Music in the Garden

On Friday night we took friends with us to Callaway to have a picnic and hear the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra play at Robin Lake Beach. It was a beautiful night weather-wise, and the music was breathtaking. Fireworks and strawberry cupcakes {thanks, Ashley!} rounded out a fantastic evening!

7 Months!

I'm wondering where our baby went and where this big boy came from! Seriously, Matthew seems to have grown and developed so much just in the last few weeks. I think this new stage is going to be really fun!

Without further ado, his monthly lamb picture (who I've affectionately named Kabob... ha!) as well as some funny out takes. (Just discovered "Frametastic"... a fun free app!)

Half Birthday! {with out-takes}

 6 months old! What a wonderful 6 months we have had with sweet {and funny} Matthew!

With Love from Matthew

Out-takes

Matthew is 5 months old!  I posted the picture above on Facebook as part of M's "Month-birth-day" album,

but I thought these out-takes were too funny NOT to share! 

This face cracks me up!

This is what happens when your body is 25th percentile and your head is 75th :)

 

Dear Matthew

Dear Matthew,

My favorite part of each day is right after you're finished eating... you look up at me with your big, beautiful eyes and flash your toothless grin... melts my heart... six times a day!

I'm so glad God gave you to me, and me to you. You bring me much joy.

Love, Mama

Carseat Pictures

I took a few quick pictures of Matthew in his carseat the other day. I love his facial expressions. They make me smile and laugh. I'm also posting one from early November, so we can all say together "Oh my gosh, he is growing up so fast!"
