THE MALL! Yep, the mall! And I walked, and walked and walked! Boy did I walk...and wow did I get a lot of attention! :)
So many people staring, oohing and aahing and several people commented that I was the "sweetest child ever!" We met a lot of wonderful people and many were very encouraging. (We also had a lot of stares too, but that's ok...they were probably just jealous how cute I am with my walker!)
Momma says today was truly one of the best days ever! She was sooooooo proud of me and was amazed how determined I was to keep walking. Several times she picked me up because she thought I was finished, but I quickly let her know that wasn't the case. I was very clear with my complaints until she put me down with the walker again! And off I would go!
It's like I've been doing this for years...
Most of the time I am very happy and smiley when I am walking, but sometimes I have to really focus on what I am doing.
What'd you say Momma?Oh yea, I know...I'm very impressive. Heard that about 10 times already. But sure, you can say it again (and again and again and again!)
I'm going to take just a quick break Momma.
And now a little window shopping. Momma, anything you need?
(Max has a dominant side so he tends to push his walker over to the left and he ended up going into stores and walls quite often. And of course he created a traffic jam occasionally too, but everyone was understanding.)
Gotta go now. I got places to go, people to see and things to do. Catch you later!

you have me in tears it's amazing. I am soooooooo happy and proud of you both..I can't wait to see you walk in person.
Unbeliveable, Maxwell! Those starers were just looking at what a beautiful mother and son. Be sure to take a break from walking periodically so Mommy can rest. :)
Love you,
"Auntie" Mary
WAY TO GO MAX!!!! I am sure all those people were staring because they couldnt get over how great and wonderful you are!!
Keep up the great work,
Crystal and Eva
So, that's just how amazing Mighty Max is...I'm not able to check the blog for a few days and when I do I find out you're walking!! How incredible! Way to go, kiddo!
Max, it's hilarious that you can't get enough of it. You're probably thinking, "Finally, I check out all this stuff that I just had to wonder about before. How liberating!"
Go, Max, Go!
Ah a dream come true- a shopping buddy! Congratulations Max! You are amazing! Every time I check on you guys there is even more amazing things happening! Keep it up- I love reading such good news!
Loved the pictures! Reminds me of Cameron in the mall when he was learning with his walker. It's such a great and safe place to practice. Before you know it he'll be walking out of it!
Love,
Rebecca
Cameron and Nathan's mom
What a cutie you are. I would have stared at you too, but that is because I know how cute and amazing you are. :). Keep up the good work, both of you.
Hugs and Kisses,
Diane and Alex
Congrats, Max and Amy. You are doing super, Max. We are praying everyday for you both.
Max, if I haven't told you already, YOU ARE ONE HANDSOME FELLA! And if I was at the mall that day I probably would have stared too. Just because you are so cute! Amy, i can see why you say that sometimes he does so well that you forget just how fragile he really is. He sure looks super healthy in the video! I was absolutely amazed when he pulled himself up to the standing position ALL BY HIMSELF. Great walking Mr. Max! Keep on keeping on, buddy!

Way to go, Max!! There's nothing like a day at the mall! Good for your mommy for teaching you that early! :-)
Your accomplishments in the last couple of months are nothing short of amazing. Congratulations!
Hugs,
Leslie and Katie
Yeah!!! (Claps in applause)
Dear Max,
If I saw you in the mall I'd come up to you and give you a big ol smakcer right on those lovely cheeks! I am so impressed with you and your walking. That sure takes alot of strength. Walking the mall is no easy task. Did you get your mommy anything? I bet you got somethng huh? You are quite the man I must say. (Just wonderful pics, Amy)
Shannon :):)
This is so so so exciting!! Wow! it is wonderful to see him on the move, so motivated and getting so strong. I agree, he'll be walking out of it in no time.
And Amy, way to go. you're amazing. I am praying for you.

Max, you totally rock!!! I bet you collected a whole bunch of new fans at the mall. Wish Libby and I had been there to see you in person. We're super proud of you!
