Max is trying his hardest to communicate and is presently aspiring to be Elmo’s biggest fan. He makes his little opinion heard with either a “ESH” (yes) or a violent shake of his head side to side for no. While he’s still a man of few actual words, he is definitely not a quiet little boy. He loves to sing, yell and laugh.
Max really enjoys coloring with crayons these days and is giving kisses. Mostly to his big brother — So sweet!
He’s neat and tidy…likes to wipe his hands and tray clean after a meal and will help pick up when he’s done playing.
Max’s Favorite things: The beach, kissing his reflection, piggy back rides, raisins, Elmo clips on YouTube and the Avenger’s Theme Song.
Least favorite things:Â Meat. This child will not even put a piece of poultry, beef, pork to his lips. I try weekly, and after a fight, I fail each time to get him to even try it.
Favorite past-time activities:Â Reading “big boy” books, waterplay, coloring and stickers! He absolutely loves to sit with a sheet of stickers, peel them off and stick them on the dog, the furniture, me….whatever he can find!
Current toddler tricks:Â Finally waving bye-bye!! Feeding himself, running, stepping off of anything raised, going down slides at the park.
New Words / Sounds:Â Something that is starting to sound like “Thank you”
Working toward: Hopefully talking more!

How big the boys are getting to be! Max looks like he is very much enjoying life in California; Ethan and Bailey as well. We miss you and cannot wait to see you in July. Luv to all.
Max , you sure are a beautiful little boy . But tell me , what do the two oranges represent ? Miss you and Ethan PAWPAW -TOM
I loved seeing Max “helping” and playing while you washed your fruits and veggies from the Farmer’s Market. I just LOVED going to the Farmer’s Market during our last visit. We miss all of you, which I know is no big surprise. Paw-Paw Dave will have to work on Max and his “no meat eating”. We can’t raise the most delicious meat in Missouri and not have our grandchildren partake. 🙂 Love to all and we will see you all very soon on the beaches of Florida 🙂 🙂 🙂 Maw-maw Danker
