The three amigos

Introducing the Matusek boys!! Life is crazy with 3, but let me tell you about how my older boys have taken to having a new little brother around.


This is what I heard constantly from Kimball for about 2 weeks after he came home from Rexburg: "Can I hold baby Zachary?" Kimball is a great big brother! Besides being a great friend and playmate to Brandon, he is Zach's "Guardian." He has to be there for everything, runs to his aide if he starts to fuss, talks to him, and comments on any little thing that Zach does. It is amazing to watch how he interacts with Zach.

"Mom, I gave Zach my bunny!"


Kimball is so proud of his brother Zach
Brandon has adjusted so well to being a big brother. It was his reaction to a new baby that we were concerned about, but we were both pleasantly surprised when he warmed right up to Zachary. He likes to be around Zachary and show him some of his toys. If mommy asks, he will go and put Zach's pacifier in (or attempt to). He likes to sit by Zachary and look at his face and watch his movements. He will hold Zach, but doesn't beg us like Kimball does. He is a caring big brother, Zach is lucky to have Brandon!
