Faster than a Speeding Bullet!

I don't know who enjoys these "Superman" pajamas more; Terri & me or Matthew.

The Injustice of Bedtime

Few nights go by without an epic battle come bedtime. Matthew could be walking around the house wimpering with his eyes half shut, but, put him in his crib and "It's on!" Terri took these classic shots while Matthew was expressing disatifaction with his current level of parental service. Notice the foot on the railing and the stuffed animal body-count.

Why Parents Never Sleep

Every night around 4am Matthew's feeding pump starts to alarm telling us that his overnight feeds are done. When I went in this morning I discovered the feeding tube wrapped around his neck and shoulder area. The older Matthew gets, the more he seems to thrash around in bed while asleep. It's ironic that the machine which "giveths" life could "taketh" it away. While the solution is easy (we'll go back to running the tube out his pajama leg), the mere thoughts this image provokes are, nonetheless, unsettling.

Have you ever been this tired?

Lately, Matthew has been protesting bedtime. Terri says he stands up in his crib and cries until he falls asleep. Now that's fortitude!

Sleeping baby pictures are always a hit! So we thought we would post this one of Matthew and his favorite stuffed animal, the little spotted doggie. We here at Matthew's Blog are well aware that you are helpless against the power of a pictures like this. Posting such addictive images ensures that you will keep coming back.

The Sound Sleeper

I am always envious when I look in the rear view mirror and see the little prince sleeping like this. There is nothing like the rhythm of the road to put you to sleep.

The Little Dreamer

Can't you just hear "Dream Weaver" in the background?

Have you ever been this tired?

They say, "Play is the work of a child." Well Matthew is no slouch! While Terri and I were excercising in the back yard last week, Matthew was playing hard. In fact, he plum wore himself out. I think I looked like this behind the wheel a time or two when I worked graveyard.
