One...1...One....1

Max man is ONE! We had a little family bash since he had a nasty goopy eye and wasn't feeling on top of the world.  It was fun and he was pretty cute since all the attention was on him.

 

Parx says his favorite thing about Max is that he likes playing with balls

Bridger says his favorite thing is playing hide and seek

 

A little about Max...

First off..Stats:

height: 29.5 inches=36%

weight: 20 lb. 2 oz=31%

head: 47.6 cm(18.74 inches)=88%

He LOVES balls and can throw REALLY well. Great form and everything :)

He's a picky eater. One day he loves something and the next he hates it.

Loves throwing his food/sippy off his high chair

Eats way better if we put food on a fork or spoon

He has 4 teeth

He gives high fives

Loves bath time

He is a master crawler and can stand up in the middle of the room. Not walking.

He gives the sweetest open mouth kisses

He sleeps through the night (only since 2 weeks before he turned 1)

Loves his family. Everyone of us can make him smile and laugh

He is our crankiest kid times one thousand

His scream is PIERCING

He is held 70% of the time due to the piercing screams

He throws his head back and has tantrums already

Still loves the dog water/bowl

He's awesome on road trips and will probably be backwards facing till 2. If he could see me in the car I imagine him yelling and crying the entire time

Very curious and wants to do everything the boys do and go everywhere they go

Freaked out of heights.. doesn't love to be thrown in the air

He's iffy with strangers... love/hate thing

He's had probably 2 babysitters in his life and they had to carry him around everywhere they went. The second they would walk out of a room he would scream (they got a taste of my day to day :))

 I nursed him for a WHOLE YEAR and still do maybe once a day but its ending fast.

 

We love our little fireball SOOO much.  Happy Birthday buddy!

 

Pics of max about 1-2 weeks before and after his birthday and of course the parrrttaayy..

 

 

 

 

 

See how sickly...

 

He sat on the stairs the majority of the time the older boys opened his presents :) We made him help with the balls and he loved them!

Parx made Max a "cube"... wondering what that is? well... its a cube.  Papers stuck together that stood up making a CUBE.  He drew a cute picture of Max and him on the front though!
