Oatmeal!

Dear Amelia and Max -

Since I am so tardy on your 4 month appointment (its tomorrow!) We decided to go ahead with the Oatmeal without talking to your pediatrician. I looked back at Amelia's oatmeal experience (another reason I love blogging - HISTORY!) and it was right around 4.5 months. 

So, last Sunday...Max, you had your first indulgence of oatmeal. It. Was. Messy!

Your sleeping pattern hasn't really changed...you are already a great sleeper. I think you look forward to something besides formula :)

I'll update with stats Wednesday from tomorrow's late 4 month appointment.

Love,
Mom

Meg + Ben 8/4/2012

Dear Amelia and Max -

It is one of the greatest love stories ever. They had crushes on each other since they were in elementary school. He finally asked her out at Billy and Pam's wedding; now they are NEWLYWEDS!!! 

Our day started off getting our hair and make up done with Aunty Pam at Blast! You looked like a princess!!

 Then it was time for the ceremony (as you can see, my curls did not hold!) It was PERFECT out. High 70's and the sun was shining!
Uncle Billy and I handed out programs. The ceremony was in Amy and Ross' front yard!

She-she picked you guys up at 5pm and took you back to Glamma and Cookies house for the evening. 

The rest of the evening was spent socializing and dancing in Mayer's back yard!! 

Blake and Jill were the only cousins not able to make it so I hard their faces printed out so they could enjoy the fun as well! 

 Congrats Meg & Ben!!!

Love,
Mom

Max: 4 months!

Dear Amelia and Max -

Max ~ Today you are 4 months old. You are the most chill baby ever. You hardly ever cry, and when you do...its just a little fuss because you are hungry or tired. We put you to bed around 730p and you've been sleeping until 6ish. You are giggling on a daily basis and smile ALL THE TIME!! 

Your sister makes you smile and laugh the most...she loves to call you buddy. She told me yesterday that you are her BEST FRIEND. She loves you very very much.

My little Mister...you are the most precious boy in the world.

Love,
Mom

Slip n slides and giggles!

Dear Amelia and Max -

Yesterday, we headed out to Aubrey, Jeff and Emery's house for a late lunch with the family! Uncle Doodie made a SWEET slip n slide! I tried it out first but didn't make it very far...Uncle Doodie made it a lot father than me. 

Amelia, you went down the slide 100 times. You had a blast! 

When we got home, Max put on a giggle show for us! So fun :)

Love,
Mom

Rolling and Laughing!

Dear Amelia and Max -

Last week, Max rolled over 3 times one morning! You are on the move big boy!!!

AND! You laughed for the first time. I've been trying to catch it on video but I'm always too late. You have been laughing more and more often! 

Love,
Mom
