here is a sampling of the gifts Matthew received at his birthday party. Even Connor got into the action. :) Matthew's birthday present from Mommy & Daddy was a brand new bicycle, which he got back in May. He insisted on riding his old bike for most of this past summer, but hopefully he will ride his new one more next year.

Matthew's 6th Birthday Party


Here are a couple of pictures of Matthew with his birthday cake. Yes, I know I'm a bit behind, but at least I'm managing to get them posted before my birthday! :)
