Wreaking Havoc

All of you know me as this sweet little baby that never does anything wrong . . . well, think again! As I get better at moving around and pulling myself up, I just can't help but pull everything else down. This week, I pulled down books, CDs, electronics, office supplies, even wine bottles! It's so funny to watch Mommy and Daddy chasing me around trying to maintain a pristine apartment.

Here are some of the other highlights from the week:
-- went to Denver to visit Grandma and Grandpa (they love me so much)
-- started to crawl up a flight of stairs (Mommy doesn't believe I made it up 3)
-- noticed my shadow (I can't seem to catch it)

Life is getting fun! Hope yours is too!

Where in the World is Max Amar?

It's been a busy two weeks full of weddings, travel, good food, and good friends . . . here are the highlights:

-- went to San Francisco for Kate and Jon's wedding . . . got to takemy first boat ride around Alcatraz and under the Bay Bridge.

-- went to Boston for Mariah and Gregory's wedding . . . too cold todo anything there but at least I can say I saw Boston from the car.

-- started real crawling (rather than lunge-style crawling)

-- started pulling myself up to a standing position (sadly, I have no idea how to get down yet)

--started pulling myself to a sitting position (I don't like to staythere long though!)

-- ate lots of tasty foods including asparagus, sweet potatoes,butternut squash (the foods I'm supposed to eat) and some even tastierfoods like spinach-artichoke dip, french fries, and refried beans (the foods Mommy and Daddy used to keep me quiet at restaurants)

-- turned 7 months old on 2/19 (still no big parties though)

It's a pretty good life . . . I hope you are all having as much fun as I am!
