Sweet Baby Boys!

My baby brother is growing so fast! He is starting to push up really high on his tummy! He likes playing with toys now, is chewing on things, drooling lots and finally started to like car rides as of last week! We're so happy when he doesn't cry in the car and we can hear the music.
I wrapped my brother up in this blankie.
I like to be a diaper baby when Max is a diaper baby!
I've been taking really long naps lately and Mommy sometimes has to wake me up so I don't sleep too long. Mommy caught me on camera right before I woke up this day. I love sleeping with all my animals, especially "Baby Elephant." When I wake up from my naps, I am really sweaty and my pillow is usually soaking wet from sweat. Daddy said it was the same for him when he was little.
"It's Good to Be Max!" - our favorite shirt from Auntie, Uncle and Connor.
We went to Michael's birthday party over the weekend. Reid, Michael and I loved playing on these bouncy "horsies"!
Yum! We had chocolate cake too and I got to sit by the birthday boy, Michael.
Mommy and Daddy went to a gala over the weekend. We got to play with the Beyers!
Kisses for Max from Cousin Connor!

Big Boy Bed, Tumbling, Auntie Sarah & More!

Here's one of my favorite things to do lately, I pile up a bunch of toys on Max while he is in the swing or on the floor. He doesn't seem to mind, my brother is a good sport!
Mommy and diaper baby!

GG and BIG EYES!
Another cute one of GG and my brother. GG and Poppy came to play with us so Mommy and Daddy could have a Valentine date!
Last Wednesday on my brother's 3 month bday, I decided it was time for me to sleep in my big boy bed!!! I was getting ready to go up for my nap and had just watched Sid the Science Kid. My mommy turned off the TV and said it was nap time and I said, "I want to sleep in my big boy bed like Sid!" From then on, I've never looked back. I'm sleeping in my big boy bed for all my naps and at night. Sometimes I get really worried that my animals are going to "drop". But so far, they have all stayed in my bed (all 14 or so of them) and I haven't fallen out either!
I've been doing a tumbling class this winter with some buddies. Here's me on the bar.

And climbing the ropes...
And going across the balance beam with friends Cooper & Reid
Here's another day when I decided to pile toys up on Max (and suck boogies out of the baby doll like Mommy has been doing to Max because he has had a cold and cough)
Jammie boys!
I love hanging out with my brother!
Auntie Sarah came all the way from Chicago to visit me and Max! I LOVED getting to play with her, she is so much fun!
Auntie Sarah and Max!

She brought me these Curious George books and I loved it when she read them to me!

Max is 3 Months!

And I'm wishin' for summer! I got out all my swim trunks the other day and put them on with my snow boots!
Mommy and I made this froggie hat together. I love to jump around like a froggie, my Daddy taught me how.

Baby Max is 3 months old! He weighed 13 lbs. 9.6 oz and was 24 1/2 in long at his appointment today. He had to get 2 little shots in his legs. I told him it would be ok. He was so brave!

Curing Cabin Fever

I love pushing Max around in my toy stroller! Max likes it too. He's always very content to take a spin with me around the house. He's almost getting too big to fit in the stroller, though.
We had a HUGE blizzard last week! It snowed around 13 inches. Daddy and I got some good shoveling in. We didn't leave the house for a couple days and even Daddy got to stay home from work one afternoon and the next morning!

We finally got to go out and we went to an art class. I made a cute little heart cup for Valentine's Day. It is going in the hot, hot oven and then we will get to pick it up. I can't wait to drink hot chocolate out of my new cup I made!
I went over to Reid's house for a pizza party and we got to decorate Valentine cupcakes!
This is Baby Max's new favorite position. He's trying really hard to roll from his back to tummy. (He can already roll from tummy to back.) He arches his back and twists his head - he's getting so close to being able to do it!
My baby brother is so cute and I tell him so all the time!
Mommy and I did a special project today. We made these lollipop Valentines for our friends!
