Treg is 5!

It is still so crazy to me that Treg was born just 4 days after Matia's 2nd birthday. So in March we get a little crazy at our house. When I was pregnant with Treg I remember thinking this will never end, I am going to be pregnant FOREVER! But time did it's thing and flew by. Before I knew it my little caboose was here and letting us all know about it.

Treg has been such a delight to me. I love watching him keep up with his brother and sister. He never seemed to do the baby stuff it seemed like he just wanted to be like Bowdee and Tia so much that he didn't play with the baby things. In fact we called him our little monkey because he would climb as high as he needed to, to get what he wanted. My brother Kyle called him "Hoodeenie" because if you took your eyes off him for too long (which was about 30 seconds) he was into trouble.

I can't believe next year my little buddy will be going to kindergarten. This last year I have shared some pretty special times with Treg. Before Matia went to Kindergarten I had so many kids around all the time we hardly ever got one on one time. But Treg and I have shared some moments that I pray will last in his memory. I have loved having you home while the big kids are at school. I just hope you will remember forever how much I love you. Happy Birthday my little, big guy!

Matia's 7

Wow, where does the time go? It seems like it was just yesterday that I was in Eagle Mountain with a brand new baby girl. I remember at first being so nervous that she was a girl because after all I had a baby boy and I knew how they worked. But a girl this was all new to me and could I ever possibly love her as much as I loved Bowdee? Would I make a good mother to her?

Well time goes by, and only time can answer some of those questions. My life would simply not be complete with out my Matia. We named her Matia becuase it reminded us of a place we love to vacation in California and also because it means "Gift of God". Matia has truely been my gift from God. She lightens my heaviest of loads just with a smile.

I love the way she is so tender hearted and thinks of everyone all the time. I love how she claims she is now a tree hugger and a tomboy who doesn't like pink anymore. I love her spunk and her charm. I love that you have a mind of your own and you are not afraid to tell anyone about it. Although I am sure at times your father would love for you to keep some of your hunting point of views to yourself. I love you Matia for everything you are and everything you are teaching me to be. Your amazing in all aspects of life. Keep living with a smile in your heart and a dance in your step. Happy Birthday sweetie.
