Matthew at 3 1/2 Years Old

Yesterday Matt turned three and a half years old.

Matt is still much the same as he was at three years of age, especially in terms of his personality as well as interests. He is able to complete more complex tasks. Recently he started being able to put together his Legos just from looking at pictures. And he and his friends interact more as they devise more complicated games and stories.

Matt continues to grow. He measured at 41 1/2 inches the other day (although that was with boots on). He has definitely grown taller since his birthday; his 5T shirts, 4T pants, and size 10 shoes are not as large as they were a couple of months ago. He is not yet 40 pounds, though.

We spent the morning of Matt's half birthday at the children's museum.
