Matthew update
11/25/2008
Matthew took a trip to the doctor's this week. He's had a rash over the weekend so we went and got it looked at. The doctor said he has roseola and that it will go away in just a few days. She said it's really common in babies but I was worried because Matthew hasn't ever had any type of rash. Not even a diaper rash. It didn't seem to bother him though. I did notice that he was little more grumpy than normal but nothing major.
He is starting to get the hang of pulling up. While at the doctor's he was pulling up to stand. He would pull on my shirt until he was standing. Of course he'll sit down then want to get right back up. He has also done this to let me know he wants picked up. Which Matthew has never really reached for someone before so that's kinda nice. Crawling is still difficult. He will get on his hands and knees then rock back and forth. But can only go backwards and he can turn around.

He may skip doing much crawling and go right to cruising and walking...Brittany did a lot of rolling, commando crawling, and then she was cruising the furniture before walking...ya just never know! Love reading the updates, and I was just telling Nick that I wish I could go to Ohio to see him--he's just getting sooo big and all... Miss ya, Aunt Crystal
