The Matthies Family: December 2011
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 16, 2011. For the past two years my mom and Mylie have decorated a gingerbread house together. This year my mom brought over a gingerbread train to decorate. Mylie and Micah each got their own train car to decorate. Here's Mylie when she's done decorating. Here Micah is gently placing a piece of candy on his train car. Of course plenty of candy pieces made it into both Mylie and Micah's mouths. This is Micah's train car when he was all finished. This is Mylie's train car. Unfortunately I...

The Matthies Family: Our Christmas Tree
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2011/12/our-christmas-tree.html
Thursday, December 15, 2011. On December 4th, we set out to find our Christmas tree. We headed about 30 minutes away to our favorite Christmas tree farm. It was cold out, here's Mylie all bundled up. The tree directly behind Mylie is the one we took home. We usually end up with a Noble Fir, this year we ended up with a Blue Spruce. Once we found our tree, Eric went to get the saw. Our neighbor, Norma, made this hat and mittens for Mylie. Mylie loves that they match her zebra rain boots. When the music is...

The Matthies Family: May 2010
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 13, 2010. In this picture, Mylie was caught off guard, that's why there's no super cheesy smile. This picture was taken last night. Notice the dishtowel, I mean cape, around her. She was pretending to be a Wonder Pet all day. She fell asleep sitting in daddy's chair. She also fell asleep while drawing. I had to pry the pen from her grasp when I took her to bed. No, she isn't grumpy, she's just concentrating. She's looking for a stick. She loves picking dandelions. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Matthies Family: November 2010
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 23, 2010. It started snowing Sunday. Eric took this picture of us standing in the snow. You can't tell, but the snow is falling on us. Mylie was so excited, she kept saying "I wanna make a snowball." Eric and I both told her she'd have to wait until there was a bit more snow. By Monday morning, there was a bit more snow. The kids had check-ups at the doctor's office at 9am. On our way home, this is what it looked like. Some areas had been plowed, some had not. This afternoon while Micah...

The Matthies Family: Case Boy's Birthday
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2011/10/case-boys-birthday.html
Sunday, October 2, 2011. Last night the kids and I went over to Erica's house for a birthday party. Erica is Eric's sister. Her husband, Rob, and their two boys, Trevor and Cameran all have birthdays close to one another. We celebrated with pizza and various desserts. Here's a picture of Eric's Aunt Debbie and my mom at the party. Mr Micah loves Tante Erica and Uncle Rob's house. Lots of room to run and lots of people to play with. Here's TT (Tante Tiffany) and cousin Derek enjoying the food and drink.

The Matthies Family: August 2011
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 4, 2011. Weeds, Oh Deer! It' been quite warm since I last posted. Well, quite warm for us here. Those of you living elsewhere probably don't think upper 70s to low 80s is hot. We've spent a lot of time outside. This planter is one area I've tackled in the last few days. As you can see in the before picture, it was a mess. Overgrown bushes and a ton of weeds. It's amazing how quickly weeds grow. Now when you come over, I won't be completely embarrassed when you walk up to the front door.

The Matthies Family: March 2010
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 19, 2010. Where you live the fact that spring is right around the corner may not make much difference to you. For us, it's a really big deal! Trees and plants will be getting new leaves soon. Bulbs have begun to pop up. Flowers will be blooming. More birds and other wildlife will be in our yard more often. We can't wait! Micah rides along in the backpack carrier. It's a work-out. :). This elephant is one of my favorite images. And finally, a very simple ladybug. Boys like bugs, right? This ...

The Matthies Family: April 2010
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 30, 2010. This second clip is just more of the same. Micah eats and you hear Mylie gag, again. Rice cereal = one happy boy. Friday, April 23, 2010. Why do kids grow so fast? I mean, wasn't Micah just born? Let me tell you, my back can vouch for it. Neither Eric or myself were this big at this age. Is getting big too. The things she says amaze me sometimes. She is also growing up so quickly. Then they would take a break and play for a few minutes. He was smiling lots for me. It's called Litt...

The Matthies Family: March 2011
http://matthiesfamilytoo.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 10, 2011. These pictures were taken the very end of Feburary. We had very late season snow. This is after it began to melt a bit. We bundled up and played outside until they were both wet. This was the first time Micah had walked in the snow all by himself. In November when it snowed, he wasn't walking much yet. Not sure if you can tell, but this was Mylie's snow angel. She was very proud of it and insisted I take several pictures of it. Micah seemed to enjoy himself quite a bit. My mom a...
