Maxie Mooms

Max is 2. My perfect baby turned two. Turned into a TERRIBLE two. Max is throwing tantrums. Throws himself on the floor. Flails his body, throws his arms around, hits things but only makes sure you are watching first. But when he's not doing that...

The only word Max can say clearly and knows what it means is "Tickle Tickle". Which is something he is VERY and LOVES to do. He also love "go high" and likes to touch the ceiling, and "again" for just about everything else he loves.

Max loves peek-a-boo.

Max LOVES to wrestle. If Im on the floor for any reason, he's usually dog piling on top of me. Makes my workouts a little difficult, doing push-ups with 30 lbs sitting on top of me.

Max is also a cuddler but not as frequent as Jack. But when he does want to, he makes good and sure that you know it. He wont let you get up and sits very very still. He'll sit there for an hour and not wiggle at all.

Max's favorite thing to do is be chased. He runs crazy all over the house. And loves it most when Daddy chases him and he hides behind me.

Max is happy. ALWAYS happy. Great big grin and curly hair, and those big blue eyes, who doesnt love him.

He doesnt give kisses very often, but when he does they are so sweet.

Max is very content to play by himself and usually on a different level of the house. He does get excited when Tangled comes on though. He doesnt watch the TV hardly at all. He loves cars and TRAINS. LOVES TRAINS. And balls.

Any food is his favorite food and he is ALWAYS hungry. The twins will finish first and then Max will stand up and move to Jacks seat and finish his dinner and sometimes Claires as well. No wonder he is as big as they are (does not bode well for the body flailing.) If I cant get dinner on the table fast enough he's usually pushing on my legs or he goes straight for the fridge and will eat anything he can find. Usually grapes or some fruit in a bowl I dont mind him grazing. The other day he brought me the carton of eggs downstairs. Crazy boy.

Max LOVES being outside. Nothing makes him happier then when he can escape. He loves running and throwing balls and LOVES the sidewalk chalk. But his all time favorite is the Lake. That boy comes alive at the lake. He cant get out of his carseat fast enough and we have to take him kicking and screaming when we leave. Nor can he stay out of the water. His feet inevitably get wet. Throwing rocks into the water is his favorite. And while we arent at the lake, he either plays in my plants outside after it rains and they are full of water, or inside he'll stand on the toilet in the bathroom and play in the sink.

Max also likes teeth. Im convinced he'll be a dentist. He giggles when I brush his, he likes to look in my mouth and he says "awwww" while I do it and he runs his fingers along my teeth and likes to feel the retainer I have. Odd obsession but it makes him happy.

Most of all, Max is sweet.
