Max sucking his toes!

I have been trying to get this picture for weeks now. Finally!!!

Max on his special blanket

Max was a happy boy today! He loves to play on this blanket which was made just for him by one of our good friend's mother.

Max and David

On Saturday, Max and I visited David, Susse and Thomas. The boys didn't want to sit still for the pictures. We did the best we could!
Max loves to be with his Uncle Thomas and Aunt Susse!

Max and Kajsa's play date

Yesterday Max had Kajsa over for a play date.

Max was happy to share his toys with Kajsa. "Hey Kajsa, look at this!"
Time to floor dance!
"Here, you take this hand and I'll take that hand."

Both ways today!!!

These are for the grandparents! I'm not sure why they start out black like this.

Max's new trick and a little laughter

Out with the old, in with the new

Max no longer likes his bouncer. He pulls himself up by the bar and then gets mad!


Max got a new bed the day we arrived back in Denmark and he's now sleeping in his own room.

Max's cousins from Illinois

Here is Max with his "second" cousins, Cole and Paige. They are the children of my cousin, Terry. We're hoping they visit us in Copenhagen!
In this picture, Max is being held by Debbie(Paige and Cole's mom). He loves to meet his relatives!

Who put that shirt on Max?

Max is wearing this shirt because he loves his Auntie Yvonne and UB(Uncle Bill). Thank you, Yvonne for flying down from North Carolina to see our boy!

The boys had a long day

Max and Daddy wore each other out.

A fun day for Max

Max loves his friends, Kian and Sacha!Thank you to the Cottons for driving over to see us!
Only in Florida can you be in the hot tub in January! No, Thomas is not wearing a t-shirt.

Max and Nora bring in the New Year

For Max's first New Year celebration we went to Atlanta to visit our friends, John and Beth Haynes, and their 1 month old daughter, Nora. The babies fell asleep before midnight and the parents barely stayed awake to bring in the New Year. After we toasted to a wonderful 2008, we went to bed. What a change from last year! Happy New Year to everyone!
