#10

Well Bosley Great Grandchild #10 came down to visit in Shen and Madison, Jax and I got to go down and visit him yesterday and take some pictures. He is 6 weeks old now and SOOOOO BIG! He was absolutely adorable and perfect for the camera! (the pressures on now for little MMB...) We had a great time getting to see all the Grandmas and Bert and Tia.

Falcon's Party

Kobe had his Post Season Football Party at Vala's on Sunday - they all had so much fun! Kobe was pretty fired up about getting a trophy!

Hazing...

It's the cruel Bosley form of initiation...

Some Big Shoes to Fill...

Maddie started walking and is EVERYWHERE now - it's probably the cutest thing I have ever seen!
Kobe was off school all week and so today he had a bunch of friends over to play all day - it was pretty fun - and they all even included Madison and Jackson! :) Matt and I even got to go out on a date tonight - and yes - judging by the fact that I am writing this at 10:15 at night - we (Matt) are lame and got home really really early. One of these days I will get some pics of the house and post them.

Macho Macho Men...

Well we finally moved into our new home - and we couldn't be any happier. The babies both adjusted perfectly and Kobe is just loving his new bed and room. We've had tons of help from family and friends whether it was doing the heavy lifting or helping out with the babies or lending us trucks and trailers to move with or bringing us food!! - we appreciated it all SO very much. It has been so great having everyone stop by too - so please come visit whenever you would like! The kids have been "helping" Boppa with everything - and Matt's family came up to help on Saturday - I think we wore Uncle Nick out!! Thanks again to everyone for helping us get settled into our new house! It really does feel like home here!

Painting Pumpkins

We went to Nana & Boppa's house tonight and painted pumpkins in their backyard - Madison and Kobe had an absolute blast! It was by far the most fun I have had with them in a long time - they were adorable! Madison also decided it would be fun to paint her big brother's face! We are so lucky to have Nana and Boppa who let us do such crazy things and make such messes at their house! Nana's clean white tub was a nice shade of purple when we left!

Madison can walk!!!

Madison took her 1st steps all by herself tonight! We are so proud of her!!! I think it was getting to see her idol Erin earlier tonight that pushed her to finally do it.

Congrats to Matt!

I am sure that some of you have momentarily forgotten about our 5th family member - Mr. Matthew - as he doesn't usually make "the blog news..." - but I did want to let those of you who hadn't heard know that he left Wells, Friday was his last day - and he is starting with American Fidelity tomorrow. We are SOO excited and so proud of him and so happy for him - i think it is going to be a great opportunity and definitely a step in a better direction and we know he will be awesome at it. The crazy part is that he will also office out of our home - so we will now both be working from home - although Matt will be out working with customers and getting new business the majority of the time. So now we are even more thankful for the loft/office that we put on - without it trying to work from home with 3 kids could be quite a challenge!

Saving Money...

Matt and I are trying to cut costs so we just decided that Kobe and I will start sharing clothes now... haha... I took pictures for my parents today for their Christmas cards - Matt brought Kobe out there and I called and told Kobe what clothes to bring. He mistakingly grabbed my jeans instead of his own - i am not sure who was more embarassed - him or I.

Kobe

I have been informed that I have been slacking on the "Kobe photos" on my blog - so here is hoping to make up for that...
Yesterday he had another football game (check out those STUDLY coaches!) - despite the cold they played really well - it's getting so much more fun to watch them. Grandma Barbie and Gama even came up and watched him play yesterday and then today they came and watched Madison and Jackson so that I could go on Kobe's field trip to Fontanelle Forest with him. Kobe and I had a great time - and the babies had a blast with their grandmas. Perhaps a little too much fun - Madison was so tired she konked out at dinner time!
