Some Pics of Cameron

I have been so bad about blogging lately I am sorry life has been a little crazy here in the Matthews home. Cameron has been cutting teeth for the past few weeks now and he is really having a lot harder of a time with it than Ryan did. He is 4 1/2 months old and we have our two bottom front teeth.Cameron puts anything that he can into his mouthMy chubby happy babyI'm gonna eat you

You can't tell in this picture but he is trying to show you his two bottom teeth.

This is a okay I will smile mommy leave me alone face.Getting ready for his first taste of cereal not in a bottle
Found out that he would rather have his cereal in his bottle starting fruit next week
He would rather eat the washcloth anyway

Cameron loves to play in his saucer
I got it one upon a child one of our favorite places to shop

1st Day of School

Today was Ryan's first day of school. This morning Ryan was really excited to go to school I started talking to him about it yesterday telling him that he was going to school. He got up and asked for eggs and that shocked me becasue he use to like eggs but stopped so I was excited and he helped me make his breakfast.He wanted two eggs

What a good little helperThe little stinker only ate two bites. I guess its better than nothing right.Ryan was so excited to go to school he was ready to go by 11:00 he didn't need to be there until 12:45 so I thought since it was a special day that we would go to lunch to McDonald's and get him his #10. Yes he eats all 10 chicken nuggets. I decided that I was going to take him for his first day since we didn't get a chance to meet his new teacher.

Ryan is still going to EMECECE this year I think it will be his last year there and then they will figure out where he will go to kindergarden next year. I am not going to think that far yet becasue that is to crazy to think mny kid will be going to a big kid school. Anyway Ryan did really good and was excited to go to school even when we got there I thought he would start crying but no he stayed pretty happy.We got Cameron out of the car and ran up to find his class becasue we where a couple of minuets late. We found his new teacher Ms.Mary and she seems really nice. Ryan kept telling me "mommy stay here" I said I could only stay for a little while. In Ryan's classroom they have the teacher and two aids and I new his teacher from last year and one of the aid's wansn't going to be there I was just hoping that Ms. Irene was still going to be there. At first I wasn't sure becasue I didn't see her the Speech teacher was there but dealing with another little boyt that moved up from the morning class with Ryan who wasn't handling things well.

I told him to say cheese and this is what I got

So I was trying to figure out how I was going to get out of there and him not trow a fit. Then Ms. Irene came over I was so happy to see her and she was really happy to see Ryan. Ryan tried to grab on to me but he did giver her a hug and she took his hand and I told him I would see him when the bus brought him home. He said okay and never started to cry just had his sad face on. He didn't let go of Ms. Irene the entire time.Hopefully I will have a better picture after school.

Cameron is 4 months old today

I can't believe that it has already been 4 months since we have had our chunky little Cameron. In some ways it seems like he has been here forever with us in other ways it seems like we haven't ever been without him. He is having a little bit of a hard day today. He has had an ear infection and is on meds for that and then Blaine took him in today for his 4 month well visit.
Here are the Stats
Weight: 17 pounds 14 oz
Length : 27.5" long
He is off the charts for his length and in the 98% for his weight.
The Doctor said that he is the size of an average 8 month old.
Not only did he get shots the ear infection but his two bottom teeth are about to break through and he is not happy at all.
I will post more later just wanted to update you all on my huge fat baby.

My Boys

I took some cute pictures of my boys last night and this morning that I love.

Ryan is a monster he looks scary doesn't he. How could you not love this kid.

This was so funny this morning Cam got up at 6:00 to eat.He ate a couple of ounces and then fell asleep. I was so tired from the lovely thunder I just laid Cam next to me and gave him his bottle. I got up around 7:30 to take a shower and I rolled out of the two inches of room that I had and saw this. I had to get a picture because they where both out. I knew I only had one chance to get it because I knew the flash would wake up Blaine. I was so happy when it came out. It is so cute they sleep the same way. Blaine and his mini me.

