This past weekend we went to visit Ryan's dad and mom. His dad just had quintuple bypass surgery and is out of the hospital home recovering for a few weeks. Our visit with him was great and he seemed great and in such good spirits especially despite all he has been through. I think Abby and Matthew made his weekend. It was nice and relaxing as we got to see his brother Jay too. Jay took us to his club pool too when Matthew got to swim there and below are some pictures taken that day.

Matthew is officially on the move...
FRIDAY, JUNE 18TH - Matthew started crawling!
SATURDAY, JUNE 19TH - Matthew stood up in his crib after his morning nap, he has yet to pull himself up again in his bed, but I am sure it will happen many more times again soon.
So, as you can see we had 2 BIG firsts this weekend from Matthew and he only continues to surprise us. He likes to take all the books off my book shelves which I do not mind since it is fun to watch him. He gets to Abby's water bowls and starts splashing and then of course pouring the water out onto the carpet. Then he likes to crawl to the windows and pull on the blinds, which means I just have to open the blinds.

Father's Day Weekend
Friday, we enjoyed our time at Friday's After Five and got to see Grant, Erin and Chloe who I hadn't seen in forever, so it was so nice to see them! Saturday evening we had a nice dinner gathering at Theresa and Derik's home; Matthew had fun and really enjoyed Theresa's full length mirror. Sorry T for the finger prints. Sunday, we went to the Pink Polo Match at King Family Vineyards. It was a beautiful day to be there and we ran into some people we haven't seen in forever! Hope you enjoy the photos.

Brian and Ashlie's Wedding Weekend!
Brian and Ashlie's Wedding Weekend was amazing. As Shannon said "it was a total dream wedding any girl would ever want!" It started with a Bridal luncheon on Friday which Matthew enjoyed cause he got to eat Strawberries and make a mess. Then we had the nice rehearsal dinner at the Hotel Zaza in Houston which was so beautiful. Matthew took a nap right before the dinner and was a total trooper throughout the evening. Bella and Bryn sat at our table, so Matthew was in heaven. He loves Bella and Bryn and they even fed him some of his rice cereal. Matthew gets so excited when he sees little kids. Saturday we took Matthew to the hotel pool and of course all the girls who were there just flocked to him and loved him. The wedding night, Matthew slept through the ceremony in his stroller at church and then during the reception he hung out in the kids room (which Bella and Bryn were there too). The ladies in the kids room were amazing it was a ratio of many more sitters than kids. they fed Matthew his dinner and played a little and then rocked him and walked him around in his stroller till he fell asleep. Even though he still has his serious separation anxiety he was a pretty good trooper with these ladies. We were very impressed. Matthew slept great in the hotel as he slept through the night both nights and Sunday we had a luncheon too which Matthew attended as well. At the luncheon it was a Mexican theme, so Matthew got to eat avocado (one of his favorites) and try a cheese enchilada which he loved! Well hope you enjoy the photos.
Matthew's first hop recorded by Mimi at Mimi's House...
Matthew can crawl backwards, but has not yet figured out forwards. In this video he realized he can hop forwards instead of crawling one knee at a time. It shocked us all, but of course he has not done this again since June 8th.
In this video towards the end he moved one knee forward on his belly and then gave up. He will get it soon :)
