Matthew's First Tooth

Just want to let you all know that Matthew got his first tooth today. He has been very craby and drooling more than normal and now I know why. He is also making great progress at crawling. It wont be long before I will be chasing him all over. Have a great night!!!

Happy Kids

It is so nice to see the kids having fun and smiling all the time. Ok except when they are in trouble. I have posted a few pictures of the kids smiling!!! The 3 hanging out watching TV----

Our Wonderful Family!!

Sorry there wont be any pictures this time. This post is going to be in honor of my family!! Yesterday, Mothers Day, My parents were so wonderful to Ryan and I. They could tell that Ryan and I have been a little stessed over the past few months and instead of us doing something for mom, her and dad came to our house and watched our kids for a couple of hours and they brought us dinner already made and even dessert. Then my sister Melissa brought me roses and some things for our kids. I cant thank my family enough for all of there support and love during tough times and stessful times. Ryan and I dont know what we would do without you.

Congrats to Michele and Steve on your future wedding!!! Ryan and I are honored you have asked us to be Master and Mistress of Ceremony!!! We cant wait to have another brother in the family!!!!

Happy Mothers Day to all!!!

Love you all!!!
April
