Matthew is 20 months old TODAY!

No new pics to post right now. I actually have new ones from the portrait studio but need to find a scanner. Today is July 17th and Matthew is 20 months old today. Yesterday marked the 2 month anniversary of our court date and "gotcha day" for Matthew. I can't believe the changes in just 2 months with this little guy. He is now drinking milk without me begging him to, he eats well, is gaining weight and growing! He walks fast, runs, climbs and can get into just about anything. He even throws his arms around Mommy's neck and gives sweet little kisses without being prompted. He's now giving love back which is a milestone.

Matthew began Nursery School/Daycare on Monday July 10th. He is doing wonderful after just 1 short week. He has made new friends (a little girl in particular who is 15 months old and has her eye on Matthew), is learning something new every day. Denise is a God send without a doubt. He learned how to play in sprinklers the other day. Most kids ran through them to get some relief from the heat. Matthew sat on the sprinklers and got soaked. It's never a good sign when you go to pick up your child and he's not wearing the same clothes you dropped him off in. Took me a minute but I was thankful it was water play and not illness. He has suffered his first skinned head/nose and bruised shin. He's a boy, they have to get banged up.

I'll write more later once I figure out how to get the new pics on my computer.
