I just took part in one of the most beautiful weddings I've been to....my sister Jeni and Chad's wedding! I had to share some photos on our blog. So here you go!

Amazing Max ~ ll months old
Time passes so quickly. Like when you have a baby and the next thing you know he's almost the Big One. Or like this morning...
When I placed him on the floor in the living room to play with some toys. I literally sprinted to go change clothes since I am running late to take Maddie to preschool. I come back out into the living room and as I scan the room for Max I notice the gate at the top of the stairs is moving. I'm thinking "No way did my baby just crawl up all those stairs all by himself!" I sprint up the stairs to find him playing contentedly with his toys, looking at me like "What's the big deal?" Crazy baby! He must have made a mad dash for those stairs the moment I turned to go into my room because it took me about 1 minute to get changed! I'm just relieved that he didn't decide to try to make the journey back downstairs by himself.

"Look mom! I'm a Beautiful Butterfly!"
Maddie discovered the bag I had laid out to take to the Green Baby Resale. This was her Halloween costume from when she was 1. Apparently she's not ready to part with it just yet! Isn't she cute?!
New Milestone by Max
Last week I entered Max's room to see him standing up in his crib. I wasn't shocked because I think Maddie did this around 9 months old also. One little problem though...he doesn't go to sleep as easily as he use to. Before all I had to do was lay him down with his paci and he'd be out for the night or for his nap. Now he immediately flips onto his tummy, pushes himself up to a sitting position then uses the rails to hoist himself to a standing position. I've even resorted to using the swing for his nap times just so he can get the rest he so desperately needs (and mama can too!)
