Matt Attack!

The daycare teachers have a nick name for most of their kids.  Matt's is Matt Attack!  Yes, always with the exclamation point.  If you've been around him at all recently, you'll know why the name (and the exclamation point) is so fitting.  And our little Matt Attack! is turning 4 in October.  I figured it was time for an update on his sizes and wants since it's been so long since I've updated anything here. 

Sizes
Shirts: 5T or Youth Small (5-6)
Pants: 5  Adjustable waists are helpful.  He's long and thin.
Shoes: 11

Wants - He'll recite this list in one breath with an 'and' between each one.  It's so cute and funny.  I've been trying to get a video of it for weeks, but keep missing it.  I'll keep trying!
 - A batman cape
 - A batman case (like a book bag, I think...he already has a batman lunchbox)
 - batman shoes
 - a batman shirt (I already got him one long sleeved one...yellow with black sleeves)
 - a batman hat (I got him a stocking cap too...just including all this so you get the scope of his batman love)
 - star wars shirt
 - star wars shoes (the boy loves his shoes)
 - star wars hat (no idea which character)
 - sometimes he throws in Spiderman gear too, but I have quite a few of Spidey shirts...and then he changed wanting all Batman, of course.

So, anything superhero would be safe. (Superman, Buzz Lightyear, Incredibles, etc.)

Other ideas:
 - I saw that Target has a stuffed Batman doll.  He might like that. 
 - He also likes legos (regular size)
 - Imaginex figues and sets are good and come in superhero themes (he already has Buzz lightyear and Woody and a superguy with spaceship).
 - I also saw a Dr. Drill & Fill by Play Doh in an ad this past weekend.  He's a big fan of play doh and I think he'd especially like that set.  I know I did as a kid! 

And please note these are wants.  He doesn't need anything except a hug and someone who'll play with him for hours on end. : )

Matt is the grandchild that changes the most in a short period of time! What a cutie and such a wonderful personality. Can't believe his going to be 4!
