What's up?

We'll post some pictures later, but wanted to give you a glimpse at what's going in our house right now.
First, of course, it's all about Max. I think we've finally figured out a routine for the evenings & mornings which makes things go a bit smoother. Max generally wakes up between 5:45 and 6:30. Once I'm out of the shower we head downstairs and he plays on his mat until Chris comes down to feed him. We're all out the door around 7:30 - Chris takes Max to "school" and we head to our workplaces.
After work, Chris gets Max and when we all get home it's time for Max to have a small nap. After nap time it's dinner, bath @ 8:30 and then bedtime by 9 or 9:30.

Max is rolling over. We know it's only a matter of time before he really figures out he has caused himself to roll over - right now he always seems a bit surprised that he is in a different position. He is also figuring out the connection between things in his hands, and his mouth. He works very hard to try to get his pax (that's our word for pacifier) into his mouth and hasn't had much success because it keeps flipping on him, but other toys seem to cooperate a bit better. His favorite thing to chew on is still his own hand - he will make a great party trick one day when he puts his whole fist in his mouth. When he's not chewing on his fist, he likes to suck his first two fingers (just like I did as a kid).

Weeks 14-15

Here are the latest pics. Max turned 3 months old on the 5th, already a quarter year. It's gone by so fast, guess that's what happens when you live in the parent vortex. We are amazed at how much he has changed. Max is holding his head up more now, and is quite the conversationalist. He is also smiling a lot, especially when he first sees or hears one of us. He has also started day care and is doing great. He seems to adjusted to it quickly and easily.


Enjoy the pics.
