Standing

On Tuesday Max decided he wanted to sit up in bed by Thursday he was standing up. Oh boy, this is going to be interesting.

I also wanted to post a picture of Max with his Grampa John and Great Grandma Hueste. It was her 85th birthday party. AND a picture of Max with one of his BFFs.

So much going on!

Max is almost 8 months old! He is doing so well. He sleeps through the night, eats like a horse and plays until he's exhausted. Let's just hope the next one is that good! If you don't already know Matt and I are expecting our second on November 3. It was a huge surprise to us but we are excited all the same. We find out mid-May if Max is going to have a little brother or little sister.

Max is doing so much so here is a rundown...

He is army crawling. He can't get up on his knees yet but he scoots around until he gets where he wants to go. He also has two bottom teeth! They came in a few weeks ago and I think he has more that are about to break through. He has started eating puffs, num-nums and crackers. Oh yeah, and he can hold his own bottle. He loves feeding himself.

Daddy must lower his bed soon. Max is starting to grab on to the rails/bumper and pull himself up although I think it will take him a bit more strength to get that chubby body up!

We moved into our new house in March. We love it. It is exactly what we wanted with tons of closet space and room. I'm sure we'll be filling it all up very soon.

I hope you enjoy the pictures!

6 month update

Well, it has been way too long since we have posted. We've got a lot to catch you up on.

Max has gotten so big. He is now 6 months old and weighs 19.5lbs. What a big boy! He has had a rough couple of months. He's been sick for a while and ended up spending three days in the hospital with pneumonia. Although he didn't feel well he kept the nurses pretty entertained.

Max has started eating baby food. His favorite are peas and pears. He also loves applesauce and bananas and really doesn't like carrots.

Our little boy is sitting up on his own! He will sit in the floor and play with his toys for a long time. We are sitting by anticipating his first crawl. He is trying so hard but hasn't figured it out yet.

We are just enjoying watching him develop and figure out the World. We are excited to see what comes next. We'll keep you posted.
