TODAY

Matthew is developing so quickly. He now crawls all over the place! He pulls himself up. He is starting to walk while holding onto things. He climbs up the stairs, but we are still working on going down. In our home we have one full staircase going upstairs to the bedrooms and then three stairs that go from the kitchen on the main floor to the family room.
Carson is such a tease! He will go to the top of the stair from the family room to the kitchen and call to Matthew to come to him. OR, he will start going upstairs to the 2nd floor and tell Matt to follow him. Matthew usually follows. Matthew will also look back at me making sure that I see him. If I go towards him, he speeds up and laughs. It is a fun game to play!

 

As I was playing the piano, Matthew came right up to it and started to play too.

Carson speaks in full sentences now. He asks questions about people. If I talk to someone, he'll ask, "Who's that?" He then sometimes asks how many kids they have, how old are the kids, etc. At breakfast he has asked who made the milk at the store. One time he asked about Matthew's baby cereal, "Who made Matt's cereal?" I then told him, "Gerber."
"What's their last name?"
I say, "Gerber company."
He then asks me, "How many kids do they have?"
It's so much fun having conversations with my little 3 year old, Carson! He loves to count to 10, he has recently added 11-15 to his counting at times. He is full of energy! Carson is such a sweet little boy. If I ever hurt myself, he asks if I'm okay. He says please, thank you, excuse me when I'm in his way.
Carson is a cautious boy, and Matthew seems to be very daring. If Matt is standing up holding on something and wants to get down but can't, he will fall and roll on his back and get to whatever it is that he wants.
I have so much fun with my boys every day! Nathan and I have been so blessed to have such sweet boys in our family! I'm so very glad they came to our home!
