change in title

i realized that we needed to change the name of our blog... at least for now.  this will assist people in remembering that preston is here and he is here to stay.

my goodness i didn't know we had such an entourage of followers.  some avid followers, and some occasional.  we need to hear from you folks that meander in and out of our cyber-lives, thus giving us more reason in life...or just motivation to post up the latest and greatest from the kansas home-front.  

the latest and greatest is that the Doctorate program is 100% legit. we are only in the second week, so i don't have much to report but that it feels good to be learning again after the 2 1/2 week break i had there.  because of brody's mom we took a "starting the doctorate" picture!  :)  and if you are thinking "what in the world!? matt doesn't know how to hold a baby!"  well, you sir, or ma'am are wrong.  preston loves to get a little stretch of his neck when he can.
for some of you that dont know brody, he is a stunningly handsome single utah transplant lookin for the right lady out here in kansas while doin up the DC program with me.  he runs half marathons (or will soon), and this white boy has got mad hops.  check out how high he can jump...
reagan is so good with preston, even when he's up every hour of the night just to play.  lately he has decided it is fun to barf. not only that but to put a huge smile on his face as the chunks of curdled milk rest on his lips and chin.  i will spare the curdled milk, but here is his cute lil smile.
weather is getting nicer here and that means tis time to run without my shirt and be a blinding white body to reflect as much sun light as possible...and, this just in. i am going to run the KC half-marathon.  yes.  not as great as a full, but who does full marathons these days anyway?  jess motivated me to do this, and im hoping to have her out here to join me.  with all of this i have recruited 2 other females, and ... drum roll....................... 4 other dudes!  yes, real men run half marathons.  it is going to be an amazing race.  its not till october 17th or so, which means we have time to train. maybe next year we will do the full marathon!  anybody want to join?

talking about joining.  i have multiple throngs i have created.  one being the marathon. the other being the MAC users.  i have converted 3 of you out there to make a your one big leap for your own good...hehe. i warned you ;)  the other throng i would like to create is the following of So You Think You Can Dance, aka SYTYCD for short. will you join the throng?

So fun to see your pictures and hear your happenings! We can't wait to come to visit. Preston just keeps getting cuter and more handsome. I love his smile.

I wish you the best in your Marathon.

It looks like you have some mad jumps in you. SYTYCJ?

Glad to see pictures of the little guy! I'm sure Grandma Foote is missing her little grandbaby!

That is by far the cutest little boy in all of Kansas. I am so looking forward to holding him and kissing his cute face again. Taylor is too. She said she doesnt want to share. We had our first SYTYCD party tonight. So painful to watch some of the dancing and then joyful to see the others. Denver made a great showing! represent that.

Matt! By the way, I happened to glance at a conversation between you and Travis on FBk.....it was a little scary of course and extremely hilarious. Good luck in your DC program, I'm extremely excited for you. Just thought I'd drop a note so you know that I always read your blog....I'd have to say it's my favorite out of all three that I follow. :)
P.S. The word here is "boutic"
