Mini-Yogis

I started my Mini-Yogis class this week at the Nest. We didn't really know what it would be like, but it sounded different than Jump and Jive, so Daddy signed us up. The good news is that I got to roll around with and get massaged by a very pretty lady. The bad news is that Daddy was the only sap that fell for a yoga class for babies, so I was the only one in the class! We decided to switch to a class called The Environment, which is supposedly a feast for the senses. Most likely I will be rolling around and getting massages . . .

Here are some other highlights from the week:

-- I went to a first birthday party in Connecticut. There was a dude there with 6 fingers on one of his hands. He gave two thumbs up a whole new meaning!

-- We had another minor (very minor) celebrity experience . . . We were at the Nest (at Yoga) and we saw the lady who plays Margaret on West Wing (Leo McGarry's secretary). She thought I was very cute and wanted me to meet her daughter Shirley and her niece Nadene-- she thought they were the cutest names in the world. I was wondering if they were babies or grandmothers . . .




 

9 Months Old!

Daddy and I went to the Yankees game with some of his teacher friends

and I had a blast (for the most part). All was well and good until
Daddy's friend Lance caught a foul ball in the seventh inning. I was
excited for him at first (you don't catch a foul ball everyday), but
then the dude went nuts-- he started pumping his fist, screaming,
jumping up and down . . . I really wasn't sure what he was capable of
at that point, so I burst into tears, basically inconsolable for the
rest of the game. Every time the Yankees did something good, the crowd
started to cheer, and I started to cry. Maybe I should stick with the
Rockies . . .

Here are some other highlights from the week . . .

-- My new babysitter, Dolly, started this week. Apparently Daddy needs
some time to get a "real job" (personally, I thought I was real job
enough). Dolly is very nice and I'm even willing to let Daddy out of
my site when she is around.

--I started my new class, Jump and Jive. Not much jumping, just a
little bit of jiving, but overall, it was fun. At least this time
there were some other babies that could move around . . .

Hope you are enjoying some nice weather . . .

Love, Max

Immigrants and the Paparazzi

It has been a very exciting week in our neighborhood. Today, we were

walking down the street and all of the sudden a swarm of paparazzi
surrounded us saying "How's the baby, hows's the baby?" I was like,
"uh, fine I guess." Suddenly scrambling from behind us comes Blythe
Danner (Daddy said that's Gwyneth Paltrow's Mom, like I know who
Gwyneth Paltrow is). The paparazzi ran after her and we were left
alone on the street, back in obscurity. Who knows . . . maybe we''
show up in People next week?

Here are some other highlights:

-- we accidentally joined an immigration protest yesterday. We're just
walking down the street and we're swept up by people chanting "We are
America!" They seemed like they meant business . . .

- on a much less exciting note, I learned how to turn my mobile on and
off-- frankly, it has started to get irritating.

-- I tried some new foods this when Daddy took me out to lunch--
roasted peppers (tasty), bufala mozzarella (tasty), marinated olives
(not tasty).

That's is . . . enjoy the beautiful weather!

Love,
Max

Ambidextrous Pincers

I may not know how to say Mama or Dada, but I know that I can use my

thumb and my pointer finger to pick up Cheerios! It takes me an hour
to eat four Cheerios, but they sure are tasty . . .

Here are some other highlights from the week:

-- I loved spending so much time with Mommy before she started her new
job . . . we're so proud of her! She really knows how to bring home
the tofu (haven't tried the tofu yet, but I'm sure it's tasty)

-- We visited the Upper West Side three times this week . . . nice
place, even more Bugaboos, fun playgrounds. I'll go back . . .

-- Went to the swimming pool with Daddy . . . he dunked me twice and I
didn't even cry. I especially liked riding around the pool in the
inner tube. The lifeguard couldn't believe it was only my second time
in the pool . . .

Peace out . . .

Max
