Okay

As cute as Max is, he is an ever bigger troube maker. He likes to scream whenever Lukas is near him just to get him in trouble. He pushes the kitchen chair up to the counter where he climbs up and gets in the candy jar or plays in Simon's water and scares him half to death. He is a fiesty little guy and when he doesn't like the way things are, he'll throw things and hit whatever is in his sight. It's so funny to hear his litle voice when I tell him, "Max, go put that away. Be nice." You'd think he'd cry or scream, but usually what comes out of his mouth is an "okay" with shrunk, defeated shoulders. It's so cute! Okay. Max lay down. Okay. Eat your lunch. Okay. Go get a diaper. Okay. He gets into everything and yesterday got into my sand vase in the upstairs bathroom and there was sand everywhere!!! It was a nightmare to clean up! And the little stinker kept me up all night. I don't know how to break him of his habit of waking up at 3:30 and waking everyone in the house up. I need my sleep, Max! C'mon! Despite it all, one little squeeze from that guy and I'm putty in his hands.

My Sweetie

I find myself kissing Max 100 times a day because he's so cute! I just love his pudgy hands and the way he runs and dances. He really communicates well. He smiles and laughs and my heart just melts. I know he's growing up too fast, so I am enjoying every minute of this stage. He's still innocent and cute, but learning to talk and just being a little man. He has the cutest curl in his hair and he will hug me and give me this sweet little kiss....*sigh* he's got me wrapped around his little finger!

My Little Man

I am so in love with Max right now! I don't want him to ever get bigger. He is just the cutest thing ever! His curly brown hair and that dimple in his cheek. So dang cute!!! He woke up this morning so happy and the first thing he said was, "play date". I don't know why, I don't think he knows what a play date is, but he does watch Blues Clues and he was sleeping with a little puppy that looked like Blue, so maybe that was it. He identifies so many things and speaks so clearly. He has that lisp when he says his s's. Lukas just had a bday, and so he sings "happy birday to you. tcha tcha tcha. happy bday lukas. cha cha cha." then he makes a blowing noise, like he's blowing out the candles. It's adorable. I need to get that on video. And if he's saying two words, he'll pause between the words. Like he'll say "lukas __ shirt" and he'll pronounce every letter. I just love him at this age. He copies Lukas a lot, which can be good and bad, but they are starting to play more together. He can count to ten in english and spanish. It's fun to see how much he picks up on and how much he talks. He's a little man.
