Pumpkins!

On the 28th, we finally got around to decorating/carving pumpkins.  Sure it was a little late and meant we didn't get to enjoy them forever, but at least we did it.  Peter actually carved his. 

But first:  Here's a short video to show how Max is doing on his walking.  He's doing such a good job.  He is getting to be so fast!  Sorry for the abrupt ending, I realized he was starting to poop and thought that wouldn't be a great thing to capture on video.  :)

Buddies

Max got to finger paint on his pumpkin.

(These were the only paints I had, I didn't have any true finger paints.)

Yikes!  Don't put your fingers in your mouth.  I'm not sure if those paints are non-toxic! 

My hands are dirty!

All done

The finished product

If he doesn't have a shirt on, he walks around touching his belly button.

Getting into trouble.

Ooh - Frankenstein

Silly boys

I wonder what Maxwell is thinking in this moment... :)

Video - Max is lucky to get to spend time 5 days a week with cousins that love him so much.  They certainly have fun!

The day before Halloween this was all I got to see of Max during lunch - he was asleep the whole time.
