Visiting Baby Canaan

Max went to visit Baby Canaan last week. This is about the closest we could come to getting Max to sit still next to Canaan. There are just too many things to explore to be sitting still next to sleeping babies. :)

Jude decided to turn his camera on the adults for once.

9 months old and in to EVERYTHING

Max is nine months old and officially at the "in to everything" stage. It's so much fun to watch.

Below: He worked to get Grandma's entertainment center opened and proceeding to pull out and knock down all the videos.Of course at least 4 adults stood by and watched him without stopping him...Little boys (and I suppose little girls also) are supposed to be allowed to get into supervised mischief.

Max weighed in at 19 lbs. 6 oz. at the doctor's office yesterday. He is 28 inches long. These measurements put him in the 50% percentile for height and weight and then on to the noggin. He's in the 90% percentile with a 47 cm head measurement. Max's parents are sure that is measurement means he's so smart (big brains) :) Dr. Tara said he is a healthy growing boy. She did comment that these check ups were easier to perform 6 months ago when he didn't insist on trying to crawl off the table.

I just can't help it

I feel like I'm always posting pictures of bathtime but I just can't help it. They always turn out so cute! Plus...you can't get by with posting these kinds of pictures for long, so you'll probably be seeing more bathtime to come.

Chance of Rain?

Max must have been expecting inclimate weather in Grandma's kitchen with that hood up.

Share and share alike

Gracee will snap her toy ball out of the hands of any adult but she is perfectly content to let Max have it for as long as he wants. What a good big sister she is.

In MOTION!!!

After several weeks of scooting, "worming", army crawling and other methods, Max is officially crawling. He is speedy too! Keeping Mommy and Daddy on their toes.

"Where should I go next?"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA G

Max (and Mommy & Daddy) want to wish Grandma G a very Happy Birthday!!
Hope you have a great day (we'll celebrate this weekend) :)


Max LOVES paper so you'd think this would be an easy picture to capture....not so much...Max does not enjoy paper in the flat form. He enjoys paper in the crinkled up (and sometimes in his mouth) form.

"Really?? Sticking straight up?"
