HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT





Jonah eating cake off the kitchen floor

I told Mikelle to give me a really big smile, and this is what she did

She fell asleep like this watching tv, she rarely does this

Thanks for the presents Grandma Cheryl

Hey, so Matt has been going to orientation all this week and starts school on Monday, and today is Matt's 26th birthday.  We are having a party tonight with tacos and ice cream cake .  The kids are doing great, Mikelle has started sleeping in her "big girl bed" now.  We put her in bed and tried making her cry it out, and the next night, Matt just went in and told her he would be really proud of her if she stayed in her bed the whole night, and she has since then, who would've thought of just asking her?  Jonah is also sleeping in his crib, so for the first time ever, they are sleeping the whole night through in the same room, it's a miracle.  We are trying to keep busy, and the kids seem to like it here. Here are some recent pictures of what we have been up to.

Mikelle is being so funny! I love the videos. I also think the big smile photo is nice... or a bit scary ;) I miss you guys! Happy Birthday Matt!

So cute. I'm glad things are working out in Colorado. It's not always so fun to be the wife of a student. Only 3 more years. Love ya all.
