Mathias...

well.. I feel like time is just flying by without stopping to let us take a breath! Today Mathias has been taking his hands off of my side or leg .. or even the couch a few times and has been trying to walk to Emily it was crazy.. i about died! i don't want him to grow up.. selfish i know.. but on the other had i cant wait until he can walk and talk so he can tell us what he wants and whats on his mind.. i wonder sometimes. When i watch Mathias with other children when we're out you can tell he wants a brother or sister to play with at home. its very weird when Mathias and I go to walmart he starts crying when he sees another child because he just wants to go over to them. This nanny job has helped with that. He doesn't get so upset when he sees other kids now.. he still would like to go over to them but he has that 3-5 hr period during the day mon-fri where he gets to have his Emily and Charlie. You can definitely tell when its a Monday though because as soon as we get to their house Mathias is all over Charlie! i am not sure how Charlie feels about this .. but i know Emily loves it. Rick thinks i'm nuts thinking that Mathias "wants" a brother or a sister but i swear... if you see that look in his eye that he gets when another child is around.. it almost breaks my heart.
