Getting So Big

My little baby isn't so little anymore...

Mathias is still a baby in terms of his age, but size-wise - the kid's a tree. I can't believe how big he's grown in just 13 months. His hair has always been long, even as a newborn, but now it's thicker than ever so I'm constantly trimming it. His waist is so long and his legs go for miles. It's amazing the physical changes a child goes through in such a short period of time. He's healthy, but because he's so tall for his age, his weight leans more toward the slimmer side. So for now I'm just trying to fatten him up in terms of more calories. So far so good. For the most part Mathias eats the same meals we do and I'm constantly experimenting with new foods to expand his palette. However, he is pretty active so it's hard to keep him from losing some of his baby fat (insert another sad face).
