Horton Family Update

Greetings!

Well, the weeks have been flying by and we are having a great time with little Mattie. She is so precious and continues to amaze us everyday. This past week, she has really started cooing and talking to us. Her best time is always in the morning when she wakes up. I think God knew that since I was NOT a morning person, that I needed a little help to get me up and going. Well, this little chick helps me out with that! We have so much fun waking up and talking to each other. I thought you all might like to see what a pleasant person she is - see video below:


This coming weekend our little one will be two months old. We cannot believe how quickly she is growing up and changing everyday. Her recent milestones are sucking on her hands, making good eye contact, responding to sounds/words, LOTS of talking/cooing, and sleeping in longer stretches - hooray! She is getting bigger and bigger and George and I's arms are getting more and more tired. We are definitely going to have to beef up to keep up with this one's growth and increasing weight! She has her 2-month check up next week and we are very curious to see how much weight she's gained the past month. Judging by her wrinkles and crevices, it will be quite a bit. ;)

I have gone back to work part time and am getting back into the swing of things. It's very hard to be away from Mattie but I am glad that she is in the care of a trusted friend while I'm away. This week marks my last week before I go back to work full-time. Prayers are appreciated!

George's first football game of the season is tomorrow night. Today, he dressed her up for church in her best Pioneer gear (Courtesy of JoAnn Cochran!) to get ready to cheer on the team. GO 'NEERS!
