The Weezle

Jamie had Matt at the store and he went nuts over this toy.  It's now one of his favorites.  It's a cat toy.  Figures.

Rocks, Sledding and "Peeza"

Matthew, Jamie and I went to Cle Elum this weekend with Grandma and GranDan for a weekend of relaxing.  Jamie, Matt and I went up early on Friday, and went to the lake to do a little rock throwing.

Check out the shades!

"Dooh!" (Throw)

Matt got to play with GranDan's trucks.  Very exciting.

Saturday morning we woke up to a really nice day, and decided to head out and find some snow, since Matt had yet to get to sled.

We found a good spot way up by the North end of the valley, by Salmon la Sac.  Matt's all about sledding now.  He took one good spill, but got right back on the sled.  "Gain!"




I have video of the spill but it's to painful to watch (mainly because the spill was my fault) but here is the aftermath.


After that we went back to the lake for a little more sledding and some rock throwing, this time with the Grandparents and Poppy.



Looks cold doesn't it?  Kid's nuts.

Before we headed home Matt got to go for a quad ride (almost fell asleep) and got introduced to the greatest of Cabin Traditions, the Lemon Cookie!
It took a bit, but he figured out that they come apart.  1 cookie becomes 2 cookies, yeah!
He didn't make it to the freeway before he passed out.  A perfect cabin weekend!

Sunday we had blueberry pancakes for breakfast.  They were very popular. The blueberries ("bloobs") that is, not the pancakes.





After breakfast we went to get some pizza and do some MORE rock throwing, and crab hunting, this time in the Sound.  Matt learned to say "peeza".  I think he finished off a whole slice.  After that we headed over to meet the newest member of the Heidergott clan, Baby Ty, who was only a day old.


Happy Birthday Ty!

Auntie's Birthday

Last weekend was Auntie Elicia's Birthday.  I'm not sure if Elicia or Matt had a better time.

Friday Jamie got some stuff from amazon that came packaged with a large piece of paper, which of course became a favorite toy for a few hours.

TOGA!

Saturday we played downstairs a bit in the morning which is still fairly cold.  Matt looked a little chilled when we got upstairs so I put my coat on him.

It was raining a little, so we put on Matt's raincoat, and he and I went exploring in the yard. He's not so sure about walking around on the uneven ground yet, but he like to go outside.

Exploring





After his Nap we headed out for some bowling.  They had a little ramp so Matt could bowl too.  If you look close at the second picture he's make the sign for "more!".

All lined up

More!

Getting tickled.

Ears!

Sunday he had a good nap, I think the day before wore him out a bit.

Sometimes it's hard to wake up.

We headed over to Grandma and GranDan's Sunday night for a party with the Chang/Dawson/Walters crew.  Matt and Felix had a good time playing together, though it got a little rough a couple of times.  The hallway sprinting game was quite popular.  The pictures are a little blurring, action shots.




Dad had to get in on the action too.


Two normal size one year olds could have shared this plane no problem.  These two?  Not so much.


We got some video from the evening too.

Later in the week Matt and Felix got to go to the park.  Jamie is fired for not taking the camera.  Apparently there was a race at one point, some entanglement, followed by blood and crying.  The aftermath-

Monday Jamie and Matt came down and met me for lunch at Mukilteo.  Matt had a lot of fun exploring the pier and throwing rocks on the beach.



Well, we're off to the cabin for a night, hopefully we'll have some good pictures and video from that as well. 

Until next time!
