All Max

This post is all about Max. He'll be two months old on Saturday and I can't believe it! Well....I can and I can't. It does seem like awhile ago that I was hugely pregnant and sleeping all the way through the night (except for potty breaks!!). But I really can't believe that a full two months have passed since our little Maxi (yes, I know--it's a terrible nickname; hopefully it won't evolve into maxi-pad or something!!!) arrived. I love the stage he is in. He is becoming much more content and alert and is smiling and interacting more. He just started cooing and it melts my heart to have "conversations" with him. He's sleeping pretty good at night too, going down about 9:00ish and not waking up until around 5:00 a.m.; then he goes back to sleep until about 7:30 or 8:00 a.m. I can handle that. He's such a sweet baby and we all just love to be around him. Here are some pictures of him over the past several weeks.

My boys!

This is from the Fourth of July (don't you love the hand lopped over the side??). Max just slept in his bouncy seat the whole evening. It amazes me how babies can sleep through such noise and chaos!

2 weeks old

My four babies!

Look at that sweet profile.

Each of the kids with their new brother. So cute!



His "adopted" Aunt Sarah. :)

Grandpa time.

Chubby cheeks!

I love my boy so much!


7 weeks old

Smiling at Emma--she was over the moon!

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to capture a good photo of him smiling yet. Hopefully soon. His face just lights up!
Love you, Maximus!
