Vacation!!

We had a camping vacation. Originally we intended to just go to Jetty park for a few days and then to another campground but we were having so much fun that we decided to stay for the whole time. The weather was nice most of the time and Matthew loved being on the beach and going fishing. He spent alot of time practicing his casting. He also made a new friend who was camping next to us. They played together all the time and wore each other out. We all had a wonderfully realxing time and can't wait to go back...SOON

we went fishing on the pier as much as the weather allowed


there are raccons that are on the pier every evening. One night they got brave and came too close for comfort. I think Matthew's PBJ enticed one

Computer Genius

Matthew LOVES playing on the computer. He plays games with Elmo's world and THomas and Friends and he is really good at them. He has the mouse, right click, drag and drop and all of that down pat.


He is serious about his computer (my computer)






I can occassionally get his attention for seconds at a time

Looks like someone is getting his own computer for Christmas

It was clean, don't worry

Last night Matthew decided to play with some stuffed animals. he put them on pillows and blankets and they went to sleep- if only it was that easy. Then he decided one needed a diaper. So I had to put a diaper on a turtle. This morning he decided he needed a diaper on his head. Weird kid
