Max Meets His Cousins
Today Max's cousins and Aunt Sherri
arrived after a long drive from North Carolina.
The girls had good practice for their little brother who
will be born this September. If you ask the two year old
Lily what her brother's name should be she'll tell you
Chuck-E-Cheese, while Alaine prefers Jack Smith or Jack Brown.
They are both so much fun and always entertaining!

One Month Old!

I can't believe it has already been a month since Max was born.

It seems that he is growing and changing every day.

Weekend at Zach and Becky's
Sam, Max and I went to visit Zach and Becky for the weekend.
Max had one more uncle to meet (Tom). Zach, Sam, and Tom actually
babysat Max for a while while Becky and I went shopping.

Today Heidi, a nurse from the hospital came out to the house for a home visit. She weighed Max and he is now 6lbs, 15.5 oz. - just shy of 7. Sam got back from his internship in Nevada so Max got to meet another one of his uncles. Sam brought him a cool outfit from Baby Gap with a zebra on it.

Today was Max's first day at Grandma's daycare.
He had a great time. Hailey especially liked him - she really
kept him entertained.



Hey Grandpa, you're actually smiling for a picture

Hanging out at the shop with Dad and meeting Borden.
We're so excited about meeting Borden's future brother or
sister next year - another little friend for Max to play with!

Always so sleepy.

Today was Max's first day going to the shop. Kerry worked fire today at the DNR, so it was just Max and I at work. He did really good since he mostly just sleeps. We later went by my mom's daycare to say hello to the children .

He loves the pacifier and his hands

This morning Max went for his one week check up. He's already back up to birth weight and it hasn't even been a week! Dr. Benson said some babies take a couple weeks to get back up here so he's doing great. Uncle Zach and Aunt Becky were on their way back home so we met up with them in Brainere for pizza. Max and I then did some shopping and let me say it takes about twice as long with a baby. I soon realized that there is not room for a baby seat in a cart full of groceries so I purchased a sling for Max which came very handy. He just curled up and was very content in it.
