California Trip

Rob's parents flew us out to California for a couple of days. It was Rob's Grandfather's 90th birthday. Since Matthew is the only Christenson great-grandson, he is very popular with Great Grandpa Christenson. All he wanted for his birthday was to see Matthew, so we flew out to suprise him. It was so much fun to spend time with Rob's parents, grandparents, and some of his siblings. Matthew got to go to the ocean for the first time. Matthew with his Grandma Christenson.

We also went to the Redwoods and then to Sacrament for the birthday party. I don't have any good pictues of the birthday party right now, but hopefully I will get some soon. We took a 4 generation picture of Matthew, his dad, grandpa, and great grandpa Christenson

Matthew at 5 months

Well Matthew is now 5 months old! it is hard to believe how fast he has grown. A couple of weeks ago we bought him a bouncer, and he LOVES it! This little guy will spend hours just jumping up and down. Before we got the bouncer he would never bend his legs, but now he is moving all over the place.

He has also learned how to roll over. I have found him in the strangest places as he attempts to move around. He really only likes to roll one direction. I usually put him on one side of the room and let him roll across the floor until he reaches the other sie, then i turn him around and he goes back the other way.

We have also been going out to the park swings. He loves to be outside and just look around. sometimes when he is getting grumpy, i will take him outside and he is immediately happy again. He has got a little confused about the park swings though, because they don't let him bounce like his bouncer at home.

My Quilting Project

I found some material that I thought was just too much fun so I decided to make a girly quilt. i have only made the front side so far. it too me forever to make all of the squares together. i ran out material for the back so it will be comepletly different. This is what each square lookes like.
