Hello again!

Hi long lost blog!  How is it already summer?  Where did the last 2 1/2 months go?  David bought me a new tablet, so my camera and computer were forgotten for awhile.  I think I can blog from my tablet, but I store all my pics on my computer, so the blog would be kind of boring without picture updates!

Here's a quick little phone dump, and a little update on the boys.

Me and Matthew coming down the stairs after a nap.  We make this trip many times during the day, and we always stop and look in the mirror.

Aunt Susie visited us and brought some cool garage sale finds - a cool truck and a bunch of mini dinosaurs.  This was the creation they came up with:

Matthew likes to join in with his big brothers.  He's rolling over quite easily now.  But sometimes he gets stuck on his stomach, and forgets how to roll back.  So he'll get frustrated.  Luckily, with two older brothers, there is usually something entertaining going on.

Nathan wanted me to tuck him in and make him "snug-a-wee."  And he wanted his animals to peek out.  What a cutie!

Matthew was laughing at his brothers on the playground.  Just a matter of time before he's joining them!  Poor little guy has been neglected on the blog.  Gotta try to do better about updates on him.  :)

We had a lot of baby toys stored in the garage, thinking we were done with them.  But our little surprise Matthew gave us reason to keep them and bring them back out.  Of course the big boys loved playing with them.  It was like Christmas over here.

We participated in the annual Father's Day fishing tournament.  No catches again!  We must have bad Father's Day luck.  Nathan was reeling in a really big one, but it got away right before pulling it up.  Maybe we'll get lucky when Matthew participates with us next year.

Here is the video:

The boys love taking Boomer on a walk.  How cute are they holding hands?

We had Matthew's parent commitment services at church.  It's always a special time to pray for our boys and dedicate to raise them in the Lord.  Here is the picture we used:

Matthew means "gift from God."  And the verse we chose for him is "Be devoted to one another in brotherly love.  Honor one another above yourselves.  Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.  Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."  Romans 12:10-12

Here are the growing families of our wonderful friends!  We've been through lots of babies together!  It's fun to do these meaningful ceremonies together.

And we took some cute pics of the boys this weekend.  It's getting a little easier now that Matthew is more stable.
