4th of July

We have had a very nice 4th of July weekend. Last year, the 4th was definitely very tense in the NICU...there were docs and nurses in and out of his room all day...needless to say, we are so thankful to have our little guy here at home with us this year. We went out to dinner on Friday, and Matty decided that he didn't want to sit in his carrier and play with toys. So, we took turns holding him inbetween bites. On Saturday, Ronnie, Mary & Nana Flo stopped by with a new Mizzou basketball. Matty loves it of course! Then, we went over to my parents' house for a cookout. Matty fell asleep there, and so he wasn't able to see the fireworks display. Today, we took a nice long walk and have been chasing him all over the place. He crawled down a stair for the first time today, and he continues to pull himself up on different items. Here are the pics from this year:





















And here is little Matty on the 5th of July last year. It is truly amazing to see how far he has come!!
