Mateus has been enjoying his last few weeks of summer. We had a little getaway two weeks ago when we spent a long weekend in Berkely Springs, West Virginia. 5 families and 6 kids in a cabin tucked away. We had a blast as we were with some of my best friends and their families. It was fun to have all the kids together and the grown ups enjoyed lots of good food and conversation. Here are a few pics from the weekend...
Hangin' with Daddy at the beach
Checking out the water
Wasn't so sure about sitting in the sand
This is how he enjoyed the water best

Lazy, rainy Sunday
First Grahm Cracker-yum!
The weekend was a learning opportunity for me as I have been so hesitant (and nervous) about giving Mateus finger food. First I was giving him miniscule pieces and only 1 at a time, and only things that were basically the consistency of mush. After watching some of the other kids close to Mateus's age eat a wider variety and bigger pieces, I put my fears aside and boy has he been enjoying himself! He has discovered his love of cheese, grahm crackers, kiwi, and chicken noodle soup.
Chicken Noodle Soup
This month he also had his 9 month check-up. He's weighing in at 18 1/2 lbs and got a thumbs up from the doctor (even though he is still not crawling). Mateus's favorite part of the visit was playing with the white paper on the table.
He loved the sound of the paper when he kicked it with his legs.
And a few more photos from the month.........
