An update

...well i'm definitely getting a good work out...(side note: After this picture was taken Hayden puked on the floor)

Matt is training for his upcoming Iron Man. Here he is preparing one of his cleansing "meals." Yes mom, i could hardly believe it myself- he really did drink that green thing

I did not even think of checking the sizes of the costumes before it was too late...i love hand me downs

This is like the definition of Hayden. You will never find him with out his little posse of animals...meal time for all!!

I am sooo lucky... I put Jake in his chair to eat and sat down to read for a few minutes. Next thing i know i woke up to Jake thinking he was the coolest kid on the block!...yes he is our little climber and yes i buckle him down now

Mug Shot!

Hayden really wanted his picture taken during Jakes little photo shoot. We love our little boys, Jamie and I are very lucky.

1 year old pictures of Jake!

...here are a few more.

Funny Story..

(this is Matt writing)....Jamie and I were playing catch with a Tennis ball in the living room. I threw one that might of bounced off the wall and hit Jamie in the back. Jamie pretended like she was hurt...Hayden, being the kind thoughtful boy that he is, ran over to his mom to ask what was wrong. She said that daddy threw the ball at me. Hayden ran over and fell on my head (I was laying on the ground) he got me in a headlock and and said...daddy time out alright. It made Jamie and I laugh. A really neat part of the story for me is....our little boy Hayden never sticks up for himself. If another child takes a toy, he just lets them have the toy or cries. I can remember specific instances where he has stood up for everyone of his family members (Jamie, Jake and myself). He is one of the most caring little boys that you can imagine.

Pillow Fight!!!!

Jake burries Hayden



One of the new things our boys absolutely love doing is playing in the pile of big pillows that we have. It is fun watching them become buddies. Doesn't Jake look good in his little muscle shirt?
