Matthew's 5th Birthday!!!!

Matthew's build a bear spiderman. He really wanted this!!
He was excited for his new church shoes. Thanks Grandma.
Another fun gift from another fun Grandma!!
It looks to me like Matthew has Marcus in Ninja training. Matt is a little more into it than Marcus I think.
Mary and her best friend Halle. They run and throw their arms around eachother every time they see eachother.
Our wonderful neighbor Jaime and her adorable little boy Gabe taking Mary and Matt on a walk.

I am so blessed to have my sweet, sensitive, cuddly, funny, happy, attentive Matthew. He lets me know when I need to put on makeup and if i have enough eye shadow on. He is gentle and loves to be held. He has really discovered what it is to be a boy this last year. He is in to all things boy... Superheros, swords, ninjas, cars etc. He is also incredibly smart and doing very well in Pre Kindergarten. He loves to play outside and with friends. He has graduated himself from naps most days and only every few days does he gladly go up stairs and go to sleep after lunch. His favorite food is Macaroni and Cheese. He wants it every meal, except for his birthday breakfast which he wanted homemade cinnamon rolls. He loves to be just like Morgan, I rolled up his church shirt sleeves and he said "Do it just like Dad's" then he wanted to play house so he could pretend to be like Mo. He recently got a pink polo shirt just like Morgan's and they have to wear it on the same day! He keeps things lively and fun here and we all adore him. He still has a small heart murmur but that doesn't hold him back. I told him about that the other day and the next day when he didn't get what he wanted he told me his hole in his heart is tearing and breaking. I gave in of course, how do you stay firm against that? We love you Matt!!!
