A growing Little Mattis

It is amazing how quick kids grow especially in there earlier years. Our little guy is 8 months and wow has he changed. He has gone from not being able to do much of anything to being a curious little boy.
He is now eating toast and enjoying it. When they are born you think it will be forever before I will get a good night sleep or they will doing this or that but voila before you know it they are doing something incredible.

Holding themselves in the bath using you as a chew toy. They are small milestones but yet all so monumental in some small way that make you proud of that little human.

They frustrate you but yet you can't help but love them as they are demanding but don't really ask for that much from life. All they really ask for is to be loved and for your wisdom on life.

It makes you realize there is much more to life then what is going on even in Toronto as I write this article. Yes the G20 summit and all its protests really mean nothing when you are a parent enjoying your children as they are some how more important. It could be since you can control it to some reason but can't control the idiocy of the rest of the world.

In 8 months he has gone from sleeping eating and crying to smiling interacting playing and making unique sounds and gestures. He has developed a personality all his own. Well maybe a combination of Mum and Dad Serious and Silly. He love to do what we do well at least try he loves the computer. Well at least pounding on the keys. He has managed to open programs and send e-mails while pounding away.

Here is a video from today of the Mattis man




I am truly enjoying what father hood brings to ones life and am looking forward to the growing Mattis discover the world around him
