Day 148/365 ~ 2012

9th birthday-7

Matthew is 9!!

9th birthday-8

9th birthday-9

His last year as a "single digit."  Sigh.

9th birthday-5

I'd like to stick my toe out and trip the passage of time.  I could sit right here and enjoy my Matthew ~ who is not quite a little boy and not quite a teenager either ~ for quite some time.  He is nine years worth of sweetness, with just a touch of "I know everything because I'm 9".

Nana left in the morning after gift opening.

9th birthday-2

Matthew definitely looks like a "tweener" with his new ipod. Preloaded with music ranging from the Muppets, to Vacation Bible School songs, to some classic rock of Dan's selection.

9th birthday

We always do a family activity to celebrate birthdays (the friend party is next weekend) ~ Mathew's choice: Miniature golf!  (Love Kaitlin's frowny face!) :)

9th birthday-3

Brandi joined us for dinner at Red Robin and then cupcakes (Matthew's choice: Oreo!) at home for dessert!


9th birthday-6

Happy Birthday, Matthew!!!
You are such a joy & we love you soooo much!!!

  1. This is such a sweet age but the twinkle of being a "big boy" in the eye. The family celebration looks like such fun only to be followed up by those cute and yummy cupcake! :)
