Mirror mirror on the wall

"Mirror, mirror on the wall - Who's the cutest baby of them all?" Matthew, Of course!

This week he found himself in the mirror. It was so cute.




"Hi Mama, What are you doing in the mirror?"

He lives in his exersaucer on the weekends. Thanks to Taylor & Kristy for letting us borrow it.
I see you!

Autumn at the Arboretum

We went to the Dallas Arboretum the previous weekend and enjoyed the temperate weather. They had a pumpkin patch, beautiful flowers, and a sailboat race at White Rock Lake with a three-piece band playing the Charlie Brown theme song in the background. Matthew was adorable in his costume as a little lion cub.

Mama loves this little lion cub!

He is daddy's boy- they act just alike!


Matthew fell asleep in the stroller. This is probably the second time we actually used the stroller because he refused it for so long. The sailboats in the background were fun to watch.

Maui


We went to Maui for a week of vacation and loved it. Matthew enjoyed all the mommy and daddy time. He is becoming more observant of his surroundings; he saw birds, chickens, and fish for the first time. We took this picture at the Old Lahaina Luau. Matthew feel asleep during the luau and then we woke up to hula dancers and fire. He had the biggest eyes you have ever seen.

He had a little tugboat that we pushed around in the pool.

The beach was so relaxing


Matthew's second time in the Pacific ocean. The first was in CA. He was a little scared of the waves but he liked the sand.



What a beautiful sunset!


We hiked over to this waterfall. Keep in mind that we were wearing flip flops and carrying a baby.


Andy calls this picture "sea side dining". I am feeding Matthew here and we are sitting on a rock with a gorgeous view.


A black sand beach in Hana - too cold to get in the water

Tummy time at the hotel


Cool dudes at Cheeseburger in Paradise

Eventhough my head is cut off in this picture, I still think it is a good picture of Matthew


See the fish.

I went to the spa and when I came back, I found Matthew sleeping just like this. He was so cute.

"I went to Hawaii and all I got was this lousy Hawaiian shirt"
