Matthew turns 2!!!

My little baby is no longer a baby! He is a toddling 2 year old boy now! We decided not to have a big party this year like we did for Matty's 1st birthday. Melissa goes a little crazy when there are a bunch of people around the house, the dogs go crazy, Matthew gets crabby....sooo...we decided to leave the big parties for when Matthew gets older. Matthew didnt really have a "party" at all. We just spent the day at the house and if family wanted to come visit if they had a gift for Matty, then we let them come over for a little while. It was a low-key but fun day. Matthew was a little crabby because he doesnt like to share. Cousin Danielle wanted to play with Matty's toys but Matty was none too thrilled with that! Still Matthew loved his gifts, he got mostly Thomas The Train and Winnie The Pooh things and, as always, his Nana & Papa Airdo spoiled him! Matthew wants to thank all who remembered him on his special day! (Thanks to: Nana & Papa Airdo, Auntie Becky, Auntie Stephie, Uncle John & cousin Danielle, Great Auntie Phil and Great Uncle Rusty, Great Gramma & Grampa Airdo, The Yerkovich Family, The Bullock Family, and Great Gammi & Coppi).

Matthew's THIRD Easter!!!

Well, I cannot believe it, but Matthew's third Easter has already come and passed! We spent the day at Stephanie & John's house with Matthew's cousin, Danielle. Auntie Stephie made the day a very special one for Matthew and Danielle. When we first got to Stephanie's house there was a beautiful Easter basket waiting for Matthew over there that Steph & John put together for him! WOW! Then there was an Easter Egg Hunt in Steph's backyard! Matthew & Danielle had lots of fun playing in the backyard and with all of Danielle's toys. Stephanie made a delicious ham dinner! What a great day!!!
