Cute Pics

Hey, check me out!! I'm cute and I know it.
Our neighbors here in FL - the Iwanoffs got him this outfit. I thought that it was adorable so I had to take a pic of him in it. They are like parents to Chris and I when they are here in FL. So, we like to say that they are Max's NJ grandparents!!

I loved him in this outfit too! I guess I can't help it, I think my son looks good in anything :)

Me and My Aunt Lori

Here is Aunt Lori reading me a bedtime story. She came over Sat night and helped me get ready for bed. I loved it! It was lots of fun spending quality time with her and I enjoyed her helping Mommy get me ready for bed.
Aunt Lori loves me even in a WVU outfit. I don't own a Marshall outfit (where Aunt Lori graduated from) and even if I did I don't think Mommy and Daddy would let me wear it.

I love you Aunt Lori!

Exhaustion

He loves his jumper. More than any toy he has. It's the only time Chris and I can actually set him down for awhile and he's happy. He LOVES boncing. So much so that now when you hold him, he bounces on your lap. So, here he is - exhausted. He bounced for around 1 hr and then just fell out.

Max's battery finally wore out!

Here I am, exhausted as well. Sadly, I often fall asleep with Max in his rocker at night. When he wakes up in the middle of the night to be fed, I often find myself in this position come morning.

My neck hurt after this a lot. I actually walked around work for 24hrs leaned over because I had such a stiff neck.

Only my neck hurts!!

Four Months and a Flashback

Thought that everyone would enjoy seeing the difference in how he has grown without having to backtrack into the older posts4 Months - 16lbs, 23.5 inches
3 Months - 13lbs 13.5oz, 23.5 inches


2 Months - 11lbs, 23.5 inches


1 Month - 9 lbs, 21 inches


As a reminder, he was 6lbs 11oz and 19.5 inches at birth. Not sure why he hasn't grown in length since 2 months but the doctor wasn't worried about it. He is in the 10th percentile for length right now and the 75th for is weight. Looks like he is just expanding width wise. The doctor thinks he is doing great, says I have "high octane breast milk". Max really is a chunky monkey. He has rolled over once from his stomach to his back. We haven't had a repeat performance yet. He has found his hands and everything he touches goes into his mouth. He laughs out loud, makes vowel and consonant sounds and squeals at things he likes. We can't believe how much he has changed.

Pool Time

My swimming pool outfit. Trunks from Aunt Lori and hat from Granny and Papaw Stewart.
First steps in the water.

Blocking the sun from my face.

Enjoying the water in my shades. They are a necessity in FL!

Cute Little Man

Trying to make it somewhere...
I think I will crawl out of the boppy

Wait maybe not, it's kinda fun to lay on

Yeah, I think I'll stay here...just chillin'

Really relaxed now, posing

I loved this little blue polo shirt my parents bought him...one of my favorite outfits for him. He looks so good in blue with his blue eyes.

Yeah, I'm happy!

Marianne's Shower

Marianne looks so pretty - here at the end of her 8th month. Wish we could've caught Max looking at the camera but he was too distracted by everything going on that day.

Max bought Macey a pink glowworm because he loves his so much. My girlfriend from nursing school Kristina got him one and he LOVES it.

Max bought Macey a little pink giraffe rattle / blanket. He has a blue elephant one and he loves to chew on it.

All tuckered out with Aunt Lori. Granny Stewart hanging out too!

Naptime

Just chillin' on my boppy - snoozing away. (go Eers!)

My two boys....all tuckered out

Soapasaurus

Max has a little robe that Nana Stowers bought him. It's a dinosaur and it's called the Soapasaurus. He looks so cute in it. He has really come to love bathtime. I put him in his tub and usually just put it in the shower with me. He loves to kick, splash and play.
