The Life of Matthew

The other day Daddy and I were alone in the house and I was obviously going to get hungry. (Mummy says I’m definitely Daddy’s boy because I’m always thinking about food.) We defrosted some of the breast milk that Mummy had pumped and stored for me and then we sat down to a nice meal […]

I’m now two months old and have recently started doing a whole bunch of things I never used to. Let me take you through my exciting new developments.
It’s been about a month since I gave my first real smile to Mormor but now I smile all the time. I smile and I gurgle and I […]

Mummy and Daddy took me for my two month check up today and I can’t say that I had a particularly enjoyable time of it.
First of all my appointment was at 12:00. We got there early in case I needed feeding and changing and sure enough both were required and administered. We then waited. And […]

This is not the answer I was looking […]

In case you missed the gist of this post, today is Mummy’s birthday!
I have the best Mummy in the whole wide world. She made sure that I had a wonderful home when I was growing inside her and now she makes sure that […]

Well, the day finally arrived! Mummy, Daddy and I have waved bye bye to Mummy’s OBGYN (at least to the OB part of him). For the very first time Mummy was late for an appointment because I had to be fed before we left. Fortunately the doctor was also running late so it didn’t matter. […]
