Grandma & Grandpa Vincent talking with Mateo at a restaurant in Kankakee (1/2 way between our homes)	Yes, he's starting him early! Where's Mateo in all that camo?	Mateo's first real bath with Daddy...and last.  The next time he "let it rip" all over the bath and Mommy!  (YUCK!)
Great Grandmother Mary holding Mateo for the 1st time	Aunt Jenny changing Mateo - quite a different experience for a mother of 3 girls, but as you can see, she has lots of help!	A very happy moment for Mateo who has been talking & smiling quite regularly now.  What a treat!
