Happy Halloween!!

I know it's early but I will post pictures as they come in and as Halloween is later this week.  On Saturday, we met some of Max's friends out at the zoo and one of Mom's college friends tagged along with.  It was great to get together with Renee as she has two young boys of her own!  She always has good advice!

 Love this one :) <3

Halloween was a rainy, gloomy, blustery night in Fort Wayne!  At my parents house we only had three trick or treaters!  Two of which were Max's cousins, Luke, and Katie.  Max couldn't keep his eyes off of Luke!

Month number 4!

Sorry the for delay with Max's month 4 post.  We have been experiencing this known "thing" called month 4 sleep regression.  Max was doing great sleeping "through" the night and then suddenly he stopped and has been getting up 3, 4, 5 times a night!  It has definitely taken a toll on me as a Mommy!  We are finally back down to only waking twice a night so it is a step in the right direction.
Max has had an enjoyable month!  He has been getting out a lot on play dates and field trips.  We continue to meet weekly with his friend Charlie at the parks and lunch dates with Frankie and Ellie.  It is so fun to see all of the babies grow as they are all so different!  Max continues to enjoy swinging at the park, being in his bouncer, and newly assembled walker.
This month Max constantly has his hands in his mouth, is grasping and holding toys and objects, smiling, giggling, blowing "raspberries."  He continues to tolerate tummy time but is still not his favorite but Mommy enforces at least 30 minutes a day.

At the pediatrician this month Max weighed 18 pounds 4 ounces (92%) and was 26.75 inches long (99%).
Like father like son
 Go Tigers!

 Happy 4 Month, Max!

Special Guest Blogger...

So now that Summer has turned to Fall, Max is currently experiencing his first cold, Mia has been busy comforting the little guy, so I decided hijack the blog and post an update over the hectic last few weeks.

Overall Max is a fairly chilled about guy, here he is wearing some shades and sleeping in a park...


Max got "kidnapped" by his uncle and I to watch the Lions game at a Lions friendly bar, however Mia arrived, took him home and the Lions ended up losing.


We've been doing all kinds of walks, he's even out of the carrier and into the big stroller. He went with Kyla and I to the dog park, but the turned out better for Kyla more than anyone else, thanks to the surprise dog pool that had been added.



In September, we had the big wedding with Matt and Steph.  Grandma Dragan visited to help babysit, but Max got to meet all of his relatives and even get a photo with the beautiful bride and handsome groom.  But after the festivities Max was pretty cashed out on Sunday.




Still loves his tummy time, his Japanese-speaking, animatronic Pooh Bear, hamming it up for the camera and his swings at the park.
