Matthias: 3 months

Our infrequency in posting is an indication of how busy things are here. We both went back to work/school at the end of August, and bewteen that and Matthias, we don't have much time for anything else. Things are going well, though. Matthias is getting big and developing more abilities all the time. He is generally a happy guy, but he has had some colic, which we think is due to sensitivity to dairy and soy. He has been feeling better since Amy cut those ingredients out of her diet.

We are trying a new method of sharing photos, through Walgreens Photo. Let us know what you think.

Matthias (21 photos), by Amy Hansen

I'd like to share my Walgreens Photo Center photos with you. Once you have checked out my photos you can order prints and upload your own photos to share.

"It's About Time"--More photos of Matthias!

The requests have indeed been heard. Here in FOMLF&Z-land, we've been inundated with demands, pleas, and threats for more pics of Matthias Lee. Well, everyone, this here post is chock-full of heart-warming images. So sit back, keep your finger on the scroll button, and enjoy!
