Fever Due to Shots.

Meeting his New Buddy Luke Parker
Sleep: Ah-Oh. I knew it would happen. All this bragging I have done! Matthew is finally paying back all the nights of snoozing all night long! Due to a little tooth and a pesky cough, Matthew has been waking up at least once a night. By the time us heavy sleepers realize he is awake....he is WIDE awake. So a diaper change and feeding is always required. It is a good thing he is so cute!  (I don't always feel this way....but most of the time, I actually don't mind getting up with him. I usually take that time to pray and am thankful that I have a baby to wake up for!)

Nutrition: Milk! Eats 6-7 a day. He is now enjoying (although he might not agree with the enjoying aspect of that): Rice Cereal, Oatmeal, Prunes, Sweet Potatoes (LOVES), Carrots (Enjoys), and Peas (HATES--he gags before it even gets to his lips! Big Brother must have taught him that).
 
 Activity: Sits up all by himself. Started getting on all fours. Scoot around trying to get toys and catch up with bro brother.

These Brothers Love Each Other
Milestone: GOT His First Teeth! The Bottom Middle Tooth FINALLY broke through. He is drenched in drool as I type this....I think he is working on some more.
Meeting Santa for the first time!

5 Month Old Matthew

This little baby is growing up right before our eyes!


Some Stats:
Diapers: Size 2 / Size 3
Clothing: BARELY still in 3-6 Months 
Sleep: Still amazing! Typically sleeps between 8 - 10 Hours a night still. My cat napper during the day. (He just doesn't want to miss anything!)
Nutrition: Milk! Eats 6 times a day. (3 Nursing / 3 Bottles of 5 ounces) Started testing out rice cereal as well.

"What am I suppose to do with this stuff??"


Activity: Started trying to sit up this month. Definitely doesn't stay still for a moment.  ALWAYS wants to be able to see what brother is doing.



Always Smiling!


Love my Brother!
