1st Father's Day

I know I'm a little late in posting good thing June is not over yet so I am not extremely late! David celebrated his 1st Father's Day partly at home and the rest at work! We woke up late for church so we stayed home and opened his gifts. He got a new pair of shorts, shirts, flip flops and a new wallet! Then he went to work. Mattie and I met him at my mom's house after work to see Star Trek which he had been wanting to see for a while! So mom stayed with Mattie and we both went to the movies. We had a good time and he enjoyed the movie very much! When we picked up Matthew he opened Mom's gift to him which was 2 dress shirts and ties. He wanted to wear them the next day but being that I was overly tired from the day's event I went to bed instead and ironed the shirts another day! So overall Father's Day was good but hopefully next year he will have the day off!

Doctor's Visit Stats

Yes I am posting again... I forgot to post Matthew's stats.. He now weighs 11lbs, 3oz and is 23 inches long! He is doing great and growing the way he should!

1 month old already??

I can't believe our boy is one month old.. it seems like just a few weeks ago we were in the hospital welcoming him into our world. I am posting some photos of Matthew from the past month.. he is getting so big. He is starting to laugh out loud. He likes being on his tummy and playing with daddy. He recognizes people now and follows us with his eyes.. its really neat seeing him grow up. He sits on his swing without crying and likes to be read to. He really likes to be sung to!He still is not sleeping through the night but he is sleeping. He sometimes has 4 hour stretches which I thank GOD for since I get to rest. He is also starting to drink 5 ounces of formula. Today we went to the doctor's for his month appointment and he got his first shots since being out of the hospital. I gotta say he did really good. He cried for a bit and then calmed down. Of course David had to hold him down.. I totally do not do needles and I was already feeling horrible that he had to get hurt. But he was a trooper! Now he is sleeping it all off...hopefully he will sleep tonight!

In other news.. we finally found someone that will take care of him while I am at work.. she is really nice. She keeps 4 other kids and 2 of her own. Matthew will be the youngest one. We feel very comfortable with her so we are very happy that he will not be in daycare.

Summer is finally here and although I haven't been at work since Spring Break I am glad school is done with. I actually went today to get the rest of my stuff. I am finally returning to Kindergarten and I will be going to a different school. Actually I will be returning to the school I started in as an assistant. I am really looking forward to returning. I know things will be different at this school but I guess
I'll get used to it. At least I will be teaching what I love!
