Hungry!

Our little boy is hungry! Last night it was pathetic. Mom, Dad and Becca ate and Matthew drank. He started crying. I had to remind Matthew that it was only for a short period of time and that I would try and make him soft foods tomorrow (which is today). Soft scrambled eggs should be a hit with him. He's so hungry! A smoothie for dinner was ok, but he wanted FOOD! REAL FOOD!

This morning he wanted to go with his big sister to daycare, but he couldn't. He wasn't happy about that either. He was REALLY upset when it was time to "wash and medicate" the sutures "down below".........we have to do this every time we change his diaper! He cries. It hurts. We know this. But we MUST do it or infection will set in. We don't want that.

Right now Matthew is playing with legos and watching Lilo & Stitch. He likes both. He has his no-no's off for the moment. He KNOWS the rule! No touch mouth!!! He hasn't really touched it, or come close, but even when I just leave the room for a minute, I put the no-no's back on because we don't want to go through all of this again!!!

Charlie the doggie is watching over Matthew pretty intently too. I think Charlie knows Matthew is "sickly" for the moment. It's interesting to see.
