Happy Happy Boy


Im not sure what happened, but I wrote this blog weeks ago...oops



Well, it's been a week and Matty couldn't be happier to be "cast free"! It came off last Monday and ever since then, I feel like he's happier now (and better behaved) as he ever has been! I think he is so relieved to not have that heavy plaster cast holding him back! That thing was heavy and yes, we kept it...and we did find a Cheerio inside it when it came off! His walking is getting better ever day but he does still have a bit of a limp and turns his foot out when he walks. The doctor said that's pretty normal and his limp should go away soon. It's funny, he walks like the cast is still on! We took advantage of his good mood this weekend and decided to attempt going out to dinner again. The last time we tried, we jumped ship before our food even got served and instead had everything packed up and ate at home. He just wouldn't sit still in a restaurant high chair and wanted to get down and move around. We were hoping that was just a phase caused by the cast and luckily for us, it was! This past Saturday night we went to PF Changs in Boston for a nice dinner....we decided to go to Boston because a new PINKBERRY just opened on Newbury Street, so we had to go!!! We had a blast walking through the park before dinner and came across a huge pile of leaves that Matty had so much fun playing in for about a half an hour. Both Andrew and I were taking a million pictures of him and of course, got maybe 2 or 3 good ones! Dinner was good and we discovered Matty loves Hot and Sour soup! He ate almost an entire bowl of hit (feeding himself and ruining a white undershirt in the process!). Sunday we went to the playground for a while and ended up again playing in the leaves for a long time...this time getting a couple of nice pictures and a semi-family portrait!

We are looking forward to more fun times without he happy little guy and love to watch him play and be so happy!
