Football

Muddy, cold, but not raining - Portland kids need to take advantage of the sunshine whenever it graces us with a visit.

Spring Cleaning

Two day and three trips to Goodwill (to dump, not hunt!) later...

If you didn't see our bonus room before, this picture doesn't mean anything. To the rest of you...aren't you proud? :)

X-Ray

Last night at scouts, Matthew took on a group of 3rd graders for a game of basketball. Somewhere along the way, he fell and got stepped on. He started complaining of wrist pain and continued to mention it through this morning. Dr. Jeffreys wanted to look at it, so off to the hospital we went. 2.5 hours later, we learn that there is no break, just a bad bruise. Yeay! He can still play basketball.

Matthew was quite thrilled to get an xray (just like his big brother, he said) - he was bummed he didn't get a picture of it though.

**update: the wonderful Dr. Jeffreys DID mail him a copy of his xray!

Matthewism

As Mike was tucking Matthew in tonight, I overheard this question to him from Matthew:

"Does Mommy ever sleep? Because everytime I see her, she's awake."

I love that he thinks I can manage that. I only wish that my true mommy superpower was no need for sleep!

And with that...I'm off to bed.
