Saturday Shots

Here are some shots from this morning. The boys are getting excited for Easter...Matty keeps telling me that the Easter bunny is coming to town!


























































Here are some shots of Zach wearing Jeremy's college t-shirt...one will be sent into the alumni magazine for the baby page. Matty also wore this shirt 2 years ago (he's in the blue shorts).

Busy Busy

Jeremy has been in Canada this week, so the boys were stuck with me! Things have been good, except that Zach has had some reflux issues during the night. I just spoke with his doctor, and she sent a Zantac prescription in. Maybe this will help the little guy sleep better! (fingers crossed).















Here's a funny picture...I found Matty sitting in Zach's bouncy seat...well, it WAS his first :)

Slideshow

Here is a short slideshow showing some more pics from Zach's photo shoot. I don't know how I'm going to choose which ones to order! http://video214.com/play/Nsj2CJJaleMMiMD2G3YXlg/s/dark

Week in Review

We have had a pretty busy week. We went to one of our favorite places, the farm. Matty was enamored with the windchimes and Zach tried his very first drink through a straw!


















We played in the yard.














And Ashlei brought over a mix for us to make homemade sidewalk chalk!

Say Cheese

The boys had a photo shoot today at Kay's house. Kay took Matty's pics when he was about Zach's age, so I thought that it would be a good idea to have some professional shots of Zach taken now. We got to her house, went through the kitchen and then up to the photo room. Somewhere along the way, Matty freaked out and began screaming that he wanted to go back downstairs. I soon realized that we had passed a carpet cleaning machine (he used to be afraid of the one in our basement), and he was terrified. Luckily, my Mom was there and took him back downstairs while Zach had some pics taken. He did such a great job! Here are just a few: We then tried to take some pics downstairs, and Matty just wasn't into it. He wouldn't even sit on this cute little black and yellow couch. A few pics were taken of him in the front yard on the way out to the car, but he refused to smile in any of them. Oh well, at least little Zach behaved for most of the time...can't believe that he turned 7 months old today! Here are a few shots I took once we got home. They have these cute new yellow polo shirts, and it's a shame that Matty wouldn't pose next to his brother at her house. My pics are ok, I guess...

The Farm

The farmstead opened on April 1st, so we were there soon after! Matty met his friends Jameson and Melanie there for a picnic and lots of fun yesterday. They enjoyed the little red caboose, the chicken house, the cows, goats, and of course the windmills!

Hair Cut

I took Matty to get his hair cut today. He chose the purple jeep to sit in, and for the first time, I didn't have to hold him while his hair was getting cut...what a brave boy! He did a great job.

March of Dimes

We will be attending our 2nd March for Babies walk on May 1st. We are so excited to raise money once again for the March of Dimes. So many preemies just like Matty are here today because of the efforts of the MoD, so we really appreciate donations for this wonderful cause. Here are some pics of Matty while in the NICU (on a vent, a CPAP, and high-flow oxygen) as well as a pic of us from last year's walk. We will be forever grateful to the MoD, and of course all of Matty's nurses and doctors! If you would like to donate, our team page is: http://www.marchforbabies.org/personal_page.asp?pp=3313387&ct=4&w=4762845&u=sherman2010
