I could say it a million times but, Max is the most incredible kid to me. I don't know how in the world marshall and I got so lucky. It is nothing at all that we do, in fact most of the time I feel like I have no skills when it comes to being a mom but, Max is amazing. He amazes us everyday! I just want to bottle up every moment with him. He has started waking up at 4 am wide awake and hilarious and I don't even really mind! So we play till 6:30 and go back to bed - unhealthy i know! With a new baby coming I want to enjoy every minute with this boy that I can. plus he is too cute! and maybe it will be good practice for having a newborn again!
Here are some things about Max right now- It could go on for days, and it really might!
He sleeps with 3 binkies and sometimes on a frisbee like in this picture… his other sleeping companions include stuffed animals.. Ernie, Ruff Ruff and now sometimes, Mickey,Nemo, and a Toy Story 3 book.
Since moving to Utah he goes to bed around 8:30 and wakes up around 8:30
He naps for 3 hours still which I love!
He loves to play as a whole family and asks where dad is and answers his own question with "oh daddy at work" ( said "wook") or "daddy go potty" or "daddy go temple"
He says thank you for everything "Nank you" for things like changing his diaper, handing him treats, putting his shoes on and he gives you a big smile like he knows its going to make your day.. which it usually does!
He loves his Bampa ( grandpa) and mostly going for rides in his truck - ( both his ganders have a truck)
He thinks he is way bigger than he is :) these are his two friends.. Tessa ( our neighbor who he sees everyday with excitement and Track)

he wakes up each morning either wanting to cuddle with me or 'eat' he says as soon as I go get him.. and yet that is a pink pinkie.. he likes any kind :) even the kind we steal from oakley.
HE LOVES BYU- this is his first BYU ice cream experience. he shouts rah rah rah ( like the fight song) every time he sees a Y and growls like a cougar.. There will need to be a whole other post about it because it is too cute!
He still loves his friend Oakee and asks for her every day! The last time we were there he needed to go to sleep so he ran into oakleys bed and said BYE MOM! I GO NIGH NIGH WITH OAKEE!
He loves being wrapped up in a towel usually as a fish or a monkey! sometimes he takes a bath just so we will wrap him up and call him our little monkey.
He loves to help in the kitchen.. cutting things, stirring in the pot he calls it 'turn turn' this was right after i had scrubbed and mopped the floor.. literally 2 minutes after.
His best bud Oakee,
He loves to visit dad at work and play dr. he calls his stethoscope a 'bum bum' because that is the sound that your heart makes, he listens to my heart beat and the babes everyday!
He is just cute!
Seriously tho.. could you get any cuter!
Lisa you are a great mother and Max is who he is in large part because of you! Don't you dare sell yourself short! He is too adorable! I love his wave on the tricycle. Just let him come spend a week with us. We might give him back.
ReplyDeleteLis, he is TOO cute! You're just the most darling little family. So excited for the new one to come along!
ReplyDeleteI love this post! Max really is the cutest boy. Love the pictures and video and knowing all these little things that make Max who he is. I wish I was around to know him better!!
