Piper is so happy in the jumperoo. I think he may like it even more than Finley did! His head control was not very good at first, but within a few days we could see a huge improvement! Here are a few of his famous smiles!


Finley likes to read a story called "The Boy With A Drum". It's about a boy that has a drum and he plays as he marches down the road. He is joined by all kinds of animals and making all sorts of sounds. It's a cute story and probably Finn's favorite. This is the first part of the story.


This is the last part of that story.

Matthew's family got together for Bob's birthday. The kid's had a ton of fun (as usual) running and rough-housing. Finn loves playing with Allie and Anna. Whenever they are around he is sure to get a piggy-back ride...one of his favorite things to do!


Anna giving him a ride...looks like Finn is enjoying himself...maybe not so much Anna.


A fun ride on Allie's back.


Here is a video of Finn saying "Kee-keeyou, Shawa" (Thank you, Sharon). We did not teach him to say our names, he just picked them up on his own. It's hard not to laugh when he says it...especially when he runs around the house yelling for "Mattote!" I wonder where he learned that...

Piper exercising his legs with the brace on. He really doesn't mind them at all.


Sweet little Piper hanging out on his quilt from Nana.


A smile from Piper.


I think he's workin' on something...


Okay, this is painful to watch, but here's Piper's poochy lip.

Here's our smiley little boy! If you so much as look at him he will smile at you with a big grin.


He likes to just hang out on the floor and watch Finn jump and play around him. He also loves getting his diaper and clothes changed!


We had a relatively warm day and Finn got to go outside. I told him specifically to "go jump in the mud puddles".


He loved jumping in the mud, but did NOT like getting his hands dirty! In this picture he is saying "Messy!".


You can be sure that the first thing he did when we got in the house was wash his hands for about 45 minutes!
