Baby Phatt
Today Matthew is 4 months old (if you are counting weeks he is at number 17). It is so hard to beleive. Knowing he is my last baby, I stare at him begging him to stop growing. Half joking of course, but serious somewhat. His hands are fat little baby hands with the beginning signs of what I call the knuckle dimples. Mommas out there, you know what I am talking about. Makes you want to kiss their little hands all day long. His legs are big and round and just adorably chunky. How great it must be to be able to say you have adorably chunky legs and that be a good thing!
Today he had his 4 month checkup (how often does that happen the day of?). He is growing… and growing…. and growing. He weighs 17.4 pounds and is 25 3/4 inches long. This puts him in the 90th %tile for his weight (eyes bulging) and the 75th %tile for his height. Boring numbers I know, but I tell you this because he is the BIGGEST child I have ever had at this age. So healthy and just eats and eats and eats. Makes me proud… I almost feel like a superhero… I make milk, what do you do?
That being said, here are some pics of him over the last two weeks. Admire our great collection of sleepers- cute hua? I finally fixed the date at the bottom of the camaera as well. Enjoy!
One of my absolute favorite pictures to date. Look at his gorgeous eyes!
We are fond of the rocking chair. Can you tell?
He is learning to laugh and loves to smile.
We all agree Matthew has the greatest giggle and heart melting smile.
Despite the look on his face in this picture, Matthew loved his play mat. Nick and Luke really loved his play mat. Now we can not find all the hangy things to the play mat….

He is just so precious.
