These last two weeks have been full of firsts and lots of seconds. No, Max is not walking yet. However, I think it should be coming along any time now. Max is certainly adding more silliness to his personality. He has become quite the talker, jibberish of course, but super cute all the same. He keeps up a non-stop dialogue with anyone who will listen and boy does he ever flirt!! He is better at it then I ever was. He lowers his head a little and looks up at you with a smile and those pretty blue eyes. I don't even want to think about the girls that will be calling the house at all hours when he gets older.
Here is a great self portrait, by the daddy, of my two bestest boyes. Nope, no resemblance there!
This is a great picture, for Uncle Loren, Uncle Dave, Uncle Neighbor Mike, and daddy. Maxwell Jones the future lead singer of their rock band. Of course, by the time he is aloud into the club, they will be getting senior citizen discounts. Who knows, maybe he will start rocking out early. He totally grooves when daddy plays the guitar. When Uncle Neighbor Mike comes over, Max bobs his head to Rush with him and daddy.
We tried scarmbled eggs for the first time. He really seemed to like them with a little salt and some of mommies dried chives from the garden. He actually fed himself. He even had little pieces of buttered toast. But it gets better...
PIZZA!!! It seemed like forever since we splurged and got a pizza. I had a really crazy busy day at work and daddy was helping some friends build a small school house on Saturday and neither one of us wanted to cook so Max got to try his first pizza. And what do you know...he liked it. Now if we can just get him to like chocolate, then we know he is really your kid. He also played his first game of chew and show.
Here is where the personality comes in. We did not put that sippy cup on his head. He did! He also likes to put it behind his back, next to him in the seat, where ever. What a goofball!
Daddy has been asking me to give Max's hair a trim and I just never seem to have the time. But as you can see by this Maxhawk, his hair is getting pretty long and it is really thick to. I have already saved some from his first haircut for his baby book, but I feel like I should be saving all of it. Weird, I know. I'll get over it.
This picture was a couple of nights later. We played with Aunty Dixie's birthday gift. Soapy crayons!! I was shocked that he actually colored with them and did not try to eat them right away. I think daddy was having a little fun also. Thanks Aunty Dixie! We still have 5 whole ones left to break!
Good thing are coming around the corner everyday! Max keeps getting bigger, more teeth and happier. We keep falling more and more in love with him. I can't even remember my life without him. Okay, maybe the sleeping in late and lying in bed reading a book. Soon Max will be right there next to us doing the same thing. By then I really will have forgotten.
