DB @ 6 months
Mattie @ 6 months
Tonight I wanted to look back at DB's baby pictures to see how similar/different he looked from Mattie. They both have chubby cheeks, but they look pretty different to me!

The number 5 (plus one)
There seems to be a common thread connecting my blog with the number 5...meaning I take a five month reprieve from blogging after having a baby. Kind of like a maternity leave of sorts. But the number five also has another significance this year. Five years ago I married an incredible man and he has made me so happy! I love you, sweetie! Thanks for believing in me and loving me...even though we all know I can drive you crazy!
Miss Mattie Elizabeth entered our world on December 28th and life has never been same!! She is full of life, energy and smiles!!Her sparkling personality has already made our home a happier place! From the beginning she has been a 'talker.' Although we aren't fully aware of what she is telling us, we listen closely because we know she has stories to tell! Here are some milestone/Mattie-isms:
a. roll over - 2 months
b. sat up at 4.5 months
c. first tooth - 6 months
d. likes her bottle warm
f. likes to roam the house in her 'car'
g. likes to follow her brother...everywhere
h. loves to smile at people
i. not a huge fan of the pacifier, but she is taking it at night ;)
j. likes country music
k. is a messy eater
l. likes to face outward when being held
DB adjusted really well to Mattie (thankfully). He calls her 'Ma Ma' now and says it so sweetly! He normally asks for her in the mornings, enjoys commentating on her nap schedule during the day and kisses her good night before bed. I hope they will always be sweet to each other! And they are sweet to each other, well, most of the time. We are currently entering the 'toy sharing' era where Mattie wants all to play with big brothers trucks, tools and toys. DB is verbal enough to object, but is always overruled and most often complies with the verdict. Speaking of law terms, Uncle Scott is staying with us this month while working at his internship. We love having Uncle Scott around!
That's all for now! I'm going to post this before I need to add another number to the title!
