5 months old

Today our big blue eyed boy is 5 months old.

Blake was pooped after swimming

Haley had a blast

Caden looks like Daddy

Yesterday we went to the pool with Kittle and her little boy Blake.

We had a good time. I took pics of the kids.

Today we looked at a house after I did Yoga. Then Haley and Caden played on the blow up slide. Well Haley did and Caden just stood and watched.

Now Jason and I are cleaning house and chilling out at home.

Donating my Hair

For almost two years I have been growing my hair out to donate to locks of love. It has to be 10 inches long to cut.

So today was the day. I have posted before and after pictures.

Another day

I have tried two new workouts this week. Yoga/Pilates yesterday and Step/all over conditioning today! My body is sore...but I will be doing them again.

Haley, Alexis and Gabe played on the water slide today. Then Alexis and Haley spent the afternoon playing...they had so much fun!

I had a queen pizza party to attend and Jason took the kids to New Castle...they went to the kid pool and the kids castle to play. Seems like they had a good time together.

Tomorrow I am donating my hair and getting it all chopped off...I am very scared to lose all this hair. I have been growing it out for over a year now but its time to cut it! Hopefully I will like it and everyone can see a picture!

Camping Trip

Well we went on our first camping trip. It was kind of a last minute trip when we realized we had no plans for the entire weekend. So Thursday night we headed to Mounds State Park. We had some interesting experiences. We took my family's pop up camper which has been around for a long time. We went swimming two days, went to the camp store, rode bikes, took walks, played on the playground, GOT eaten up by mosquitos, and sat by the fire.

We believe Haley had her first sleep walking experience...which was weird. Thank goodness I woke up. She fell out of the bed onto the hard floor. She swam all by herself..went down the slide and the diving board by herself! We slept through a huge thunderstorm. Zoe fell out of the side of the camper.

Caden's Dedication - Camping Trip

We had Caden's dedication last night. He slept through the whole thing but our neighbor Pastor Reggie Horner from Victory Chapel came over and performed the dedication for us. We greatly appreciated his time. I have put some photos above from Caden's special Day!

We are going on a little camping trip this weekend. We actually went last night and we are staying till Sunday. It was our only weekend free to go camping and we took the Pop Up camper. I am waiting for Haley to finish her last day of bible school and then we are headed back to the campground...probably going to go swimming!

Weekend and the beginning of the week

This is a picture of Haley going down the slide by herself!

This weekend Caden and I were left alone with the dogs. Haley was with daddy and Jason went on a fishing/boating trip with friends.

Caden spend Saturday with mamaw and papaw while I did some queenly duties. Then we relaxed and didn't do much. We had dinner with mamaw, papaw and Uncle Adam --- HOBOS..mmmmm they were good.

Haley got a turtle at daddy's and went to a birthday party.

Jason caught some catfish, blue gill, and a turtle.

Haley is going to Vacation Bible School this week and is enjoying it.

I am working out and helped with the queen float tonight.

Jason made turtle stew today......ewwww I didn't eat any.

Pool Time

Haley had swim lessons all week...she went off the diving board and down the slide by herself! She is getting so brave. We are proud of her!

This a picture of Caden rolling over!

HE ROLLED OVER

Today Mr. Caden Palmer Matthews rolled over from his back to this front! YEAH!

Yesterday some man broke into my car and put daisies on my steering wheel! I love you babe! thank you

Last Couple of Days

Well hopefully we are starting a routine. I have been working out in the morning and Haley has swim lessons in the evening. Yesterday we went to the park during the day. Today the Sutton's came over and played. They had a blast!

I actually swam laps tonight while Haley did her lessons...I feel pretty good tonight!

Hmmm tomorrow...workout and we will see what else...then to swim lessons again.

A great weekend!

Friday we didn't do much but these guys enjoyed watching cartoons.

Saturday we ended up going to the Air Show with the Sutton family! We had a great time. Then we cooked out at the Sutton's house.

Sunday, Haley and I went to the PHHS graduation to see all my former 6th grade students graduate from high school. I am so proud of all of them for their huge accomplishments!

Sunday morning we were cracking up because we were all sitting around when Zoe tried to lay in Skeeter's bed...went to lay on her back and fell out not even waking up. Half her body was in the bed and half wasn't. HAHAHA.

Ears are officially pierced!

Haley woke up this morning and told us she would get her other ear pierced. She was actually excited. I had to go to school and clean up my room and hand out computer awards. Afterwards I took her. She sat and squeezed my hands and did it! She got to pick out some books at the bookstore for being so brave!

Preschool Graduation and our New baby girl

Well we had preschool graduation tonight...Haley is officially a Kindergartner now! She also got her ears pierced but only one got done b/c she cried and wouldn't let the lady get the other one done. So I guess we are going back tomorrow hopefully!

We have a new addition to our family! Our new baby girl Zoe is a boxer puppy. She is so sweet and cuddly...great with kids...loves playing with Skeeter. Skeeter is a bit jealous!
