Matthew was nicknamed "Peanut" by his mother shortly after birth. How shortly, we're not really sure anymore; within the first few sleep-deprived days is all we remember. Matthew never did go through that period of sleeping all the time that baby books tell you newborns are supposed to have. Since his first abnormally alert days he's just become more and more active, and at some point his uncle Grant conferred upon him the moniker Savage.

Songs with Matthew
Matthew got really really into singing kid songs this week. His two favorites, by a large margin, are "Caught a bumblebee" (he pinches his thumb and fingers together and waves it around, saying, Bumblebee -- his first three-sylable word that I can think of, and definitely the most recognizable) and "Three monkeys sitting in a tree, teasing Mr Aligator." Either of these can distract him from all but the most tragic of circumstances. This is a lifesaver in the car sometimes.
