Matty is on the move

I am sorry it's been so long since I've posted any new pictures, things have been busy! Since our last post, Matty has learned many new things:
  • How to feed himself
  • How to crawl with his belly OFF the ground (and fast!!!)
  • How to clap his hands
  • How to find, within seconds, any uncovered outlet in any room
  • How to high five (sort of...sometimes he just grabs my hand)
  • How to climb stairs (with CLOSE parental supervision of course)
  • How to inflict great injury by kicking his legs when we take him away from something he shouldn't be playing with
In addition to all of that, we also took a nice trip to Minnesota recently. Our friends Sean and Meghan decided to host a Rice reunion at their home in Minneapolis, so in addition to catching up with many of our good friends from Rice, we also got to spend a couple days with my parents, and meet up with some of my cousins. Sadly, our camera ran out of batteries on day 1 and we were too lazy to go buy more, so we have very few pictures from the trip. But, here are some from around the house...

Grandma and Grandpa with Matty



Not only can I feed myself, but I can style my own hair! Oatmeal is a great hair gel.


Kissy face


The blinds provide hours of fun




Who needs toys when you have a cardboard box?


And, a video of him grooving to some music...but someone needs to tell the camera woman not to dance along with him.

Mattie's got some serious dance moves already! Why isn't Juan dancing? Maybe Mattie can give him lessons. :)
