Max’s big week

Max got a tooth (too hard to photograph!) his eyes turned green

And he can sit. Briefly. But don't worry, he still drools like he did when he was my tiny baby.

Fun for Maximilian

New paper-chewing skills

First time swinging! It was a little chillier than he prefers, but still fun 

Dressed us

We all got fancy for James' First Holy Communion 

Success!

Failure!

First Holy Communion

James received his first communion! He is very proud, and so are we

He is *supposed* to have his hands folded but he's waving to his fans

He got to carry In the gifts

Plus actual Eucharist!

Teeth

Lucy's lost two this week! She is beyond excited

Comparison

Lucy

Max

I see it

Everyone!

I couldn't get Tessa to smile (she wanted a fink 🥤) but check out Max's amazing locks, and also Nora's style

After nap

Tessa didn't want me to get her out of bed, she wanted Charlie. (And she wanted to squish her chin like that.) Lucy wanted to hold Max. Owen's fluff just wanted to be included.

Charlie wouldn't get Tessa because our new couches are too comfy

Drool

Max is the drooliest baby ever. You can't always tell because some fabric hides it, but by 10 this morning he looked like this

Blanket

Max is so happy in the morning, but he was cold when I changed his clothes. When I covered him, I got another big smile

Toes!

Here are two favorite activities, multitasked

Big bowl

I bought the biggest bowl Tupperware makes. It's baby-sized!

Max was so confused. "Why am I in a bowl? Are you for sure holding on to me, Dad?" 

Zoo

We went to the zoo, and little Max spent part of the trip in the regular stroller. How has he gotten so big?

Also: Tessa. What a screechy cutie

Bonus: he got a bunny for Easter and it's yummy

Lollipop

It's as big as her head, but look at those happy eyes
