Four months with Max


Right now Max is sitting next to me having a cup of hot tea. He keeps asking me "what was that noise?", for every single thing he hears. He is so inquisitive and now that his language has developed, he has a lot of questions. I cannot believe that four months have gone since we first met this little guy. He has really changed a lot and does not even look like the same child. He has grown a lot - all over! I was looking at his sandals yesterday - the same ones we brought to China with us and were huge - and they are starting to look small! He is a fun kid and loves to be in the water. My mom has squirt bottles at her house and both of the kids LOVED them - so I got some too. The pictures are of Max squirting Daddy - you can almost hear him laugh by looking at the pictures. He has the most infectious laugh. He and McKaden and doing better at playing together - I think a lot of it was language struggle for him. We are still encouraging him to start and finish his words and hope that will improve. He is a great eater and we have found little he won't eat. We have a rule in our family that our kids what we eat - rarely if ever do they get different food than us. We have found that our kids will eat about anything and LOVE spicy food. Max seems to enjoy everything that McKaden has and really wants to be just like her. We find them playing ponies together and building lego's. We are so grateful for this little guy and what he has added to our family!

4 months went by so fast. I can't even remember a time before Max was here. What a precious gift to your family! (and your friends)
We love you Max!
