Busy Busy Busy

So it has been awhile since I have written. Sometimes it is hard for me to get motivated to write since I always want to post so many pictures and that can be a little time consuming. I don't know what it is but maybe our Internet connection is slow??? Hmmmm. So last weekend was a packed weekend. We hung out with some friends on Friday and just had a low key night playing games and talking. Then on Saturday Matthew's cousin and husband were visiting from AZ and we got to meet their 3 week old baby Riley Robert. He was soooo tiny (he was currently 6 pounds when we saw him, Cayden was never that small so it was crazy to hold such a little baby). We decided to take them to the Griffith Observatory and it was pretty cool. It was neat to walk around and "weigh" yourself on other planets. Let's just say that I liked what I weighed on some planets more than others.

From there we went down to Hollywood and walked around where the "stars" were (on the ground). And no Katie unfortunately we did not get bombarded by the stars while we were down there :)! I guess that we were missing Kyle and Schur for that to happen :). Sorry for everyone who has never heard the story but let's just say that a few years ago Matthew and two of his friends were hanging out down in Hollywood and thought that they were bombarded by stars . . . ask me about it sometime it was pretty comical.

So we had a very busy day and even had time to take a few "cousin" pictures at the end. It was tough to keep both babies posed long enough especially our energetic little boy but we got a few good shots.

This past week was filled with trips to Gymboree with Cayden, hanging out with some friends, and trying out another mom's group. I decided that I was not going to continue to go to MOPS at my church because it is pretty far away and I really wanted to connect with moms in my area. So my friend Janna knew of a moms program at her church that she said I should try out (GUM-"Growing Up Moms") and so I went on Thursday and really enjoyed it! So we will see how that goes.

Matthew's week went well. He is really enjoying his internship. He is doing therapy with a number of clients and really feels like this is what he is supposed to be doing!!! It is so neat to see how God showed him the path he needed to take. It is so true that our ways our not always God's ways but His ways are always the best ways!! This is something I still continue to learn even when times get tough. So this weekend has been a little more relaxed which Matthew needed. We did manage to go to our first APU football game with Janna and Troy and then had a good time just hanging out with them. Tonight we start Bible Study again and Cayden will be babysat by good old Uncle Brett. So it will be a welcome break for me!!
