Well, in the last week, Matthew's spirit of adventure has really come out... In one day he managed to get himself into an ant's nest (completely covered in ants in seconds, including in his mouth) while I (mum) was hanging the washing up outside, and then, he fell down a small set of stairs and scraped his knee. He also managed this week to fall over several times (hardly ever crying)... This new walking thing is dangerous!!!! I have to have at least 4 sets of eyes!
He's actually doing really well though - running around, crash tackling Daddy, and climbing up the stairs to get into the house when we let him out of the car! Its pretty helpful because then I can carry things into the house and not have to carry him too!
We also found an outdoor plastic cubby house on the side of the street with a free sign... and he likes to climb in and out of the different holes, and go up and down the stairs.
He keeps me on my toes - definitely :)!
This week too, we've seen him want to eat his own food with a spoon, which is a challenge, because he only likes to put the food on the spoon, not in his mouth - and then smear it on the high chair table. We have to give him a spoon, and then we have a spoon (which is the only one that actually ends up in his mouth!)... ahh - you gotta love a good mess!
Can't wait till he starts using a fork!
