My Hubby

One of the days that has long past since my last post is father's day. So instead of doing a father's day blog in July I thought instead I would write a post on my Hubby and what an amazing man he is. (also I never posted one his b-day!! Happy Belate B-day post!)

From the first time I met Matt, I knew I was going to marry him. There was something about him that struck me, his rugged look, sweet nature, his self assurance?!? Amazingly this was our Junior year in high school, 10 years ago. Four years later we did get married and I have never regretted a day since. Yes he can be annoying with all this political discussions, and his extrovertness but he really is a catch. Every day he amazes me more and more. He continues to excel at work were he is helping to building a new company that he will be running in a few more years. Yet he still makes sure that he has time for his family. (Yes he has been know to disappear in to the office for couple of weeks but he always comes back!) He adores his children and spends that special dad time catching fish and doing yucky things mommy can't stand. He has strong faith and morals. He values family. He agreed to buy a house with my parents and my grandfather!! (yes he agreed to live under the same roof as his in-laws). While on in-laws he manged to give me the best possible in-laws anyone could ask for! And yes he will wear green striped pajamas so his wife can get the Christmas family photo she wants!! I could really go on and on.

For fathers day this year we went to church and the over to his mom's house for brunch with is Granddad and family. Then of course he had to have a cigar and relax on the deck. Hopefully he felt celebrated and knows how lucky our children our to have him for a daddy. On the subjects of dads I also must say how lucky my husband was to have such good role models, Bompus (his granddad), Tony (Uncle/Dad) and of course (even though she is a girl) we can not forget Betsy (Mom/Aunt). Matt is also a very passionate man and has been passionate about his country for years so for Father's Day I made him a quilt with 20 different patriotic fabrics and a jean backing! He seemed to really love.



So here is to my husband. The love of my life, the father of my kids, and pretty much the perfect man! I love you Matt!

Enjoy the video:

Busy

I have been meaning to post about all our different activities over the past couple weeks but life has just been to busy. We had father's day, kindergarten graduation, Primuslabs.com company Bar-b-que and Robob's (my grandfathers) 80th birthday. To top all of that off we also had a heat wave (112 degrees for two days) which of course makes you not want to accomplish a thing. I plan to update more with pictures and stories as soon as I have a free moment. Maybe this evening. Until then don't give up hope one day there will be new pictures!

Wednessday Updates

Last Wednesday we had the pleasure of having Matteo's little friend Henry here for a good part of the day. Henry is the little boy of our friends Andy and Jeannet and he will be one June 26th (I believe or sometime close to that). Their daycare lady had to be out of town so we were lucky enough to get to watch the little guy. Of course I have been meaning to write about Matteo's first official play date but alas it is a week late. We had a great time with Henry, he is a sweet little boy. He went along with us to stroller strides and took his morning nap as we walked around! What a good boy. Then we all had a little picnic at the park with our other friends from the park. Matteo loved to watch Henry crawling around and Henry seemed to enjoy the other big kids. After that we headed home and everyone played around the house. We also finished off our lunches that we didn't eat at the park because everyone was still a little hungry. Henry is welcome anytime our house! Here are a few pictures from our day.

The boys finishing lunch up!

Henry really loved our bucket of balls he probably played with these for a good 2omin!


Henry and Matteo. I tried my hardest to get both of their attention but it proved to difficult!

The other news for this Wednesday is Matteo stats! Matteo went to the doctor today and he is weighing in at 17lbs 12oz and is 27inch long. That puts him 50% weight and almost 60% height. The doctor said he looks great and to worry that he just learned to roll over this week!! He is right on track for Matteo. (I am not allowed to compare him to his sister or the other little girls in our playgroup!!). So that wraps it up for this post. Our next doctor appointment will be fun because we are taking all 3 kids in at the same time. Sam is due for his 6yr check up, Serafina her 3yr check up, and Matteo his 9month check-up. Dr. Thompson said will processes them all at once so I don't have to make three separate trips. Should be exciting!! Stay tuned the appointment is in September!

The Mom Song

My dad found this on YouTube awhile back and I thought it was hilarious. This evening we were talking about it again and I thought I should share it with all of you! Hope you enjoy.
