Matthew is five months old today.
He’s 16.2 pounds – 38th percentile. He’s 27 inches long – 81st percentile.
He’s outgrown most of his 3-6 clothes mostly because of his length.
He’s super excited about his fingers and toes these days. He lifts his legs up and then grabs his toes with his hands, pulling them closer… especially when he’s getting dressed.
He constantly has a finger in his mouth… just one, and he hooks it right around his gums like that’ll help it stay in or something. We laugh and laugh. He’s starting to get pretty drooley because of his new finger-sucking habit too.
He likes to sit in his exersaucer and play with the noisy roller toys. He likes hanging out in the jolly jumper.
Like all of our kids he is a little behind in learning to roll but with trying to protect him from Luke he doesn’t get that much floor time. We were shocked when he rolled over from back to front a couple days ago. Since then he has mastered it. He doesn’t love being on his stomach once he rolls over.
He just grabbed Chris’ plate at dinner last night and we all went ‘uh-oh.’
He smiles all the time. He laughs at Ryan all the time.
He really is a mellow baby – except when he sees me and then he wants me to pick him up.
He loves hanging out in Daddy’s arms.
He is starting to bite me when he’s nursing except he has no teeth! He nurses frequently but he’s really quick.
He sleeps through the night about half the time, the other half he wakes up once. He still sleeps in our closet and we are getting frantic about where to put him. Now that he can roll over the little tiny crib has got to go. Help!
He loves to grab at toys and loves to hold anyone’s hands. We say he’s holding us hostage.

Excellent lighting, Lisa.
He's just adorable! I can't believe he's in the 38th percentil for weight! He looks like a cute little chunk! And Amy's right! Great lighting!
His cute little babyness makes me baby hungry. Sara is 2 almost and still sleeping in her port-a-crib in a closet. It's a nice closet all to herself, but still a closet. And the worst part is that we expect her to stay there for at least another 4 years. We have our own Harry Potter. Matthew is precious and the pictures capture it all.
How fun to find built in toys! He is so cute!
what an adorable little guy! Can't wait to play with him.
Too stinkin' cute. We look forward to meeting him next week! YIPEE!!!!
So, so cute! I love those little toes. I want to eat him up!
Those pictures are perfect! What a cutie! I love ti when they find their toes!
Matthew is ADORABLE and the picturs couldn't be cuter!
Oh Matthew is soooo stinkin' cute! I am dying to hold him.
Cute pictures Lisa. I love when they find such joy in the little things-their cute little piggies!
The pictures are beautiful. What lens are you using? I can't believe he is so big already. Hope you had a blast at Disney. I still haven't posted our trip...getting there.
Those are amazing pictures. What a doll!
Wow, he looks just like ryan and luke.
Hey Lisa, ask Matthew if he's found your computer too. Because it must be lost since you haven't posted ANYTHING in forever. Please. Update. I miss my friend!
