one year older, and wiser too...

happy birthday, to YOU!

last tuesday i took max to his one year check-up. he passed with flying colors!

length: 29.5 inches--41.94 percentile
weight: 18.21 pounds--2.03 percentile
head circumference: 18.3 inches--54.17 percentile

so...he may or may not still be in the second percentile but the doc isn't too concerned. since his head and body are growing, he is pretty sure it's all just genetics.

some of max's favorite things include:

.walking while holding onto our finger.
.playing with the bike pump.
.taking the magnets on and off the fridge.
.being extreeemly clingy to his parents.
.peeking out the front window so he can see the neighbors dogs, charlie + ralphie.
.being the pickiest eater on the planet.
{any ideas on what to feed our teeny tiny boy???}
.flipping through his favorite books, including 'bear snores on' and 'goodnight moon'.
.club crackers.
.playing peek-a-boo and clapping.
.pulling every single tupperware out of the drawer and flinging it on the kitchen floor.

we love you maxwell! thanks for being such a wonderful son, and making this past year the best we've ever known. love you! xoxo.
