My Day in Charlotte, as told by Mattie and Mommy

"Good Morning! I know I just woke up, but that's the best time to play!"

Even though Mattie had a busy day yesterday of flying and entertaining everyone in the airport and on the plane, and he didn't go to bed until two hours past his bedtime the night before, he was up at his normal time rearing to go.

Aunt Ann had to fly back to Chicago this morning, but not before Mattie posed with her and Grandpa. Notice that there is NO SNOW in the background. It was a beautiful 60 degrees out today!

"Lexi, come and play with me!"

After spending some time playing with Lexi, Mattie ate his lunch, which included Cheerios and turkey.

"Lexi, come share my lunch with me."

Right after lunch, Mattie went with Grammy, Great Grandpa, and Mom to visit Great Grandma.

"Hmm, where are the Sunday comics?"

After visiting Great Grandma, Mattie was hyper and wanting to get into any and everything he could get his hands on.

"Great Grandpa, hurry up and assemble my new toy!"

"Look at me! I can walk! (well, when I push my new activity walker)"

"I hate this bathtub and I don't want a bath; get me out now!"

Mattie usually loves his baths, but for some reason he wanted nothing to do with it tonight. He cried and screamed the whole time, all while trying to get out. He was so tired and worn out from his busy day that he went to bed about 30 minutes later. That concludes Mattie's first day in Charlotte!
