Baby Matthew is five months old today. I am wondering where the time went. Seems like just yesterday I was still pregnant! He's growing and changing so fast. He is getting good at grabbing things - like my hair, and hot cups of tea (danger). So, I have to really watch what comes near those little hands. They are strong! He loves sucking on everything he can grab. I guess it is time to think about baby-proofing around here. I thought I had a few more months! :)
Matthew continues to be a happy, easy baby. He's a big eater and not much of a sleeper. But he's happy to hang out with me while I work or go for a walk. As long as he's not strapped into his car seat for hours and hours, he's pretty happy.
Adam's world is rapidly expanding. He's told me that Frosty the Snowman is bringing his presents for Christmas, not Santa cuz he doesn't like Santa, but he will when he is bigger. He loved going and cutting down our Christmas tree and enjoys reading his Christmas books - Frosty, Rudolph etc. He's very much a little boy and insists on riding his "motorcycle" to the mailbox each day. He's really fast and agile on his little skuut bike (a wooden bike with no pedals that he thinks is his motorcycle). He loves music and insists on listening to "his" Christmas music in the car. Matthew actually finds music soothing in the car, so we've listened to the same song over and over and over to keep him calm on long car rides. Makes the rest of us crazy, but it's better than a screaming baby. :)
We have been traveling so much, we haven't had much time for home improvement projects, but we'll get back to it after the new year. I already have some paint ready to throw on the walls!
We are really looking forward to the holidays and sharing wonderful traditions and experiences with family. Hope everyone is celebrating the joy of the season and is thankful for all their blessings - we certainly are!!!
