Matthew hugging his new little girlie friend in Beaver, this is Kayla! Tim & Tanji's little neice.

Standing on our new front deck.

This is hysterical!

Matthew keeps removing a knob off our kitchen cabinet.

Yesterday, I walked up and saw that it was missing AGAIN. I asked Matthew,

"What happened to the knob Matthew?"

He walked up to the cabinet door ... looking very serious... his little eyebrows went together,
and he very quietly said:

"You broke it."


I almost died laughing!!!! He's never really answered me like that before. I loved it.

Pictures I promised

Someone was having all kinds of doggy fun. *giggling* Look at that guilty face.

A Stanford sweatshirt Nurse Raji gave him. She cared for Matthew pretty much the entire time we were in the CVICU 4 yrs ago.

"Dwamma" spoiled Magoo w/an awesome Mr. Potato Head. He has TWO, yes, TWO ~ one for our house and one for her house. This child wants for nothing.

These are real fun to step on. Yup... nice. It can give ya a case of Tourette's.

Daddy and Magoo playing on his chaulk board. Matthew loves to have us draw him a Magic Bullet. Goofy kid.

Matthew suckered Daddy into taking him for a spin around the block. He is hard to resist.

Off they go! He loves this red wagon.... yes, "Dwamma" got it for him.

3 years ago since Matthews second heart surgery

Wow... we can't believe it's been 3 years now.
March 16th marks the 3rd anniversary since Matthew's second heart surgery.

We pray that his leaky valve hangs in there ... we were told at Stanford that "on average", these kids need a conduit change every three years.

We have an ECHO appointment on April 17th.

I will be posting some cute pics that I took the other day real soon.

Okay okay

I will get some pictures of Matthew up real soon.

He is so funny...

he's singing this cute little song....


moo moo buzz buzz,
pop pop klop,
cock a doodle doo doo who who
dibble dibble dop,
tick tock knock knock
boom boom SPLAT!
last a whisper whisper
and THAT IS THAT...


from Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You??
