7 months with Matty!

 Seven sweet months with our happy, chunky Matty! 

His personality is really starting to come out and we just can't get enough of him. We wouldn't mind if he slept more at night but overall he is the happiest little dude.  He is starting to sit up on his own, however he really shines in the rolling department. 

Things I have learned this month: don't leave folded laundry on the floor, Matty will attempt to pull down curtains, he loves a good mirror, eating his toes, and that stacking cups are simply the best.

He loves fruit and pizza crust! He does not love avocado. And has questions about wafers. 

He loves all of Robert's toys which is teaching Robert a tough (but important) lesson in sharing. The phrases "mine!" and "want it!" are heard often around our house. We also hear Robert saying "what's Matthew doing?" and "I love you Matthew" which really is the sweetest thing. Looking forward to seeing them play together as Matthew continues to grow. He loves watching Robert. Robert makes him smile and laugh a lot. 

Robert insisted on putting his sunglasses on Matthew.

Matthew loves Dada's hoodie strings. 

This picture is actually from Matthew's sixth month doctor's check up. It was a bit after he turned 6 months. Weighed 18 lbs. 9 oz, 27.75 inches long- same as Robert (well Robert was 28 inches but that is still so close!)

Me and my sweet boy! He is always such a champ about being in the carrying most afternoons after nap. This gives me the hands I need to play/walk with Robert outside while also being with Matty. 

Matthew at 6 months, 5-1 months.
