Mat's alive still....and this is what else we've been doing

It's true, Mat is alive! Alive and well. His doctor did some blood tests last week and we are still waiting to hear the results, but she thinks it's the start of an ulcer. A purple pill and a small change to his diet should do the trick. Sorry Matty, no more Big Macs and Hot Mama's at the gas stations. :) Thanks for all of your concern.
Carter just finished up his 2 week swim lessons last Friday! He loved it and looked forward to going everyday. During the last week, they encouraged the kids to jump off the diving board. Carter was really brave and would do it every time. At the end of his swim lessons he informed me that he didn't have to wear a life jacket anymore because he could be a fast swimmer now. Hmmm....he has a lot more to learn before that can happen. But, it won't be long bubs.
Now we are anxiously awaiting our trip to Colorado to visit my mom and dad. Carter can hardly wait to fly in an airplane. I am soooo glad that we decided to fly instead of drive. I know, I'm a big wuss for not driving 8 hours, but a 45 minute flight sounded so much more pleasant. Plus, we got a good deal on plane tickets, so you can't argue with that!!


Hmmm...should I do it?

All I wanted to do was get ready one morning, so I just decided to let them play. They were being so good, I didn't care what they were into to. But, I did have to take some pictures of it. Carter of course thought they were band aids and he needed to put them everywhere he informed me. Fortunately, they ran out before they could do that.
