Mattias at 15 months

As much as I'd like to post a Mattias update every month-a-versary, it looks like I'll be following the well-child visit schedule.

At 15 months, Mattias is a very busy boy. He wears me out, but I love watching the energy with which he tackles life. His motto is, "why walk when you can run?" And run he does, usually accompanied by the sweetest little squealing noise.

Nothing scares him and often I will come into a room and find him standing on top of something he should, most assuredly, NOT be climbing on.

He has discovered that NO ONE is as cool as his Mom (Dad is a close second) and will screech at anyone who tries to separate us. As enduring as that is, it's a little much when he grabs you by the lapels of your coat as you're trying to walk out the door to have dinner with a friend.

I love this boy... I love his spirit and how he enjoys making people laugh. I love listening to him say "Ao ao ao" when he sees a dog... usually as he's running towards it to throw his little arms around it's neck. I love how he snuggles with Seven, murmuring, "awwwwwww" as he pets her.

He is ALL boy and I am blessed that he's MINE!


First hair cut... not a happy camper




Couldn't you just eat him up?



My little ham



And... pose!



Bucket head! One of his favourite accessories




His first amusement park ride at six flags



Awwwww



Trying out his hallowe'en costume. The verdict is... a big, fat NO!



Crazy kids!



Bubbles!



Bahahaha! I love this picture! It looks like Mattias has caught a whiff of something unpleasant


Searching for the perfect Christmas tree


Peek-a-boo!


Happy 15 months, Mattias! Stay silly, my man.
