Last weekend Mateus and I took a road trip to Philadelphia to visit with friends and to see Grandma T. and Aunt Sandy. Mateus is the perfect road trip companion....He does not argue with my choice of music, sleeps until he needs to stretch his legs and then starts talking to me when he needs a break. He was a trooper through it all. We spent one night in 3 different places. I have now become an expert of the put up and take down of the pack-n-play and for the most part Mateus just went with the flow. It was a wonderful weekend to get to spend some quality time with some of my dearest friends and getting to see Mom and Aunt Sandy was an added bonus. Here are some pictures from the weekend....

The next generation!
Cayden really enjoyed holding Mateus on his lap.
Sydney was in from Seattle for 48 hours. I haven't seen her in almost 2 years so we had lots of catching up to do!
Mateus dressed up in his button down for all the girls.
This is the face I woke up to after his first night in the pack-n-play in a strange place. I'd call the night a success.!
Following our road trip and recovery, Mateus had his 6 month check-up at the pediatrician. He now weighs 16.3 lbs- up 10 lbs from his birth weight! We got the go ahead to start introducing food. Needless to say he appears more than ready as he is so fascinated by any food or drink that makes its way in front of his visual field. We started with sweet potatoes today and he welcomed them with open mouth! He was also introduced to the sippy cup with water and apple juice mixed together. He really enjoys chewing on the end of the cup and with help can drink down its contents.
Here are a few other excerpt pictures from the week......
