Gone Fishing



Matthew is nearing the end of preschool :(
He has had a few little field trips lately...his favorite the "Fishing trip"!!
He saved his money to buy his own fishing pole...and was sooooooooo excited to go catch some fish! He wanted to have a fish fry that night for dinner!! LOL {unfortunately he had to throw the fish back in the pond though!}.
Daddy went with Matthew and took my camera to snap a couple of pics for me! YEAH!! Matthew ended up catching 5 fish that day...and now he is hooked! {no pun intended!! hehe...}
He is just growing up so fast...learning all kinds of crazy things lately, just a few months ago he learned how to tie his own shoe laces!! I was so impressed at how fast he picked it up...Daddy showed him about 2 times how to do it and away he went. He just kept practising until he got it perfect!
Just this past week or so he has been wanting to "SNAP" his fingers...so he has been working on that! LOL Now he is snapping like a champion! He totally cracks me up. I love how interested in learning he is...and he doesn't give up until he's got it. Definitely takes after his Daddy! LOL ;)


Miss Madison is sick :(
She woke up from her nap with a fever...this evening she has been crying and shivering and is still feverish. I am not sure what is going on with her?? Maybe ear infection?? Maybe just a fluke thing. Keep her in your prayers. Poor girl.

We have also started the nursery!! FINALLY!
I am so excited...PJ and Cathy's husband Terry put the carpet down on Saturday {Thank you TERRY!!}...and since then we have moved furniture in there and today we purchased a new crib!! I HATED our old crib...it was given to us when Matthew was born and so we just used that for him and Madison...i wasn't planning on buying a new crib for our last baby but this one is a 4 in 1 crib...it converts into a toddler bed then into a full bed...and also a little bench! So i figured it would come in handy! PJ started putting it together tonight, it is so cute! i will share pics of the nursery and Maddies new big girl room when they are all done. :)

Sooo cute. But he is the oldest kid so he will be like that all his life ;)

Matthew is a great wee fisherman, can't believe he caught 5, well done Matthew.

Poor Madison though, it's not nice being sick. We will certainly be praying for her that she gets back to her wee self soon.

Can't wait to see the pics of the nursery and Madisons new room.

Take Care

Love Lindsay x
