Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
First, guess who got to go see the ducks again yesterday!
Maxwell and Supernanny Susan always have the best adventures!
Second, I bought a bubble gun this past weekend and Maxwell wasn’t quite so sure what to make of it all…
The bubbles would land on the grass and he was doing his best to pick them up!
The best part was all the mini bubbles and water droplets all over his head!
Bubblicious!
A dozen tidbits I learned this weekend:
1. Putting a belly-crawling Maxwell in a white onesie is a great way to show me how dirty my floors are.
2. After weeks of waving bye-bye to Maxwell, I finally learned that he can, in fact, wave bye-bye back. Robert and I were watching him on the monitor laying in bed just waving his little hand over and over. Not sure who he was waving bye-bye to but it was ridiculously cute!
3. Waving is still a distant #2 to pattycake in Maxwell’s eyes.
4. Maxwell is a great dinner date if you don’t mind going for the early bird special.
5. Maxwell likes pickles.
6. $10 at Wal-Mart buys you all the pool you need.
7. The hose is more interesting to my baby than a pool.
8. Babies look cute wrapped up in towels post pool.
9. Maxwell likes yogurt and yogurt bites.
10. Maxwell will still only eat 1/4 of a puff at a time without gagging. We’re working on textures…
11. Maxwell is getting pretty darn good at pulling up on things.
12. I have the greatest baby in the world. I already knew this, but just keep learning it again and again every single day.
Keep that baby movin’!
Have a great weekend!
First, a crawling update. Since Maxwell started crawling 2 weeks ago, he has quickly progressed from tentative mover to big time mover and shaker! His form is a bit questionable – on the belly, one elbow, one hand, one knee as a rudder with the other leg dragging behind – but he can get from one side of the room to the other in no time flat! He’s quickly showing me where I need to baby proof and what cabinets need to be cleared out! Just yesterday he started to move a little up on all fours. Watch out world!
Second, As I think I’ve mentioned before, my mom has a great group on friends down in Florida and they all do these fantastic dance aerobics classes on the beach. I always try and go with my mom while I’m down there and, let me tell you, it’s a workout…especially in the heat and humidity! When we were down there two weeks ago, Robert walked to the beach with us so everyone could see Mr. Maxwell.
Maxwell wasn’t quite so sure he wanted to be out in that heat!
One of my mom’s friends also brought her granddaughter down that day. Sophie is only 3 days younger than Maxwell and he had the best time checking her out!
Sophie wasn’t quite so sure what to make of Mr. Smiley Grabby Hands!!
Especially when he tried to take her clothes off!!
Luckily Robert intervened before we got into real trouble!
Maybe Maxwell and Sophie can grow up to be beach buddies!
These two cuties had quite the crowd watching them…Maxwell was eating up all the attention!
I think we’re going to have our hands full with this little ladies man! 🙂 It was a great day and, as we left, Maxwell waved goodbye to his adoring fans!
Fun times!
