~ Capturing the context of contentment in everyday life ~

{pretty}

I’m not sure if I’d call him “pretty” but Matthew is darn cute and he is 9 months old today! (Photo courtesy of my sister JC. 😉

{happy}

This weekend Andrew attended a birthday party that was held at a fire station. He got a kick out of the fire truck’s tires being so tall.

He was even more excited when he got a turn shooting the fire house into the street. (Free car washes for unsuspected cars driving by. LOL)

{funny}

Matthew was having fun squirming his way into the bar stool.

However, the fun ended when he couldn’t figure how to get out of there!

{real}

Back to the fire station..they were showing us how high their ladder went. One of the firefighters started climbing…

…and climbing…

…until he finally made it to the very top. I was dizzy just looking at him. Those guys are amazing!!
Lots of love to all our firefighters!! 🙂

~ Capturing the context of contentment in everyday life ~

I never got the chance to post any Christmas photos last week so I’ll do them this week. 🙂

{pretty}

My pretty Bella.

My handsome Andrew.

My sweet rascal John-Paul, ready to run.

Mama and her little Matty. (I just wish I we had a pic of Brian too but he hides from the camera.)

{happy}

Matthew admiring the wrap of his gift.

He is finally able to rip paper to his heart’s content.

Happy with his new red ball.

{funny}

Matthew is playing with a ball in the kitchen but it kept rolling away.

He was squealing with delight when he caught it.

Mr. Smiley.

{real}

The kids were excited to see that Santa ate his cookies. Matthew decided to stick around and inspect the plate longer.

“Maybe I’ll have one little nibble…”

“Oops, Mama caught me with the evidence in my mouth!”

And this is why I shouldn’t blog while the kids are awake. Just as I hit “post” I heard the back sliding door open. I checked to see what was going on. JP unlocked the door and ran out on the deck and Matthew followed him outside. They saw no harm in getting some fresh air. Thank God the deck is contained. (I love how Matthew is clapping his hands so proud of himself.)

I was going through some old photos and found this one of Andrew kissing JP when he was a baby. I think it is so sweet! 🙂

{happy}

Andrew continues as a good big brother. Here he is playing with Matthew and making him laugh.

{funny}

The other day I left Matthew on the floor in the family room to let him scoot and army crawl around. Since he just turned six months, he is slow but he has been practicing and has gotten much better over the past week. I found it funny when he crawled “for real” into the kitchen.

Although, Andrew worries about him crawling onto a hard surface so he drags him back to the middle of the room. Poor guy.

The snack thief strikes again. Last week it was a bag of baked cheetos.

This time it was a bag of candy corn. I think I need to do a better job at hiding the treats.
