Remembering Matt

(by mommy)
Life is a difficult one sometimes. This week I have learned that the best people end up living unbelievably short lives. Another of the first born children in my family has passed away tragically. Matthew J. Munchalfen was only 19 years old when he was taken from us this past saturday. He lived his life to the fullest, though. Always outdoors living. He wasnt like most people these days, sitting around watching tv and surfing the internet. That is something I will always admire about him. He was my little brother's age and they were pretty close when they were younger. I am glad to say that Joli was able to meet him and play with him when we were there for the fourth of July. Unfortunately, she will not remember him. He was a great kid and it is a big loss to our family. I will look for pics to post in rememberance of him.

Meats

I started eating meats a couple of days ago and they are pretty good. I get one jar at lunch time and I think it gives me a bunch of energy to get through the day! So far I have tried turkey, chicken and ham.

I'm REALLY active now

I learned how to crawl a couple of weeks ago and I can really move now! Mommy and Daddy had to watch Great Grandma's house for a week and it was really nice. Mommy came home from work and made dinner every night and I wanted to see what she was doing. I kept crawling into the kitchen to watch her! Sassy the cat and I are buddies. We were playing with her cat toy (the ball with a bell in it) and she kept passing it back to me. It was a lot of fun!! whenever there is open space, put me on the floor and i will go all over!!!
