Matthew's Joke

Matthew just told me a joke, "What is the oven doing in the fridge? It's in the butter!" And then he started cracking up laughing! Having a 4-year-old is fun, even if I don't get his jokes!

Kitchen Floor

I think he is a little tired!

Update

I am really bad at blogging lately! So here are some updates of what we have been up to:

In July we went to a Ahlstrom family reunion (Nate's side) in Morgan UT. It was totally beautiful up there!

Pretty, green mountains!

They had a portable audio system up there and of course Matthew was "helping" ok so he was just asking 20 questions of why and how everything worked! Poor Uncle Bruce!

Sweatshirts in July!!

Then in August we made another quick trip to Disneyland! This time Aunt Michelle and Aunt Carrie came along!

Aunt Michelle and Brayden

Aunt Carrie and Brayden (getting ice cream all over Aunt Carrie, this is how you know he loves you!)

Waiting in a long line at the end of a long, hot, muggy day. But this new ride was totally worth it! It was a Toy Story 4D ride where you get to play arcade games. Totally fun and worth the 40 minute wait! (That was about the longest line we stood in, not too bad for August at Disneyland!)

The whole crew with our favorite character, Lightening McQueen!

I think we are getting a little spoiled with our trips to Disneyland (adults included!). Gotta live it up now come April our passes expire and I think it will be time for a different, less expensive trip :)

Now we are back to normal everyday life! Matthew grows like a weed and is almost out of PJs. I had some coupons to Kohls so we went looking for PJs. Matthew loves Star Wars right now, so he insisted on getting these:

They only had 3 pairs left and the smallest pair was a size 8! He is growing like a weed but not that fast, these drown him. But he doesn't care and I am a cheap person and have a hard time paying 15 bucks for PJs so at least he will really get our moneys worth out of these for as long as he will be able to wear these!

This morning Matthew woke up at about 6 and I was tired so I laid back down for a "few minutes" when I got up again I found Matthew with make-up all over his face. When I asked him about it he told me that it was ok it was just girl stuff! He also ate a chocolate cupcake for breakfast! He is getting sneaky. Last night we were playing outside and he told me that he needed some water so I told him to go and get some. 15 minutes later I followed him inside to find him eating a chocolate cupcake, I started laughing and said "nice water break Matthew!" But he did get one out for me and for Brayden too. He figures that if he gets enough to share then it makes everything ok! One more story: I feel asleep again and woke up to find Matthew watching TV with my sewing basket in front of him. He had unloaded everything out of it. Pins and needles all over the floor and he had cut up all of my elastic into very small pieces. Oh and he had cut himself with the scissors. Yes, multiple violations of things he knows he should not be doing! I was pretty upset, hence there is no picture of this. So I sent him to timeout and then told him that he couldn't watch TV or play on my computer for the rest of the day. He then remembered that Star Wars was going to be on TV that night and he was crushed. He is getting pretty addicted to Star Wars, can you tell? Anyway, life is never dull and I am starting to worry about having 3 boys in the house, this could get pretty crazy!
