Showing off. ...but Max knew what I was up to all the way across the room. Haha. First (partial) people-food Thanksgiving! All swimmed out and ready for a nap! Cousins! Got some pool time in before dinner. Give it back! Problem fixed with Pop-pop's hat! Sun's too bright! All over the beach... Haha. I see you, Max! ...and surprised this guy! Bealls & Battjers! Pop Pop got to pinch hit on feeding the Max! Knight's helmet. My favorite little king. Pee break! Load 'em up! Roadtrip! Ready to roll out! After seeing the last house, Brett and I took Max for a solo expedition to the bar. Max likes to touch fingers with me because I say BING like a bell each time. haha. Battjer family photo, October 2014! Hand em off to... ...Uncle Brian! Practicing the walking. Max has this poster of Max from Where the Wild Things Are in his bedroom so Brett & Amy.... How cute is this? Tickle him immediately! ...decided that would make a good first Halloween / birthday costume! Laughing along with all the peoples. ...and hit the park at Dupont Circle. Nom nom nom. ...Washington DC to visit this guy a week-shy of his first birthday! ...to show me his peanut butter-covered blueberries. So happy... With each passing line... Adorable! Had a Sunday video brunch with this guy! Showing off his drinking... ...and eatin skills. ...Brett, Amy & Max got an early start on their drive back to DC. Chin-tickles from grandma. Haha. So good. We got up early on Sunday and went out for breakfast in the neighborhood. Is an uncle! Reunited with mom in time for bed! Happy baby! Max had just turned 5 months and can (sort of) sit up on his own if you prop him up in a corner real good. Ta-da! Hey, wait a minute - has this all been a big distraction because my mom is away? By the time we got down there, Max was conked out! ...about an hour down to the waterfront to see all the cherry blossoms. Feeding time. I MADE THIS! Amy got up early on Saturday morning to head to her friend's Bridal Shower, so me and Brett were alone with Max on double Mr. Mom duty for the day. ...but I managed to get a smile pretty quickly! On Friday afternoon I took the bus down to DC to hang out with Max. He was a little shy when I first arrived... Strollerin!
