The warmer weather this week is a blessing. Matthew has been on many walks outside with me, Lauren and both of us. The fresh air and exercise feel good. He now weighs 13 lbs 7 oz. He is engaging with us and his toys while he's awake, smiles throughout the day (last week just was mostly mornings), and smiles in response to someone smiling at him. I am so excited for him to start giggling. He loves when we sing to him and doesn't mind that none of us except Lauren can carry a tune. He still loves his hands and is getting better at getting them to his mouth. I watched him for 5 minutes this morning trying to get his thumb to stay in his mouth. Sometimes he would get it there and other times it would hit his forehead or eye. I learned a few infant massage techniques at our class yesterday and he seems to like getting a massage. He also let me file his fingernails today while he was awake. Matthew gets the spa treatments for free! Lauren has been enjoying "chillin" with her friends this week of spring break. We haven't heard from Lindsay yet, which I'm sure means she's having a great time in Puerto Vallarta.
