Schools, Pools, Naked Babies, OH MY!

I started teaching my first graders again this week. It was a good week and Max has been a total champ in the mornings. He wakes up pretty early (sometimes as early as 5:30) but he is usually happy to lay in his crib watching his Fisher Price Rainforest or his Winnie the Pooh Mobile for a long time while I get ready. Then he loves to play with my wet hair while he takes his bottle! Then we end our morning time together by dancing and being silly. He is a pretty happy little guy.
This weekend we bought a baby pool for him. We really wanted one of the hard, plastic ones but we could never find one. So, while at Target I found a fun baby pool on sale. While it wasn't what we had in mind, I think Max was pretty okay with it!

Max's 5 Month Pictures

We went to the mall yesterday and had an unplanned photo shoot at the Picture People... bad idea for mom's wallet, good idea b/c the pictures are adorable. Click on the link to check them out Maddox the Great

5 Months + 1 week

Maddox with Dad 5 months,1 week ago (give or take a day).


Maddox with Dad 1 week ago.

He is getting so big, which is great. It is so neat to see all of his growth but it also makes me a little sad. I will go back to work in 2 weeks and I know that with life getting hectic, time is going to FLY by even faster than now. Before I know it he will be 18 and leaving home (I know, I know, a little melodramtic but SO true)!

Okay, I can take a hint...

Here are pictures of Mr. Max swimming, please ignore the chubby white girl that is with him!
