Cameron's Three Week Pics

When Ryan was a baby I got his pictures taken at Target. It was $8.99 for a package and so when we had Cameron I wanted to get his pictures done at about the same age. Ryan's were at two weeks and I was a week later with Cameron's but they got done. I tried to see if Ryan would be in some with Cameron but the little room with all the lights and stuff in it freaked Ryan out so we will have to wait on those.

Cameron Ray Matthews @ 3 Weeks

Cameron did really good he was awake for all of his where Ryan slept through his. People keep asking if Cameron looks like Ryan did Here are the pictures you decide.

Ryan Paul Matthews at 2 weeks

Back to Cameron's picturesCameron

I had a layout like this one for Ryan with the same poses Ryan's only had spots for three pictures and that is what I wanted but they got rid of that layout two weeks before I got Cameron's taken.

Ryan

Cameron is a 1 Month Old

Today our little or not so little baby is one month old. I took him for his check up and the Doctor said that he is the size of an average 2 month old.
One month stats:
Weighs 11 pounds 11 ounces
23 1/2" long so he is in the 90% for weight and off the charts for his height.

At birth was
9 pounds 2 ounces and was 22 1/2" long

We have overachievers for children.

Fishing Continued

Blaine and Ryan at it again fish #3. Too bad we don't eat themGood size fish RyanWalking back to camp Ryan liked to walk in the snow drifts. We camp on the reservation at horseshoe up by Sunrise ski resort area. They said it wouldn't have been that cold if the wind wasn't so bad. Seeing the snow in the campground really made me glad Cameron and I stayed home for this one.

Fishing

I called Blaine last night before Ryan went to bed to say goodnight. Ryan was so excited to sleep in Papa's trailer.
Ryan' s night : went to bed around 9ish after Jenny and Nate got to camp. Ry woke up a few times in the night and went right back to sleep. Blaine got woken up at 6:30 this morning to.
R: "Daddy lets go fishing"
B: "It's to early"
R: " Dad go outside"
B: " We have to get dressed first" ( thinking that Ry wouldn't want to get dressed)
R: "okay daddy lets get dressed"
That was the end of trying to go back to sleep. After they where dressed they headed down to the lake for a while then went back up for breakfast. After a few helpings of eggs and pancakes it was back down to the lake. I am very glad I didn't go right now because Blaine said that there are still a few snow drifts around the lake and the wind is really bad. Ryan has been using his little fishing pole with his plastic fish attached to it and has been doing really good casting it out and stuff. Blaine sent me this picture a few minuets ago.Blaine caught this fish and Ryan wanted to see it. He really wanted to touch it but this is as close as Blaine would let him get. So next time Blaine gets one on the line he is going to let Ryan real it in. Blaine said that after he got the fish off the hook and threw it back that Ryan pushed him out of the way and said "Move it daddy this is my spot!" They are having a blast even with all the wind.

Camping

Today I sent the boys off camping. This is the first time since Blaine and I started dating that I haven't gone with them camping. You have to understand out idea of Camping. We take my father in laws travel trailer that has heat bunk beds a queen bed and we do go fishing however none of us like fish so we catch and release. Ryan has his own fishing pole that has a fish already attached to it when he is done with that he will just start to throw rocks in the lake. After lunch we go and watch a movie in the trailer while most of us take a nap then get ready to go back out to fish for a while then we put the potatoes in the oven and get ready to eat our stake dinner Saturday night. Usually Blaine's dad and a few of his brothers go camping along with our little family. Usually I am the only girl there. This time my bro in law Nathan is married so I wouldn't of been the only one. Yes I realize that you are wondering why I wouldn't go camping since Cameron is 4 weeks old and when Ryan was 4 weeks old we took him to lake Powell for a week, well this weekend I have a YW/YM fundraiser dinner as well as having Choir practice on Sunday that I need to be at so I didn't go camping.
Blaine and Ryan drove up with his dad in his truck and picked Ryan up from school and went up north. This is the 1st picture that I got this afternoon of Ryan having fun.

New Baby in the Family

We are so excited for my sister in law Shelley and her husband Robert. They had a baby boy last night. They have been trying for a long time to get this baby and he is finally here. Cameron and his new cousin are about three weeks apart so they should be good buds. As of this post we haven't heard if he has a name yet. Shelley had a c-section last night and Baby boy Fletcher was born. Congratulations Robert and Shelley we can't wait to see him.
