Max getting into stuff (but notice he hasn't let go of the TV remote in his hand)
Brittany took Max and Landen shopping with her. This was Max's first time sitting in a shopping cart like this. She sent me this picture of them trying on pumpkin top headbands.
Happy Day! Playing with Brittany's cell phone.
Even better! TV remote in one hand and cell phone in the other.
Max's sippy cup is the pink one (don't judge - there were limited color choices at the store). Landen's is the one in his hand. He quickly switched when Landen's became available, hoping to find some juice in Landen's.
Screaming
Video - Max was trying to scream like his cousins. I found it funny.
I was playing games with him and "trying" to stop him when he tried to eat his puffs.
Curled up sleeping
"Huh mom? I'm more interested in the TV."
We got our new blinds installed. A few days after we moved in, we realized that the blinds weren't the size that we had ordered. We had ordered, and paid for, 2 1/2 in blinds but they installed 2 in blinds. It may seem like a minor deal but it was a good deal more to have the 2 1/2 in and I wanted the extra light that the larger size let in.
Tender moment - Max sleeping on his dad.
We went bed shopping for a new king size bed for the master bedroom so we could move our current queen size bed into the guest bedroom. A furniture store is NOT a great place to keep a 1 year old entertained.
Looking at the pictures of Uncle Alex's family (GREAT present - thank you Tawny!)
It always makes him happy to look at the pictures.
Along with bed shopping comes mattress shopping. This was more fun for Max until he fell off a bed in one of the stores (Peter caught him) and then started crying because it scared him. We got dirty looks from the other customers because they didn't see Peter catch him and thought we just let our kid fall off the bed. That was nice.
Back to the furniture store where we found the courtesy cookies and plied Max with them.
He knocked out afterwards and we were able to enjoy almost an entire meal at Outback Steakhouse.
Video - Max being silly
Max is getting better at walking. On the 18th, he took 12 steps at a time!
Other things about Max from this week:
- He will walk a little with you while holding onto just one hand.
- He screams and throws a little tantrum when he doesn't get his way.
- He sneaks into both the pantry and the diaper bag to find treats.
- He is a really picky eater lately. Some days he likes a particular food and the next day he doesn't.
- When we try to feed him he turns his head and doesn't even want to try it. We have to force a bite into his mouth so he can taste the food and then sometimes he will then eat the food.
- He has a funny quiet scream.
- He can whisper.
- He stacked blocks for the first time. I've been working with him for a long time trying to get him interested in doing that and he hasn't care at all about it. So I was pretty pleased!
