Baby Matthew

Here in VA we're trying to get out of the habit of referring to Big Boy Matthew as "Baby Matthew."  It's tough because it feels like just yesterday he was a scrawny little baby and now he's a big boy and he's on his way to being a big brother soon :-)  Jonathan and Amanda were kind enough to deliver Granny to VA from NC and they even stayed for a couple days of fun and food.  Ava and Linc got to play with their cousin Matthew and I got some of the best laughs and hugs out of him!  He's so daggon loveable I can hardly stand it.

Here are some pictures of our adventures with Big Boy Matthew...

Granny is here!  Yay!  Ava could not wait to spend time with Granny.

Paella!
