Weekly Update

Not much new to report in the happenings of Matthew. He really seems to enjoy day care and is always happy when Ryan or I pick him up. His giggles have turned into full blown laughs with the occasional snort when he gets really excited. We are just loving being parents!

Matthew is also a very active sleeper. The past few nights we have placed him in his crib with his feet facing the door and his head towards the window. When he starts to wake up in the morning and we go into his room, he has magically turned completely around during the night. His feet in the morning have been facing the window and his head near the door. Somehow he does this while still being swaddled under the arms. He also has been using his head as a pivot and has started getting up on his side from laying on his back. He will arch his back and use his head to press onto the mattress or ground and get on his side. I don't think it will be long until he is rolling from back to front.

When we took a rough weight measurement last week, Matthew was 14 pounds and a bit shy of 24 inches long. He has pretty doubled in weight since leaving the hospital and grown 3 1/2 inches too.
