Mattie Update

Folks, here's the second in a two part series. These pictures describe what Matthew has been up to over the last week or so.

Check this one out. This was taken at Justin's soccer game. Matthew had just been given a substantial dose of Benadryl because of some mosquito bites. As a result, all he felt like doing was hanging out. My little junior addict. Click on the picture for a closer look at his face, which resembles that of somebody who's just scored some really good weed. "Sweeeeeeeet, man..."

Matthew, at dinner, dealing with a serious case of thirst. He's still a little glazed here.

This kid is a cuddler. This one's right after the bath, and Matthew needed some mommy time.

Matthew as a dancing skeleton. I wish we could have gotten his mother in this one; she's dressed up as a skeleton too. It's quite possible that our neighbors think that we belong to some sort of pagan cult, seeing as how dancing skeleton night is a big hit at our house and we're not quiet with it. But we're already Mormons, so the pagan cult thing was probably a foregone conclusion.
This is a picture of our trick or treat practice. Yeah, the neighbors definitely gave us some funny looks on this one, but when that happens I usually just stare at them with a creepy little half smile and they leave well enough alone. This was the first official practice, and while Matthew's delivery was good, Justin wasn't quite "in the moment" enough. He does make for a fairly convincing junior Dracula, though.
