Mattie had a great time at the park with Daddy, Mommy, Nona, and Puga. Read Mattie's shirt. It says "My big sister is a Pug." Mattie LOVES her "dog"!








Mattie says a big Thank you to her Aunt Deborah and Uncle Joel!!!! She received a cute Valentine's day Dog in the mail this weekend. Mattie can say "dog", and this morning she called it a "dog." So cute!!

Mattie is loving her new playroom! Daddy and Uncle Mark painted it green and mommy hung a few jungle animal pictures to finish the room off. Mommy and Mattie love this room! Poor Puga Ann, she does not get to visit very often, but the cats do!

Mattie is loving music class, reading books, and playing with Puga and Yogi when she can. She loves to pat, bounce, and clap. We love seeing her do new things each day! Sometimes we think she is saying "Hey","dog", and "duck". We like to think she is..... Matt and I think that once she is able to really talk she will probably never stop. She can sign milk, all done, and more. This makes Mommy happy because we have been working very hard on this. It really has not improved her table manners as she yells at the cook then signs. Anyway, Mattie is growing so fast and we are so proud of her new skills.











It is getting harder and harder to take pictures of Mattie. She will not sit still, smile on demand, or keep her eyes open. But look at those beautiful eye lashes!!!
