I totally agree about the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. I totally go on a rant anytime anyone will listen. So stupid. I was never a fan, but am now anti-them just for their idiocy.

The flowers are called passion flowers. It’s a religious reference, but the flowers are so beautiful, I think other definitions work as well.

Passion flowers are really great for attracting butterflies, especially the big orange and black ones that look kind of like monarchs.

Glad Madelaine enjoyed the Dodgers game!

I cheated and looked ahead at the Dodger’s pixs. You are an amazing photographer and I’m not sure what you’re occupation is, but I’m thinking you could make a nice pay check with your photos. As always, Maddy is quite the doll. Love her, you are an awesome daddy.

Whoever says running relieves stress lies… the thought of running stresses me out… Madeline is getting so big! Sniff Sniff! My lil boy is 7 months old… the time flies… keep that camera snapping! I have like HUNDREDS of pictures of Kevin from the last 7 months, I can’t believe how much he has changed! My hubby says she is a spitten image of her father! He teases me for checking your blog on a regular basis! i JUST LOVE SEEING WHATS UP IN YOUR WORLD! Keep up the good work Daddy!

Hi… First time commentor… I stumbled across your blog yesterday, and spent most of the evening reading your archives.

I wanted to say how very sorry I am for the loss of your beloved wife.

And I wanted to tell you that your daughter is so beautiful, and I think you’re doing a great job.

I’ll be keeping you both in my prayers.

Glad you got outside for some exercise. I used to run and I loved it. I really do want to start again, but I need a running buddy. I’m hopeless by myself…don’t have the discipline. But I am loving my new Tai Chi class…you should seriously check it out. Positions that are named “crouching tiger”…what’s not to love? P

Also, I really liked Yosra’s comments from yesterday. She also seems like a cool chick.

For me, it helps to give back to others to get through rough times. Did Liz have a particular charity or hobby/interest that she loved? Maybe you could carry on in her name?

“Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others.� One of my fav quotes by Plato; seems like Liz lived her life this way.

This is now another fav quote of mine- :O)
“we did a lot of

staring at each other.

she smiled a lot

so did i.”

What a lovely day, out and about in the sunshine. She is just getting more gorgeous by the day. Before you know she will be sitting up and smiling at you eye-to-eye.

I am addicted to reading your blog, God bless you and Madeline. I realized by reading your blog how much I have taken for granted. Thank you Matt for sharing your story. You have really touched my heart with your blog even though you have a really bad potty mouth lol (i do too and my daughter does repeat alot of naughty words she should not say such as damn it,freaking,ass ect. so be careful around that baby doll with the cursing trust me)
