Superheroes!

Superheroes! While we were playing cards with Kiersten this past week, Mattie, Caroline, Nicholas and Brady were supposed to be watching "Cars" downstairs. After hearing a bit too much screaming we checked it out to find, jammies had been taken off (except Brady, he couldn't unzip), capes were on and they were running around a super hero's course they had made. Too funny!

Feb Pics

Getting ready for Maui in April, Mattie got a snorkle set... he practiced one evening!


Breakfast!





Morning weekend movie...







Rachel & Asher

One of Bec's best and oldest friends... Rachel and her son Asher (four months) came to visit from North Carolina for a long weekend. It was busy, filled with late nights and was such a special treat to have them come to visit us!



Asher rolling over!!


Helping feed himself...




Mattie couldn't keep his hands (and hugs) off of Asher!


Ski Date

Up at Snoqualmie, Chris & Bec had an awesome day long date skiing! We hadn't skiied together since we've known each other and we had a BLAST. Definitely a new family hobby... Mattie's starting next fall!!





Snow!

We had a snow storm in Jan... unexpected, cold and beautiful! Here's the view from our porch... and our doggies not sure what to think! We had our first major injury with mattie this morning, stitches in his index finger. He walked upstairs and said "Mommy I need a band aid" ... little did he know he would need his entire finger stitched up and in a splint (he called it his rocket finger) for two weeks! Daddy was the super driver and drove us sliding up and down the roads to get Mattie's finger stitched up in the snow. So we didn't get to play outside in the white wonderland this year.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year 2007! Happy birthday Julie!

Trish, Brooke, Angie & Julie in front of Julie's cake (made fabulously by Brooke!)

Ryan was gracious enough to keep relighting Julie's one candle, so she could make wish, after wish...


Bella Crosby (with mom Cynthia & dad Steve) joined in the fun. Afterall the party was much more fun than bed!

Chris & Keith shortly after midnight

Just Hanging....

A lazy day with Brady while Mattie has a record long afternoon nap!



Christmas 2006!

Merry Christmas! This was such a fun Christmas, Mattie TOTALLY got it! He was excited for days for Santa to come! And then for Baby Jesus' Birthday (which meant presents!). Chris and I had fun sneaking around at night too!

Mattie loved helping our cousin Baby Gabrielle (mom Denae is pictured here too).
