Go Away Germs!

I have strep throat.  That means I can't kiss and hug on the baby for 24 hours.  

That stinks.  

Max doesn't think much of Mama being sick either.

Max is "talking"

We like to pretend that Max can talk.  Here is Max saying what we think is baby.

Winter Wonderland...sort of

Winter has come to Kansas City. Max experienced his first snow on Thursday. It was beautiful and only about 2 - 3 inches so there were no travel problems. He wasn't very interested and I didn't take him out in it because I was being an overprotective mommy who doesn't want her baby's cold and cough to get even worse. Now we are getting ice (yuck) and hoping that it doesn't rain/ice as much as they are predicting. Ice can very easily = no power, which isn't much fun for anyone. So for now, lets enjoy some video of Max (I've been told by numerous people that I haven't been updating enough) and hope that our winter wonderland stays wonderful.

9 Months and a Few Days

Someday Max...

You will rake the leaves for us... your dad and I look forward to that day.


But for now I guess we will settle for you looking cute in the leaves we raked.

3 New Things for Max

Max met a friend in the mirror. He thinks he is quite handsome and I think he is right!

We got a tree in our front yard to celebrate the year of the little man's life.

We had a WONDERFUL visit with my cousin Sara. He was quite taken with her, he loves all beautiful women! Max can't wait till he gets to see his Sara again!
