Just 'Cause

This one is just too cute not to share.

Mischief Managed

We are finally moved and mostly settled. Mathias is finally starting to adjust to our new home. He wasn't very sure about our move and has had a hard time the last few weeks. Mathias loves to explore and has figured out how to open the cupboards. This is his favorite new activity driving mom and dad crazy. He reminds me a lot of Brian in these pictures with his saggy, baggy pants.

Long Time No See

Mathias and I drove up to Idaho Falls to visit my best friend, Rachel, before she returned to Alaska where her husband is stationed in the Army. We spent two days just hanging out like old times, except, of course, with a baby in tow. Rachel and I have been best friends since high school and try to get together when we can. Unfortunately, it isn't very often we get to see each other in person. We had a lot of fun and I am glad we could get together before she left.

Baby Attacks Hair!!!

Mathias attacking Rachel.

Some days I wonder if Mathias is going to be the kid on the playground that all of the girls hate because he pulls their hair. I don't know what to do with him, he pulls hair at every chance he gets! He seeks it out! A few weeks ago at church Mathias was standing up on the back of the bench and there just happened to be a family with three little girls sitting behind us. One of them had her hair up in a bun and was turned around coloring. Needless to say, Mathias reached out and pulled.

Bath Run

Mathias loves bath time! He gets really excited when he hears the water running and we start getting him undressed. As soon as we let him go, he heads straight for the tub. His legs get going faster than his arms and he face-plants in the same place almost every time. He'll climb in the tub himself if we don't catch him.

Binky, Binky

Mathias thinks it is pretty funny that he has 2 binkies. I keep a spare in his crib so that when he throws the first one over the side he still has a binky. That is until he drops that one too. He has quite a little personality, he keeps me laughing.

Fish Lips

Mathias has started making fish lips after evey bite of food. Silly kid.

Mathias Watching Mathias

Mathias thought it was pretty funny to watch himself on the computer. This is my first time posting a video clip, hopefully this will work for everyone. Click on the screen and then click on play.

Bath Time???

"Are you serious?"

While getting a bath ready for Mathias, Brian put him in the sink to keep him out of trouble. He wasn't quite sure what was going on.

Just Playing

Mathias rarely plays with his own toys. He is usually trying to get the computer, our shoes or anything else that is off limits.

Face Lift

Our blog has had a face lift! I think the pink may have been a bit too feminine for a family of boys so I decided to give our blog a more neutral look. I hope you like it.

Funny Face

Mathias has started pulling funny faces. This is the one he pulls most often. He is a funny kid. He also just learned to clap. Brian and I think it is pretty funny because he gets really exctied when he does it and then makes his funny face.

Happy Kid

Tongue

Mathias has had his tongue hanging out like this for days. We later figured out is was because he was about to sprout his first two teeth. He actually drools less when he is teething if you can believe it.

Headphones

Mathias wasn't quite sure what to think of the headphones.
