growing up

This weekend I was trying to accomplish some yardwork and Max was more than happy to entertain himself for a bit. Awesome!

He loves this book (Knuffle Bunny...recommended by our dear friend Eva) and just sat in the doorway to our backporch enjoying each and every page.

Every time I looked over, I was overwhelmed with joy and pride at my handsome lil' man...he is growing up. And I am delighted with every new milestone we are reaching!

(Notice the nose? Yep, he fell at the playground and got a big scrape. Quite cute actually! Viv, maybe he thought your scraped nose was so cool, he just had to have the same!)




Then later that afternoon, we were cleaning his room. When he spotted the fun underwear (bought it last summer when I was convinced we were ready for potty training...oops!), he wanted to put them on. And sure enough, we were changing them two minutes later and then another pair two minutes later and another and another. He thought it was great fun. :)

But in between getting changed, he sat and enjoyed his Knuffle Bunny book. Very cute moment!


Just love how he is so engaged with his book...his cute blue watch...and his fun underwear. Adorable!

I love the photo of Max reading Knuffle Bunny soooo much. Now if we could just get Max and Viv together, they'd enjoy their scraped-nose reading fest!

Okay... so I've missed a TON... and he's as cute as ever and changing so much!

That reading, watch-wearing, underwear donning little dude is TOO much! :-) So stinkin' cute!

Love your new park, so cool about soccer and that scraped nose makes you look so tough, Max!
