Couch Potato

January 18, 2011

This is how Maxwell likes to spend his Sundays…lounging on the couch in his sweats.  Good thing he got this cute sweat suit for Christmas!

Mr. Monkey provided some entertainment…

And a good time was had by all!

Thanks for the outfit Dodo!

I have to include this next photo because it’s such a good shot of his yummy chubby cheeks!

Hope we have lots of lazy Sundays together Maxwell!

Would love to hear from you! 5 Comments

Hey Maxwell, what are ya doing?

Oh, hi Momma.  I’m just working away on my laptop here.

Just typing up some emails…

Gotta move the mouse around…

You should really check out all the stuff you can find on this internet thing.  There’s this Brown Brick Road site and you should see the cute baby on here!

Wait a second?!  That’s me!  You’re putting pictures of me on the internet without my permission?!

Momma, that is not very nice.

I have to think about whether this is ok or not.  Better chew on my hands…it helps me concentrate.

Still thinking…

Ok, Momma.  I’ve thought it over and I’ll let you keep putting my picture on the internet.  I’d hate to deny all your loyal readers their daily dose of Maxwell!  🙂

Thanks for being so generous sweet boy.  We’d hate to not get our daily dose of you!!

Thanks for the laptop LuLu and Granddaddy!

Would love to hear from you! 4 Comments

Doctor update!

January 14, 2011

After a reschedule due to the snow and ice, Maxwell and I made our way to the pediatrician yesterday.  It was a GREAT report all around.  Dr. Walley looked at his stats and said, “I think this is the definition of thriving!”  Hooray!  Maxwell is up to 15 lbs which is in the 50% to 75%.  Chubbo!  We love all his rolls!  The most surprising number is his height.  He grew 3 inches since his last appointment and, at 26 inches, is still in the 95% for height!  what?!  Now, he might slow down on this growth and average out but you never know. He could be a tall dude!  This definitely explains why all of his outfits look like knickers on him!  🙂  The doctor also thinks he’s starting teething which explains all the chewing…on everything.  We’re going to wait until 6 months to start rice cereal because that’s how Dr. Walley rolls.  Fine with me.  Things are working great as they are now so why mess with success?!

Here’s a few iphone pics from the appointment:

Happily playing while waiting for the doc…

Not very happy with the 4 needles that were stuck in his leg…

Am I a bad momma for taking that photo?  I was comforting him, I promise!  🙂

Poor, pitiful leg…

Not to worry though, he was calmed down a few minutes later and we were on our way home!

So glad to get a good report from the doctor!  Hope you all have a great weekend!

Jumperoo

January 12, 2011

Last week we decided to put together a new toy for Maxwell – the Jumperoo!  Robert dumped out all the parts and got to work…

“Let’s see what we’ve got here….this piece probably goes here”

“No wait….this piece goes over here.”

“hmmm…maybe it would be a good idea to read the instructions first!”

We got it all put together and it was a hit!  Maxwell hanging out in the jumperoo…

and checking out all the fun things to play with.

The only problem?  He’s not quite tall enough to actually jump in his jumperoo!  Those feet are still far off the ground.  Nothing a little pillow won’t solve…

It doesn’t seem to bother Maxwell though!  He loves his new jumperoo!

Nate update! After a week in the NICU, Nate is breathing great on his own and gets to go home today!!  Hooray!  Here’s a picture from yesterday with no tubes!
