Father's Day

The week before Father's Day, my dad and stepmother came through town for a visit with me and the boys. It was a much needed visit for all of us. It gave me a bit of Matt & Mommy playtime and also gave me some relief while Jonathan began a monster teething week. No teeth poking through yet, but he seems to be drooling like crazy and chewing on anything he can get a hold of these days!

Grandpa and Matt took a rest break from the playground for refreshments.


Matt gave Grandpa his Father's Day present.


Matt's not so cooperative with group shots these days. He was running around the yard. I bet you can't figure out where he was running (just look at Jonathan).


I stole Jonathan's attention for this picture.


Matt stayed in the general vicinity for this one, but didn't look happy about it.


I tried again, but still no smile.


Granny chased Matt around the bases after he hit the ball right to her. His love of playing baseball is growing everyday and he now understands running bases.


Matt turned the tables and chased Grandpa around the bases this time.


Matt just runs around with a smile on his face when he plays outside. It's priceless!


Despite Jonathan's baby acne breakout and scratched up face (from his fingernails I can never keep trimmed enough), this is one of my favorite pictures. It just shows the love and enjoyment our two boys have when they are together. Matt's favorite thing to do these days is make Jonathan laugh. It is so much fun to hear them laughing together in the car on our way to and from work. There's not much better than the sound of your children's laughter!
