1. Getting My House Cleaned by Renata - In my last blog I wrote all about the happiness I experience when Renata comes to my house and clean. Walking into my house after it has been deep cleaned once a month brings a twinkle of joy to my life. It truly is some of the best money I spend all month (after groceries). Getting my house completely clean once a month makes me feel like I have accomplished something big. Today she came and it looks and smells wonderful! I know - I am spoiled :) I get it from my mother-in-law.

2. Seattle Aquarium - With Tom having this week off we went to the Aquarium today. It was really fun. Preston touched a starfish, sea anome, and sea cucumber. His favorite part was the sea lions, sea otters wrestling, and the "river otter going potty on the rock." Don't you just love the obsession 3 year olds have with the bathroom? Potty talk is the topic of discussion at the Matthews house right now.

3. We all call Wesley silly terms of endearment in a high baby talk voice. Tonight Preston was mimicing us and called Wesley a "Silly Monkey Stinky Head" He tells us everyday, "Wesley is so cute. He is so little." He asks a couple of times a day to hold him. I have been impressed with how great of a big brother he is - we have had no problems. And watch out - Preston tells us that 2 babies are coming out of his tummy soon.
