They'll always be little boys

So tonight Uncle Clint came over for a visit.
Matthew had decided to fall asleep early, or as so Daddy claims anyhow. I was downstairs making supper and at 6:45 went to see what was going on upstairs and Matthew was already sleeping! "He fell asleep before I could even put him in his sleep bag".... hmm.... funny how that always happens when I come to inquire!

Anyhow... I knew that wasn't sleeping for the night. So, he woke up just as Uncle Clint was arriving and Daddy brought him downstairs. Geepers Creepers! The child has never screamed as loud as he did then! I'm not sure if it was because he just got up, or he remembered that it was Uncle Clint that Mommy and Daddy had abandoned him on in Banff... or because Uncle Clint has a gotee?? I don't know, but it took a good 5 minutes before he would calm down. (Then only one or two tickles from Uncle Clint and suddenly Matthew as his best friend).

Later on, the Men, er... boys, were upstairs playing video games and so you can imagine that Mr. Matthew did not want to go to bed. Here he is... right in the middle of all the action!



p.s. Matthew has now figured out how to pull himself up on to everything and anybody who will let him... His new trick is to hold his hand out and get you to help him "walk" over to something else that he wants to see.... oh boy.. it won't be long now....
