Can you believe that Maxwell is already one month old?? Where does the time go? He is definitely bigger, and he seems so much less fragile to us than he did on the day that we brought him home. It is amazing how one's perspective changes...by comparison, cousin Sophia seems ready for college to us!
Yesterday was also our five year wedding anniversary! That also seems quite reliant on perspective; if we think about how much our lives have changed since we've been together, five years seems too little, but if we think about how fast time has passed since we've known each other, well, five years seems too long. From that perspective, it seems like the wedding just happened!
I wonder what the next five years will bring?
We celebrated with a steak dinner on the grill, Carrie made a wonderful orzo salad and steamed broccoli! (Which some people say makes your baby tooty, but our baby is already tooty so we weren't too worried!) We also made a trip to Ritters, where Carrie got her favorite: Lemon Italian Ice layered with vanilla custard!
After supper, little Max gave us the most wonderful present ever and slept long stretches through the night!
We are just having the best time with our little dude and every now and then have to pinch ourselves to prove that we aren't dreaming. Carrie let me sleep some this morning, and I returned the favor in the afternoon. Max just sacked out on his daddy for about an hour, every now and then burrowing his little head and body a little closer, making sighs and "coos"...
Too bad he isn't more cute.
I added a video, but for some reason my sidebar appears to be scrambling old videos. If you can't wait for me to figure out what the problem is, visit chubbycello on youtube and you'll find the latest there.
More photos are a-comin'.
