Max is getting so big and amazing us every single day. He is starting to show some interest in crawling and pulling up. Along with the amazing things he is doing he has also started screaming when he gets upset which hopefully won't last too much longer, we don't encourage it!

Hello Family and Friends!

We hope you all are enjoying the summer as much as we are! Max loves being outside so we go on about two walks a day! Very good exercise for Mom and Dad! Last Saturday we went to Mountain Grove to visit with Nick's family. Nick's mom had foot surgery but seemed to be doing well! Max enjoyed showing off for his grandparents! He really loves showing off in general!

His newest "trick" is giving snuggles. He has always snuggled a little bit but now if you snuggle him and then ask for "some snuggles" he snuggles you back! It melts my heart everytime! Nick and I are so blessed to have such an increadible little boy! Nick and I are enjoying Max so much that we look forward to seeing if the Lord has any other children planned for our future and what they will be like!

Here are some pictures from this week!

Wow, I have been intending to do this blog since Tuesday and I am just now getting around to it. Ahh life with a 7 month old! It is wonderful, but everyday is a new adventure! Our family spent Memorial Day weekend in Troy with the Powell''s. So much fun, as always! Max had a great time and was totally content being snuggled by his grandparents and Auntie M all weekend. Coming home and getting back to normal was definetly an adjustment! My mom and sister came down yesterday to attend a conference today so we got to spend yesterday shopping in Branson, Max and the girls, Nick had to work. Max loved it. He got two new pairs of shoes and he was so excited. As soon as we put them on his feet he started bouncing around and showing off. He definetly knew he was getting something new! And of course his grandma had to get him a few outfits to match the new shoes! We all had a great time! And we even got to see Aunt Teri working at her new store at the Landing, Justice! Here are a few pictures from Memorial Day.
