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.

Isaac solves a problem
At the park with the two youngest this morning.
Isaac: "I nee' doh potty."
"I think the bathrooms here are closed. We'll have to go home."
"I don' wan' doh home."
"We may not have a choice. Let's have a look."
We rounded the corner and sure enough they were locked. I didn't have a keycard. I turned around to give Isaac the bad news. His pants were around his ankles.
I thought at first that he had just gotten ahead of himself a bit -- at home, he frequently takes his pants off first, THEN runs to the bathroom. But then I saw a sparkle in the sunlight that wasn't dew on the grass. And Isaac let a second stream go.
(Rachel's commentary, later: "Sometimes it's good to be a boy.")
