What We Do Everyday

Here's Max doing all of the lovely, charming, wild and silly things he does everyday (well, thankfully for some things...not EVERYDAY). Here's the newest fun for while Max hangs out with mom in the kitchen: Banging on the Pots and Pans.
And here's the mirror in his crib that has given Max loads of laughs (and mom 2 free hands for a few minutes!).
Here's Baby's First Catastrophe as well. Don't ask us how he managed to pull down a 15lb fern from the top of our bookshelf, but he sure did. We had a good laugh about it after mommy stopped hyperventilating at the thought that it possibly hit her sweetie(s) on the way down (it didn't). And then we took a picture.
And finally, here's old blue eyes singing and dancing at the dinner table. Max has started to dance whenever he hears what he considers a good song. And that warrants just about anything - including mommy and daddy singing. He bobs his head and opens up his mouth to sing along and just generally rocks out. So as you can imagine, we do alot of singing these days just to watch the free show.

Pentacost Weekend at Farmor/Farfar's

Here's Bob the Builder!

We stayed the weekend with the in-laws for the Pentacost weekend and had a really great time. Morten and I had a date on Friday and then the whole weekend there was food prepared for us, coffee at just the right time and someone else who was just dying to hold our 20 pound bandit.

Here, Grandma has given him a colorful bowl full of clothes pins to play with. When those were all sucessfully chucked on the floor, the bowl made a great hat, we decided.

The other photo is of Maximus jamming on the organ. Anything that can be banged, rattled, shoved, slapped or otherwise make some sort of noise when hit (including mommy and daddy) is always a perfect plaything.

Sitting at the Table

Yep, Max is a big boy now and he eats at the table with the grown ups. He's a good eater and drinks very nicely from a cup. Here he's got a rice cake all of his own to chomp on. Favorites are: apple sauce (day or night!), oatmeal, carrots and recently asparagus.
