Foot action

Stretching out my legs and playing with my feet are my new favorite activities

Mommy's new toy :-)

We both love the Ergo - can't you tell?

Visits from all my Peoria Peeps!

what's up?!

Morning pictures from Mimi

Mimi usually sends daily pictures to Mama at work so she gets her Max dose :)

Just like Uncle T

When Tom was little he use to carry around a bunny...not sure where he got it from. This one is from Max's Great Auntie Christine who lives in Germany.

Chillin!

Chris, Maxer & Auntie Wee Um, yes, Mom?

Max is able to be content for much longer periods of time now, as long as he has something to look at.

Hand Eye Coordination!

Max started grabbed things last week! I have another cute picture that I can't load from work, but I'll try to do it this weekend.

Happy baby!

Stuffed doggies make me laugh

Field Trip!

Yesterday Mimi took me on a train ride to have lunch with Mama at work. Mama got to show me off to everyone - I didn't even cry!

Bath Time Fun!

Cheer up, Mommy!

I started back to work on Wednesday, after 12 weeks of being a stay at home Mama. It has been tough, but a little bit easier than I anticipated. Mimi sends pictures to me at work to cheer me up.

Max wishing me a good day on my first day back

I don't need no stinkin' carseat!

In other news...I went to the doctor the other day and asked if I could put Max on the baby scale. Drum roll please...14.5lbs!!!

Videos!

I took some short, 30 second videos on my cell phone today...lets see if they work!
