Matthew, You turned 9 months old over 2 weeks ago and it has taken me this long to write about all the exciting developments in your little life. It’s not that I’ve been too busy but, rather, there was just so much that happened in between you turning 8 and 9 months that I simply [...]

Can you say “whirlwind”?
What a whirlwind of a week this has been for learning new skills! Let me recap: ♦ On Sunday, Matthew started crawling for the first time. ♦ On Sunday night, he slept in his crib and went five and a half hours without needing to eat (not that he slept that entire time, but still). ♦ [...]

Naptime is . . .
this. and this. and then FINALLY this. At 8 months, his will is strong and his brain too smart for his own good. He does his best to fight naps. He knows the routine and fights them still. He screams and wails and sobs and kicks and STOPS the second he thinks his performance has [...]
