we have a five year old... and a two month old!

How is it possible that Matthew is FIVE??! Yesterday I showed him his baby book as part of homeschooling, {more on that later} and I just couldn't get over how fast time has gone by since he was born. I'm also a little weirded-out that I'm actually old enough to have a five year-old :)

Matthew is such a joy... our little "gift from God"... who's sometimes a little too big for his britches! However, here are some things we enjoy most about our five year old:

1. he is an affectionate little dude
2. he could draw and color and paint forever
3. he has a fun/big imagination
4. he is great about entertaining himself
5. last but certainly not least, he is always super willing to put the pacifier in Eli's mouth when he cries :)



Now on to the littlest guy... we no longer have a newborn. It's official. Especially since he weighs more than the average two month old! But he sleeps great, eats really well, and is a great baby! He is now smiling and most recently discovered that he can actually put his hands in his mouth. Precious.



Can't do a post and leave this one out... he fell asleep watching his favorite thing in the whole wide world, Thomas the train :)
