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! :)

Day At Great Aunt Kathy's

We went to visit Aunt Kathy on Labor Day weekend. We walked to a playground that's just a couple of blocks from her house. I think it's safe to say that both Matthew & Connor had fun. :)

Matthew's 1st Day of Kindergarten

Matthew started kindergarten on September 10th. He loves it so far! He really likes his teacher, and he loves riding the bus. My little boy is growing up!
