Happy Thanksgiving!


Max enjoyed his first Thanksgiving dinner, consisting of yams and pears, we were going to give him a tiny bit of turkey, but that will just have to wait. Here is Max at the dinner table ready to chow down!

Latest Max news

Max has been up to a lot lately, however, we've been a little behind with the blog, so here is an update for everyone.
1). Max's third tooth came in yesterday. The front right on the top.
2). Max made his first cell phone call on Thanksgiving. While playing in his saucer with mom's cell phone, he started to get fussy. This fussiness led to crying so mom picked him up and took him upstairs. When they came back down mom had a missed call from grandma. Apparently, Max had called grandma and left a message crying for help. Max is already learning that when he doesn't get his way with mom and dad, call grandma!
3). Max officially loves prunes. See below.

Fort Schroder

Daddy introduced Max to a childhood favorite a couple weeks ago. Using all of the cushins from both couches and the bar stools, we created quite the fort. Dad has always loved building forts, so he can't wait for the next one.

Time to bubble wrap the house!


Max is now officially mobile, making his way from room to room, he has become quite the efficient crawler! Last Wednesday he also pulled himself up to a stand on the hearth, and since then he has been making this a favorite activity, leading me to seriously consider the bubble wrap. As if that weren't enough, today he has stood up all by himself three times, without even a wobble!

Max the Mover!

Max crawled for the first time today! He made it a short distance this afternoon with grandma, and then this evening he was so motivated to get to Dad's laptop that he made it almost 5 feet! Now we have to safety-proof the house!