My Boys

I took these pictures this morning of the boys to send to my dad because I know he has had a tuff week. I can't believe how big my babies are getting. Ryan has gymnastics on Thursday nights with some of his cousins and Grandma Matthews so Blaine and I have been trying when I don't have to teach to go out and do something even though we have to take little Cameron with us. Last night we went out to dinner at 4:30 then went over to Joann's to look at some pillows that I want to make for our living room. On our way home Blaine drove us to the cemetery to Emily's grave. We haven't been there since January. I know that's bad but towards the last part of my pregnancy I was so miserable and then after Cameron was born we have had a lot happen. I know it's no excuse especially since she is so close. WE finally made it out there and the flowers we put their in January still look great and bright I am going to get some new ones on Monday when I am at work. We where both so excited because her spot is now covered in green thick grass.
We have been putting seed down for a while now so we where really excited. I hope to have some pictures soon. Life is getting pretty back to normal. I have started working on Monday's at Ribbons and Lace in Chandler its a lot of fun. My Grandparents get the boys on Monday's so they have fun as well. I am still teaching my hair bow classes in Mesa as well so we are staying pretty busy. Hope to have some more fun pictures soon. 27 days till Ryan starts school not that I am counting or anything.

Our 4th of July

We had a pretty laid back forth this year. It was Clipper weekend for Blaine and they had some problems with getting the product here in time to verify so Blaine and I went into his office on Saturday morning to finish things up and get them ready for Monday. After working in the warehouse for a while we where pretty hot when we got home so we just tried to cool down before we headed out for a night of fun.
This is the first time this has happened. Ryan isn't a real big fan of Cameron and will never sit with anyone who is holding Cameron so I was lucky that he came and sat with me for a few minuets then I think he realized that I was also holding Cam and so he got down. Another good new moment when it comes to Ryan and Cameron if Ryan can't see Cam in the room he asks where he is and if he is in his crib sleeping a lot of times Ryan will go and check on him, and the other day Ryan actually touched Cameron's foot and said it was little. That was a huge thing for him since he freaks out anytime Cameron touches him.

Cameron at Gma & Gpa Birds house on the 4th of JulyLook at those cheeks don't you just want to eat themCameron has rolled over but then he realizes that he is on his tummy and he hates tummy time. That's funny because when Ryan was this age he would only sleep on his tummy. (ya ya I know they aren't suppose to) So now Cam just likes to get everything over but that last arm and chew on his fingers.Waiting inside for the fireworks to start

Yes he can fit his entire fist in his mouth


4th of July at the Young's
They still only mostly have girl toys as you can see but as long as it has wheels Ryan doesn't care.
Watching the fireworks from the top of the slide in there back yard.
Ryan was in the pool from about 4 in the afternoon till 10:00 at night you can tell he is starting to get a little tired.Ryan and Kaylee throwing the glow necklaces into the pool. They where board with the fireworks after five minuets.Ready to go home and go to bed

Update It's Been A While

Cameron at 3 months old

Sorry it has been so long since I have update. Life in our house got a little crazy but we are finally starting to slow down at least for us. We have finally got everything unpacked and put away in our new place. Cameron is doing much better from his hospital stay. It took him about two weeks to get back to normal. Ryan is doing great he is still going to therapy twice a week. Speech and OT we are trying to get him into Food Therapy as well but we will see if we can get that approved. Blaine has been staying pretty busy at work.(thank goodness) I feel like I am forgetting a lot but I guess I can update more later. So I guess I will just add a bunch of new pictures.

Ryan and Mommy Fishing On Our Camping Trip.

Mommy Ryan and Cameron day at Chandler mall
We went to Chandler mall a a few months ago to get out of the heat and to let Ryan play at there play area(which is not a good one by the way it's way to small) I have been trying to get Ryan to go into Build A Bear for a while and he just would not do it he was to scared. For some reason this day he decided that he wanted to go in and he picked out a turtle to make. I think the big thing was that he wanted to "wash" the turtle .
He walked around the store for about 25 minuets for him to pick out an outfit. He found a Fishing outfit that came with a fish on the pole and everything. I was just getting ready to go pay when he said "woe woe woe mommy wait just a minuet so I stopped and he went and got this shirt thing that I couldn't tell what it was and very proudly walked over to me and said this one look it's papa bird. He found a Harley Davidson shirt for his turtle. It was so dang cute. My dad has a Harley and when he comes a lot of time he brings Ryan Harley shirts and Ryan loves them. It was so cute not only was his turtle wearing Papa's shirt he also named his turtle Ryan.

Ryan ready to go home with his new turtle.
