The times... they are a-changin'

Well - it has been awhile since my last post... that is for sure. Good news is, I have some new pictures. They are inserted below.

The first quarter of 2008 is now gone and I'm not sure where it went. We have been busy this month, too. So I'm guessing second quarter is going to go just as fast.

Last week Matthew went to kindergarten round-up. He did well on the test, and is willing to consider a new school because they do have a "play-place." At first he was refusing to go because he liked his school now (which he only goes to every so often). And of course he didn't want to grow up and go to a new school.

Last weekend we went to the circus with friends. I say it is more fun when you are a kid to watch what happens... but I did enjoy watching the kids watch the circus. The mesmerized looks on their faces is something that is rarely seen. I've not known Matthew to sit still for so long since we saw the movie Ratatouille in the theater.

Just a few days ago I took my first vacation since having Matthew 5+ years ago. Ahh... still relaxed from it all. It was nice to get away. And the weather has been very nice - so I was able to get some early Spring-time sun, too!

I think that is all the more my brain is willing to dump today. Here are the pictures that I promised...
Matthew made me a castle with nice monsters to keep me safe from any bad monsters that might want to attack.






Here he is working with left over pie dough from the Blueberry Pie I made for Dad's birthday (yes - his birthday was months ago... but he wasn't ready for the pie until a week and a half ago)






This is his new haircut (just done last night - courtesy of Dad)!!
