Jeff and I are playing catch up on what Max has been up for the past 2 months. He’s growing so fast, wearing 2T size clothes and size 6 1/2 shoes. He just got a pair of black Chuck Taylors that are the stinkin’ cutest thing. I just need to find some more black shirts to go with them. He’s talking so much, and really understands what we’re saying when we talk to him. An example is tonight, Max was ready for bed, but we needed to clean up the box of trucks…but he was more into playing with them then helping clean up. Mommy took him in the back room and told him that because he was the one that dumped the trucks out, he needed to help clean them up, and that mommy and daddy would love to help…he went right in and helped clean up the trucks by the handful. He’s just such a good listener. Some new words…some might be old news…are Temple, Jesus, blue, pink (his favorite color…), party, potty, guys, shoe, nee nee (daddy taught him what his weenie is…and he calls it nee nee), tubby, peepee, Adee, Bryce, poop, Rylee, Elmo, Ernie, Bert, Manny (his favorite TV show is Handy Manny), Bunny, Toot Toot (his little elephant stuffed animal), ball, outside, yeah (which comes out as ‘da’…we think his Russian) More (sounds like Mow-ee), teeth, and a menagerie of other words. So much fun! We love to go to the zoo, and to the park and play on the big toy slides and swings. Max is a pro at wooden puzzles, coloring, building lego towers, drawing on magna doodles…and erasing and making ‘tato guys’ which is Mr. Potato Head. He especially loves the big red nose that comes with Tato…and pretty much just builds nose guys. It’s magical to watch him build a tall, tall tower with legos, or to watch him stick an arm in the tato, he’s still so little, but just ‘gets stuff’. I don’t know how else to put it. He loves to dance…any time he hears any bit of music, he breaks it down. He can sing E I E I O, and Baa baa black sheep, and can fill in the words to a couple nursery rhymes such as Hey Diddle, diddle and Sing a Song of Sixpence, which happens to be his favorite because the tweet tweet comes down and gets his nose.
We abandoned the bottle (bot-sie) 17 months, and Max goes down great for naps and ni-ni, which means night- night as long as mommy and daddy sing 3 songs about Jesus or Nephi and say family prayer. We love to watch him grow and are amazed at how big he is getting, he’s so grown up. Max is really lucky to have so much time with Grandma and Grandpa Mousser, he loves every minute…it’s never boring around here!

He's sooo big! I laugh... Jack wears 6-12 mo. still, and a 4 shoe. They're total opposites.
